We will make every reasonable effort to keep a child in Kroc Camp. If needed, Kroc Staff will consult with parents to make a plan of action for the child to be held to.

I give permission to The Salvation Army to use photographs or videos in which my child appears for education and public relations purposes.
Camper safety is our top priority. Campers are expected to follow the behavioral standards of Safe, Trustworthy, Accountable,
Respectful, and Together (S.T.A.R.T.) in addition to keeping hands and feet to themselves, listening to all instructions and staying with the group. I understand that if my child does not adhere to these expectations, disciplinary consequences will occur. Repeat or more serious acts such as fighting, theft, and possession of weapons/drugs will result in immediate suspension or expulsion.
