Your check and registration form must all be mailed at the same time to preregister. Be sure your information for registration is available to you for immediate access.

CONDUCT OF PATHFINDERS AND JUNIOR STAFF AT THE CAMPOREE: Pathfinders and Junior staff are expected to conduct themselves in an appropriate manner at all times. General mischief and destructive conduct cannot be tolerated. Inappropriate conduct may result in loss of points for the offending Pathfinder club and/or sending Pathfinders home at the time of the offense. Some examples of inappropriate behavior: * A lot of noise after Taps, which disturbs other clubs. * Wandering around camping area after taps. * Sneaking out of your tent or campsite after Taps. * Bothering or disturbing anything in another campsite. * Bad language or lack of respect for adult leaders. * Any behavior or conduct that is a safety hazard to others.

7 Timber Ridge Camp 1674 Timber Ridge Road Spencer, IN Phone Fax POLICIES OF TIMBER RIDGE CAMP Timber Ridge Camp is owned and operated by the Indiana Conference of Seventh-day Adventist. Our mission is to provide a place to come apart and relax, enjoy nature and have fun in the great outdoors that God created. Because God created this world, along with us, and rested on the seventh day, we hold the sacred hours from sundown Friday evening to sundown Saturday evening as the Sabbath hours. Because of this, the horses, boat, swimming and some activities are not appropriate for the Sabbath and are not permitted. We do encourage other activities that would be appropriate for these sacred hours. We also strive to maintain Timber Ridge Camp as a clean and healthy environment by encouraging all who enter to maintain safe and healthy lifestyles. In order to help promote these goals, we ask our guest to help us in this endeavor. No smoking is allowed on the property of Timber Ridge Camp or in any of the facilities. No alcoholic beverages are allowed on the property of Timber Ridge Camp. No one is allowed in the horse barn, pastures or corrals unless they have permission of a staff member. All riders of horses must sign an Equine Waiver and Release Form. No double riding or children under 7 allowed on trail rides. Pony rides will be provided for the younger children. No one is allowed to swim or be in the lake unless arrangements have been made and risks understood as we do not keep lifeguards at the waterfront at all times. You must have a release form on file before swimming. Groups will be responsible when there is no lifeguard on duty. Proper care should be given to all facilities and equipment while on the property. Any negligent or willful damage to facilities will result in monetary compensation, either by the individual who caused the damage, or to the group sponsoring the activity. The speed limit while on the grounds is 10 mph. Any dangerous or reckless driving could result in the driver being asked to leave the premises. There shall be no riding on hoods, trunks or any other part of a vehicle outside the passenger compartment. Those riding in trucks should stay seated inside the bed at all times. Park only in designated areas. Vehicles parked in No Parking and Fire Lane areas must be moved immediately, or they will be towed at owner s expense. While we do allow pets on the premises of Timber Ridge Camp, they must remain outside at all times. No pets are allowed in any of the facilities. They must also remain on a leash at all 7

8 times while on the premises. You must also clean up after your pet if it is in an area around buildings or in an area that others are using, and thus becomes a problem. Timber Ridge Camp employees have pets that are not subject to these rules, as this is their home. No food or drinks, except water, are permitted in the basement meeting room of the cafeteria and the Nature Center, or other designated areas. No equipment, chairs or tables are to be removed from any building unless prior permission from camp manager or camp ranger. Due to insurance reasons, Timber Ridge Camp golf carts are for camp staff or Indiana Conference personnel only and therefore not for rent or use by others.

A RELEASE AND WAIVER OF LIABILITY AND INDEMNITY AGREEMENT must be signed for each guest on the grounds of Timber Ridge Camp, even if only visiting someone.
