Conduct And Safety
At Camp Christian Echoes, we strive to allow every camper the opportunity for a safe, fun-filled, structured, and spiritually
uplifting camping experience:
A fun-filled, spiritually charged adventure is better facilitated when campers know their boundaries. Most importantly, all campers will be treated, and in turn, should treat others in a Christ-like manner.
By attending camp, the camper and parents/guardians agree that the camper will abide by these rules while at camp:
All electronic devices are prohibited: cell phones, smart watches, electronic games, media players, video players, laptops, and tablets, etc. Any electronic devices brought to the camp will be taken up and stored for the duration of the camp session.
