But if children do have them during camp, they need to be put away during activities, and our leaders will be checking to see what children are doing on their phones.

We are not responsible for lost, stolen or damaged electronic devices.
RULE BREAKING:
We want to keep every child safe and for them to have fun while at Summer Fun. It is also important that our Camp Staff and external faciltiators are respected. Please talk to your child about the above rules each morning before Camp. Please emphasize we are the ones taking care of them and keeping them safe, so it's important they listen to us and stay with us throughout the entire time at Camp. Please tell your child that they are safe to come and talk to any of our Summer Fun staff about anything while at Camp.
If a child is consistently not listening, or being disrespectful or physically harmful to our Summer Fun staff, leaders, bus drivers, external facilitators, or other children...we reserve the right to ask that child to not participate in the next day's activity. There needs to be consequences to the type of actions listed above. Summer Fun is a privilege, not a right.
