We believe a great camp starts with a safe camp.
Safety first. Always. Period. We’re committed to encouraging camper safety throughout the entire mission trip. We work meticulously to provide a ministry environment where young people can serve and connect to Jesus without in a safe environment and without distractions.
Here’s just a few safety steps you have working for you, when you serve with us:
• Camp staff are well screened. Many have served with us for years. Just to be safe, we get references and national background checks on all our staff.
• Campers are taught to use the proper safety equipment. Safety videos are shown to educate participants on project site safety.
• Much of our staff training focuses on making a safe camp for everyone (Each trip includes staff who are first aid and CPR certified).
• Tailgate safety checks are conducted at every Workcamp project site and Site Coaches roam from site to site to help out when needed and to verify that all efforts are being made to “keep it safe.”
• Every project team of 5 or 6 includes at least 1 or 2 adults.
• All adult participants (21+ years of age) have to provide verification they passed a national criminal background check.
• Local medical facilities are identified ahead of time with directions and phone numbers provided to participants.
• The “Code of Conduct” (for both youth and adults) helps everyone understand how to get along together in a safe way—to make it an awesome camp experience! There’s more…much more! We just don’t have the space to cover it all here.
