We ask all guests to:

  • Treat others with kindness and respect
  • Use encouraging and appropriate language
  • Honor leaders, volunteers, and fellow families
  • Help create a welcoming atmosphere for everyone

Camp Alive leadership reserves the right to ask individuals or families to leave if behavior becomes disruptive, unsafe, or inconsistent with these values.

CAMP LEADERS

Only adults who have been background checked and selected for Camp Alive are allowed inside the classroom. This ensures the safety of every child and minimizes classroom disruptions. Parents are not allowed inside the classroom areas, unless authorized by a staff member.

LEADER APPLICATION PROCESS

Because we love children and desire to protect them, Alive requires all leaders working with children to complete the following leader application steps:

1. Application: All Camp Alive volunteers must complete an online Application.

2. Reference Check: All volunteers must be referred by an approved church leader that is aligned with Alive’s faith and values prior to serving at Camp Alive.

3. Policies & Procedures: All Camp Alive volunteers are required to review Camp Alive policies and confirm they understand and agree to comply with Camp Alive requirements.

4. Criminal History Check: Camp Alive utilizes the services of a reputable public data screening firm in order to check the background of all volunteers and employees for possible criminal history and/or registered sex offender information. Individuals who have been arrested for, charged with, are on deferred adjudication or regular probation for, or have been convicted of sexually oriented or sex related crimes, either misdemeanor or felony, cannot serve at Camp Alive.

  • Grow closer to Jesus together
