Camper Standards of Behavior

To maintain a wholesome, fun, youth and teen-focused environment free of social pressures and negative influences, Gold Arrow Camp has developed Camper Standards of Behavior to ensure campers treat other campers and staff with kindness and respect, follow camp safety rules and staff members’ instructions given in a group setting, and value other campers’ rights to have a safe, fun experience. Campers who are unable to meet behavior standards will not be permitted to stay at camp. 

Please review the guidelines below before submitting your camper’s application. If you have any questions or are concerned that your child may not be able to meet our Camper Standards, please consult with a Camp Director prior to completing the application. Contact the camp office at 1-800-554-2267 and request a consultation prior to submitting this Camper Application.

Our counseling staff are trained to work with children and teens whose behavior and mental health needs do not negatively impact other campers or require one-on-one supervision or professional psychological intervention during their camp stay. Campers need to have the ability to live with and positively interact in a group of 10 similar-aged peers under the supervision of college-aged counselors.

Please answer the following questions and provide any additional information that may impact your child’s experience at Gold Arrow Camp.
