Commitment To Care Program

  • No teasing, no name calling or putdowns
  • Everyone feels safe, cared for and treated with kindness
  • Everyone is included in all activities with praise just for trying
  • Before they even arrive, we ask campers to sign this pledge
  • When kids sign, they promise to do their best to be supportive of others at Camp
  • Do they occasionally slip up and forget what they pledged? Hey, they’re kids!
  • But we’re always there to remind them what they promised
  • Just one thing that makes Camp Shane so unique

T.E.A.M. Program

How We Establish a Whole New Style of Getting Along:

  • Specific activities and rewards to stress “We’re all part of the T.E.A.M.”
  • Oh, yes, it means “Together Everyone Achieves More”
  • For some campers – a refreshing new style of getting along with each other
  • Better than at school, better than in the neighborhood
  • Feeling and being included creates new levels of self-esteem
  • Guess what follows?  Achievement and weight losses at Camp Shane!
