Awareness of Risks for Camp Outings
Camp outings are a special part of The Brigade program. The elements that make camp a unique experience, such as being outdoors, in
and around water and traveling by bus, automobile and powerboat, can cause loss or damage to equipment, injury, illness and even death.
We want all participants to know in advance what to expect and what some of the potential risks are by participating in camp outings.
The following describes some, but not all, of the activities with risks: Activities may include games involving running, group initiative problems and other rigorous physical adventure activities. Participants may be outdoors for periods of time exposed to wind, rain, snow, sun and other natural elements. If doing a ropes, climbing or challenge course, participants may be climbing trees or walking on cables and logs which are suspended in the air. If riding in powerboats or boats not under power there may be exposure to natural conditions for prolonged periods of time, including the possibility of drowning. Camps also expose participants to fire and wildlife, to potentially slippery paths and to bunk beds from which participants could fall.
I have read and understand this document and I agree with the terms in their entirety.
