    While no one is rejected to work or attend Church of God youth camp on the basis of race, color, or creed, the state director of Youth and Discipleship and camp officials reserve the right to accept or reject any application for volunteer work at camps after review of said application reveals that the services of the applicant would not be in the best interest and success of the camp. This application is given every consideration, but its receipt does not imply that the applicant has been accepted as a worker. Applicants are accepted on a trial basis and if, in the final judgment of the camp officials, it is found that the applicant/staff member is not adaptable to the assignment and cannot be reassigned, or that the information given has been misrepresented, the acceptance of this application can be terminated without other cause or reason. In addition, investigation will be made as to your character, general reputation, personal characteristics, and adaptability to the particular position assigned. All applicants are required to undergo training and orientation provided by the State Youth Director’s office and under the supervision of the State Youth Board. Applicants are not required to provide information which is prohibited by Federal, State, or Local law.
