                                         GIRLS – JULY 20 – 25

  Dear Campers & Parents,
    We are excitedly anticipating our 70th year of Conservation Camp.  
As always, our goals are to help each child develop skills in conservation, 
teamwork, leadership, sportsmanship and an awareness of the outdoors.  
In order for us to provide for the safety and well-being of our campers 
while we work to accomplish these goals, we have the following rules:

1. Campers must be 9-14 years old – they must have
had their 9th birthday and not yet reached their 15th.

2. Registration forms and the $180.00 camper’s fee
must be returned ONLY to C.O. Mollenhour Conservation 
Camp, Camp Registration, 12522 S 600 W Silver Lake, IN
46982 no later than July 1, 2008.  The camp is limited 
to the first 80 registrations.  Payment must be made upon 
registration.  If an organization or individual other 
than a parent or guardian is sponsoring a camper, a check 
or a letter from the sponsor with the sponsor’s name and 
phone number included MUST accompany the registration 
form.

3. Check-in will begin at 2:30 P.M. on Sunday. 
Please – no early check-in’s!

4. No camper will be admitted without a 
signed “Consent for Medical Treatment” form on file to be
turned in at registration.

5. The camp Director should be informed if any child has 
special needs so that consideration can be made towards
those needs. To contact campers, (EMERGENCY ONLY!!) 
1-260-352-2367.

6. If there is a valid reason that a camper must leave or
be visited by parents during this week, special 
arrangements need to be made with the Camp Director 
during the check-in time.  Should an emergency arise 
during the week, please call the camp to inform the 
director of your needs.  Separation of the child from the 
parent is part of the camp experience.

7. Each camper is to provide a sleeping bag, pillow, 
extra blankets, extra towels, toilet articles, insect 
repellent, sun screen, flashlight, bathing trunks, one 
piece swim suits (girls), clothing for five days and rain 
gear.  Flip-flops are to be worn to and from the showers 
ONLY!!!!!  Athletic equipment or fishing gear may be 
brought to camp, but the camper must assume full 
responsibility for these items.  The camp cannot be 
responsible for lost or stolen items.  Please make sure 
all items are marked with your child’s name.

8. DO NOT BRING BLOW DRYERS, VIDEO GAMES, RADIOS, KNIVES,
POP, MONEY OR FOOD.  Please do not send items of value 
with your child.

9. Swimming is only allowed during specified times and 
under the supervision of a lifeguard.  (We use the “buddy 
system” as an additional safety measure.)

10. Each camper is expected to help keep the camp clean 
and in working order as well as cooperate with 
counselors, other staff and fellow campers.  Any damage 
to camp property will be the responsibility of the
camper’s parent or guardian.

11. We will make every effort to make each camper’s stay 
an enjoyable one, but cooperation is very important.  The 
Camp Director reserves the right to send a camper home at
the parents expense, if they become unmanageable.

12. Rules for acceptance and participation in the program 
is the same for everyone without regard to race, color,
sex, age, religion, disability or national origin.  Any
person who believes he has been discriminated against in
any USDA-related activity should write to:  Secretary of 
Agriculture Washington, DC  20250.

13. THE AWARDS CEREMONY AND PICK-UP WILL BE ON FRIDAY AT 
6:00 P.M. SHARP!  There will be no dinner served Friday
evening.  PLEASE BE PROMPT.

14. Camp CD’s will be made with pictures taken through
out the week—they are $10.00—we will mail them to you.
Please pay at registration.
