Camp Rules & Expectations

We are excitedly anticipating Conservation Camp 2027!  As always, our goals are to help each child develop skills in conservation, teamwork, leadership, sportsmanship and an awareness of the outdoors.  In order for us to provide for the safety and well being of our campers while we work to accomplish these goals, we have the following rules:

  • Campers must be 9-14 years old – they must have had their 9th birthday and not yet reached their 15th. 

  • Registration forms and the $275.00 camper’s fee must be submitted through our sign up page.  The camp is limited to the first 80 registrations.  We operate on a first come, first serve basis, so please get your registrations in early.

  • Payment must be made upon registration.  If an organization or individual other than a parent or guardian is sponsoring a camper, a check or a letter from the sponsor with the sponsor’s name and phone number included MUST accompany the registration form.

  • Check-in will begin at 2:30 P.M. on Sunday.  No early check-in’s!

  • No camper will be admitted without a signed Consent for Medical Treatment or Health Screening.

  • The camp Director should be informed at time of registration if any child has special needs so that consideration can be made toward those needs.

  • There will be no check outs during camp week. Should an emergency arise during the week, please call the camp to inform the director of your needs. Separation of the child from the parent is part of the camp experience.

  • THE AWARDS CEREMONY AND PICK-UP WILL BE ON FRIDAY AT 4:00 P.M. There will be no dinner served Friday evening. PLEASE BE PROMPT.

  • Each camper is to provide the following items listed below in the what to bring section.​

  • Please review the list below on what NOT to bring.

  • Swimming is only allowed during specified times and under the supervision of a lifeguard. (We use the “buddy system” as an additional safety measure.)

  • Each camper is expected to help keep the camp clean and in working order as well as cooperate with counselors, other staff and fellow campers. Any damage to camp property will be the responsibility of the camper’s parent or guardian.

  • We will make every effort to make each camper’s stay an enjoyable one, but cooperation is very important. The Camp Director reserves the right to send a camper home at the parents’ expense, if they become unmanageable.

  • Rules for acceptance and participation in the program is the same for everyone without regard to race, color, sex, age, religion, disability or national origin. Any person who believes he has been discriminated against in any USDA-related activity should write to: Secretary of Agriculture Washington, DC 20250.
