CYC POLICY

1. ACCIDENT INSURANCE - Campers are covered by a limited accident policy while at camp.  This does not cover any pre-existing illness or illness incurred while here.  It is strictly an accident policy.  This is a secondary policy, it will pay only after your insurance has been filed.

2. ADMISSION POLICY - Crusader Youth Camp is owned and operated by the Pentecostal Free Will Baptist Church, Inc.  However, it is open to all who are willing to maintain the camp's Christian standard.  We do not discriminate against any person regardless of race, color or national origin.

3. ARRIVAL & DEPARTURE TIME - On the day designated for the beginning of your week of camp, you should arrive on the campus between 3:00 and 5:00 PM.  The camp ends on Friday morning at 11:00 AM at the PFWB Tabernacle with a closing program and awards ceremony.  Someone should be present to pick you up at that time.

4. LOCATION - CYC is located two miles south of Dunn at exit 71.  Leave I-95 and head east for approximately 1/4 mile.  Turn left at the cross-roads, go for 1/4 mile, and the camp entrance will be on your right (Bud Hawkins Rd). Visit the Contact Page for more info.

5. TELEPHONE CALLS - The Camp phone number is 910-891-4236. A seasonal phone is installed on the camp site and is heavily used for business purposes. In the event of an emergency, campers will be allowed (with a staff member present) to use the camp phone to call home. Parents my call and leave a message with a staff member and we will have the camper return the call at a convenient time.

CELL PHONES are permitted for parent/camper communication only and may be used, with permission, under the supervision of a staff member if a need arises. At all other times the phones should be turned off and put away. Campers are not to use their phones to communicate with other campers or any person off campus except their parents unless approved and supervised by a staff member.

CYC is not responsible for any lost, stolen or damaged phones.

6. TUITION, DISCOUNTS & REFUNDS - The total remaining balance of your tuition is due at the registration on the day camp begins.  For accurate recordkeeping, an application must be filed for every camper.  If your church is paying your way, you must present a signed statement by the responsible party upon registration.

A refund of any unused portion of your tuition, less registration fee, will be given in the event a camper has to leave the camp because of injury, or emergency, which, in the opinion of the director, is beyond the camper's or parents' control.  No refund will be given when the camper leaves the camp because of homesickness, discipline, family vacations, etc.  No discount will be given for those arriving late.

7. VISITORS - Crusader Youth Camp maintains a very active schedule. Experiences have taught us that campers are happiest when they are involved in meaningful activity.  Therefore, off campus visitors are discouraged.  When a visitor does come on campus, he / she must immediately check  in with the Camp Director or Program Director to receive permission to be on campus.  All visitors must obey all camp rules and leave before lights out.  A $5.00 donation for each visitor meal would be appreciated.

Food must not be brought on campus by visitors.  Overnight visitors are not permitted with out Camp Director's prior approval.

8. WHAT NOT TO BRING - I-pods, MP3s, video games (or other electronic devices, matches, lighters, any form of tobacco, weapons, alcohol, drugs or medications (except as noted on the application) or questionable reading material. 

CYC is not responsible for lost, stolen or damaged items.

9. WHAT TO BRING - Bed linens, pillow, blanket, bath linens, personal hygiene items, pajamas, swim suit (1 piece), casual knee-length clothing, sneakers, Bible, camera, flashlight, ball glove and umbrella.

Laundry Service is NOT available, so be sure to bring enough for all week!!

10. SPENDING MONEY - The Trading Post sells candy, drinks, stamps, camp shirts, etc.  While the amount to bring is up to the individual, the average is approximately $20.00 per person.  CYC T-shirts will be $12.00.

 

 

CYC GUIDELINES

All guidelines are necessary to assure a proper flow within this Christian community. Any exception to these guidelines or additional guidelines deemed necessary becomes effective upon announcement by the Camp Director. The general position of the administration is that we expect everyone to live up to the Christian standard of behavior. Specific guidelines include the following:

1. THE CAMP AREA - Camp Boundaries will be further explained in the orientation session.  Once a person arrives on campus, he is not permitted to leave without the director's permission.  If vehicles are driven to the camp, they must be parked in the designated area, locked and not returned to until the end of the camp on Friday.

2. OFF LIMITS - This includes:

a. The boys' room is off limits for the girls and the girls' room is off limits for the boys'.
b. The parking lot is off limits during the camp schedule.
c. The barn & riding area are off limits except during designated riding hours.
d. The dining room, kitchen, classroom area, and chapel are off limits, except as designated in the schedule or on work detail.
e. You may NOT be outside of your room after lights out.
f. It is off limits to go beyond the ditch in the wooded area and the softball field and beyond the pasture toward the college.

3. SOCIAL CONTACT - CYC is a great place to make new friends.  However, we request that you spend time with the entire group and not isolate yourselves with one or two other people.  We want you to be friends with everyone, but not become overly friendly with anyone.  We expect NO physical contact between members of the opposite sex. Fighting and bullying is not acceptable behavior at CYC.

4. MEALS - Remember table etiquette at all times while in the dining hall. We want you to relax and enjoy your meal.  Fellowship with those near you, avoiding the need to talk loud to those at other tables.  When you finish your meal, follow the designated procedure in putting up trays, etc.  You may then leave the dining hall quietly unless instructions are given for you to remain for announcements or mail call.  Everyone is required to attend meals.  Food and drinks are not permitted in the cabins except as authorized by the nurse.  In NO case is water, food or drinks to be taken into the great room of the boys' or girls' dorms.

5. DRESS CODE - The camper should note that this is a church camp and the dress code is conservative.  We permit pants and/or KNEE LENGTH shorts for boys and girls. Clothing above the knees WILL NOT BE PERMITTED.   We do not permit going without shirts, wearing halters, tank tops, or garments that leave a midriff or cleavage exposed, including see-through garments.  Clothing with offensive prints is not allowed. This applies to banquet attire also. Shoes must be worn at all times. At no time should you be seen outside of your cabin without clothing in keeping with this policy.

6. EVERYBODY MUST

a. Respect and cooperate with all staff members and campers.
b. Participate in the camp schedule giving particular attention to being on time for each activity.  A daily schedule will be furnished upon registration.
c. Do your fair share in keeping the grounds, room, and equipment clean, in place, and workable at all times.
