 DISCIPLINE PROCEDURES

In order for our camp to operate smoothly we must set reasonable limitations.  Limits are necessary to maintain safety, protect health and regard the rights of others.  Constructive methods of discipline will be used to promote the child's self-discipline and good behavior.  Serious behavior that affects other children, counselors or supervisors, such as, but not limited to, swearing, fighting, leaving the group or refusal to obey directives of staff, will be handled in the following manner:

 

First Warning:         Written notice of infraction requiring Parent/Guardian signature.

Second Warning:    Parent/Staff/Camper conference and possible temporary suspension.

Third Warning:        Child will be dismissed from camp; fees are non-refundable.

 

Any other discipline problems as determined by the staff may also be reasons for
warnings or termination. In very serious cases, suspension may be the first step.
