Jesus Christ is to be glorified in everything we do. Camp workers will not teach, condone, or practice any form of substance abuse which includes Recreational Non-Prescription Drug Use, Drunkenness, and Tobacco use, or view sexually explicit or pornographic materials either on or off duty. We ask for and expect complete commitment on this. We expect integrity, trust, and honesty. We strive for a ministry where all members trust each other and believe the best about one anothers actions and intentions. Any deviation from the camp's expectations, policies, and practices by a camper or fellow camp worker creates hurt and potentially danger for others and must be reported to the apporpriate leaders. Such would be reported to the director for prayerful and loving consideration and action. When these are dealt with openly and considerately, God can use the situations to produce growth in the life of each person concerned.
