2017 Fall Retreat Riverland Hills Baptist Church Guidelines 1. I understand that I need to respect the authority of the Youth Ministry Team and Chaperones. I understand they have the authority to put in place additional guidelines specific to certain retreats and events. I will honor these rules as well as the ones below. 2. I understand that there will be no whining or complaining on this trip! (See Phil. 2:14) 3. I understand and will honor the established electronics guidelines. Cell phones and iPods will be allowed, but only at appropriate times. Portable gaming systems are prohibited for this event. 4. I understand that, for safety reasons, I must stay in groups of 3 or more people at all times. Also, for safety, I will wear a seatbelt at all times while in a vehicle. 5. All personal items are brought are AT YOUR OWN RISK. Each Individual is responsible for keeping up with his/her own personal items. 6. I understand the need for separate sleeping arrangements, and will honor this by never entering the room of a person of the opposite sex. I understand that I need to abstain from public or private displays of affection. 7. I understand that I am to treat the property of others with respect and will not damage the place we are staying or another persons’ personal belongings. I understand I am obligated to pay for the replacement/repair of items I have participated in damaging. 8. I understand that I cannot be outside of my room after “lights out.” I will obey curfew and be on time for all activities. 9. I understand that I’m not allowed to POSSESS or USE tobacco, alcohol, or any other type of drugs. I understand that I’m not allowed to POSSESS or USE any weapon or fireworks. 10.

Remember that you are a representative of your Lord, Jesus Christ, your family, your church, & yourself at all times. Failure to comply with these rules may result in immediate return home or will be dealt with appropriately by Zakk.
CAMP MCCALL ASSUMPTION OF RISK, WAIVER AND RELEASE OF LIABILITY, AND HOLD HARMLESS/ INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT I am the custodial parent and/or legal guardian of the minor child listed below. For valuable consideration received, including but not limited to my minor child being allowed to participate in the Activities (as defined below), the receipt and sufficiency of which are acknowledged, I, for myself and on behalf of the minor child, agree to the following terms and conditions. I understand that the activities available at Camp McCall are wide-ranging and include, but are not necessarily limited to: basketball, softball, ultimate frisbee, disc golf, soccer, extremo-ball, wiffle ball, dodgeball, flag football, gym games, ballfield games, swimming, canoeing, kayaking, stand-up paddleboards, canoe sinking, riflery, archery, zip lines, ropes courses, hiking and backpacking (including in wilderness areas), rock climbing, rappelling, kayaking, and craft making and building (collectively, the “Activities”). There are, of course, inherent risks with participating in these Activities. I understand that participation in the Activities is optional, as no child is required to participate in any activity, and a child should only participate in those Activities with which they and their parents/guardian are comfortable. I am fully aware of the risks, dangers, and other hazards connected with the Activities, including physical injury or even death, and except as listed below, I nevertheless elect to allow my child to participate, knowing that the Activities may be hazardous to my child and his/her property.
