Summer Camp Safety
As a parent, it’s often the first thing you ask about – Is camp safe?
PHYSICAL CAMP SAFETY, A 24/7 COMMITMENT – YOUR SPECIAL ASSURANCE OF OUR STANDARDS
- Beautiful properties with extensive facilities
- Equipment, buildings and grounds in top-notch condition
- The Camp Director inspects every aspect of Camp daily
- Counselors sleep in the same cabins/dorms as the campers
- Children are never left alone without supervision
- Many mature adults on staff and many former campers
COMMINTMENT 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!
