Camper Covenant with the Christian Church in Tennessee for Bethany Hills Camp
- I will be respectful to all persons and the camp environment at all times.
- I understand that possession of drugs, alcohol, tobacco, fireworks, or weaponry of any sort (knives, firearms, etc.) while at camp is prohibited and I will be sent home if these items are found in my possession.
- I understand that the camp and conference center is not responsible for lost, stolen or damaged items.
- I covenant to enjoy camp as an opportunity to come to know God through nature and through other people. I will participate in all camp activities, so I can get the most out of camp.
- I understand that leaving camp in the middle of a session is disruptive to the community and is prohibited unless in case of illness or family emergency and permission is granted by the camp director.
- I will not damage camp property and will be held financially responsible for any repairs needed as a result of my actions.
- I understand that sneaking out of my cabin/room after lights-out will result in a one-year suspension from all camp activities and I will be sent home.
- I understand that food should not be brought to camp by campers. Any treats brought by campers or sent from home may be stored in the kitchen and shared with the group.
- I understand that I may be sent home for behaving consistently in a way that does not reflect Christian love and grace.
- Cell phone usage is not allowed during camp for grades 8 and under. I understand that camps at Bethany Hills offer all campers the best environment when operated as a closed community. In this day of electronics, CCTN and the Commission on Camp and Conference understands that many campers use cell phones for many tools other than communications (camera, alarm, music, etc.) and for emergencies. It is for this reason that I may bring my cell phone to camp with the understanding that except for a life-threatening emergency, I will not make or receive calls, post photographs or messages on social networks or the internet or receive or send texts while camp is in session. I also covenant to listen to music from my phone or other music devices (i.e. IPod, MP3) with personal headphones only during rest times and bed times.
