Camper Behavior — The Three R’s

It is our commitment to provide a rich and wonderful experience for all participants. To assist us in

offering the best experience we possibly can, please review our camper code of conduct with your

child. We want to create a safe and nurturing environment for everyone!

Generally these rules fall under what we refer to as the three “R’s”

Respect yourself. All participants are expected, in accordance with their age, to take appropriate

care of themselves (personal hygiene, dressing warmly and appropriately)

Respect the environment. Camp Kawartha’s Environment Centre is located on Trent University’s

Wildlife Sanctuary. We want youth to be stewards of this area for future generations.

Respect others. We expect all participants to treat one another, and our staff, with courtesy and

respect.

Please review the full Camper Code of Conduct online at (We reserve the right to dismiss a participant

who does not comply with our Code of Conduct.)
