Camper Code of Conduct — expectations for behavior and community
As a Camper, I agree to conduct myself with respect towards other campers, instructors, and camp staff, so that I myself may be respected. I will follow instructions from ANY adult supervisors or camp staff. I will not participate in any act of violence. I understand that acts of violence will not be tolerated and that firearms and weapons, including pocket knives, are prohibited.
Each day at Wildlife Camp runs from breakfast at 7:30 AM through two three-hour sessions of hands-on classes, followed by 2+ hours of free recreation, supper, an evening assembly, and a night activity. Cabin check is at 10:00 PM. Campers arrive Sunday for check-in at Mobley Hall and depart Thursday after a closing ceremony.
The FFA Wildlife Camp is a week-long residential summer camp for boys and girls. The program has two primary goals: 1) To increase safety, awareness, and appreciation of wildlife and outdoor sports among young boys and girls. This will be done in a dynamic, hands-on environment. 2) To instill core character values such as integrity, respect, responsibility, and commitment.
Campers will stay in air conditioned bunk cabins. The cabins have twin bunk beds and a bathroom with multiple sinks, stall showers, and stall toilets. The counselors have their own room in the cabin with a separate bathroom.
Requests for cabin assignments can be made prior to camp by requesting it on the registration form. Requests must be sent in before the deadline set by the program coordinator and no requests are guaranteed.
Volunteer parents earn a scholarship for their child
Parents/Guardians can serve as volunteers helping in various classes or with campers. Volunteers that stay the entire week will receive one scholarship for a child to attend camp. Volunteers must complete a volunteer application and a background check to be considered.
