PARENT/GUARDIAN AUTHORIZATION

To the best of my knowledge, my child is in good health and is able to participate in all camp activities, except any conditions listed above. I will inform Camp Triumph if my child becomes exposed to any serious, or infectious diseases (i.e. vomiting/diarrhea, COVID-19), or respiratory illnesses within four weeks of attending camp. I will notify camp staff promptly of any changes to the above medical information. I authorize the staff of Camp Triumph to seek medical advice and services, as may be deemed necessary for the health and safety of my child/ward, in the event that the contact provided cannot be reached in a timely manner. This may include standard first aid, transportation to hospital, ambulance service and treatment in the emergency department. I agree to accept financial responsibility in excess of the benefits provided by Provincial Insurance for any costs incurred by Camp Triumph in the care of my child.

HOMESICKNESS POLICY

Homesickness is a normal reaction for some when leaving home. If there are signs of homesickness, the Director will work closely with the camper, the counsellors, and the parents/guardians to help the camper successfully adjust to being away from home. In the unlikely event that the Director decides that continuing the camping experience would not be a suitable choice for the camper, the parents/guardians will be contacted. Please refrain from calling to directly contact your child. But do feel free to contact the Director.

We will do everything appropriate to satisfy your child’s needs. If there is any difficulty with your child’s adjustment to camp you will be informed promptly. Experience has shown that once campers have been set up in their cabins and parents have met their counsellors, a quick departure works best.

WAIVER

The safety and well being of your child will be monitored and supervised in all camp activities and at all times. I acknowledge my son/daughter will be participating in, but not limited to, the following activities: campfire, art's and crafts, soccer, kayaking, swimming, lacrosse, archery, basketball, ball hockey, camp-wide games, volleyball, tennis, gaga ball, and the challenge course. These activities will be supervised and provided in a safe environment.

Regardless of swimming ability, all campers are only permitted to swim during designated times, with qualified supervision. The challenge course is a well-controlled activity and is designed to be challenging, as well as educational and loads of fun. All Camp Triumph activities are run by trained staff, with the safety and enjoyment of your child paramount.

I recognize and acknowledge the risk of injury or disability cannot be totally eliminated. My child does not have any existing medical conditions that should exclude him/her from any activities, except as indicated. My child is participating with the knowledge of potential risk.

MEDIA RELEASE

For photographs and video images taken of my child by or for Camp Triumph, I grant to Camp Triumph:

Copyright and/or use of photographic representations of my child in various forms of media used by photographers and computer artists to assist the Camp, including to use in publicity, promotion, camp advancement, marketing, and/or educational purposes including the use of any printed or multi-media materials for Camp Triumph. A child's name will not be used unless parential/guardian consent is given.

I hereby realize and accept that my child is participating on a voluntary basis and will not receive financial remuneration from the photographer, Camp Triumph or any firm publishing and/or distributing the finished product.

CAMPER CODE OF CONDUCT

Camp Triumph has a commitment to providing a valuable, meaningful, and enriching camping experience for all our campers. To assist us in offering the best camp experience we possibly can, please abide by the following camper code of conduct. In order to offer our camps, we must maintain a safe and nurturing environment for everyone.

Respect yourself. Campers are expected, in accordance with their age, to take appropriate care of themselves by maintaining personal hygiene, getting sufficient sleep, dressing appropriately, eating properly, wearing sunscreen, and not taking unnecessary risks.

Respect others. Camp Triumph expect campers to treat one another, our staff, and visitors with courtesy and respect at all times so that everyone feels safe and comfortable.

Respect the environment. Camp Triumph has worked very hard to build and maintain its facility and equipment. It exists for campers to help make the camping experience wonderful. Please respect and take care of the facility and equipment.

Rules of Conduct
Any camper that breaks any of the following rules, will be sent home immediately:

Smoking, alcohol, and illicit drugs are strictly prohibited at Camp Triumph.

Weapons or any implement that our staff deem dangerous or potentially dangerous are strictly prohibited.

Any camper that breaks any of the following rules MAY be sent home based on the seriousness of the incident and the discretion of the Directors:

Inappropriate behaviour, such as bullying, teasing, swearing, verbal harassment, physical harassment, acts of aggression, pranks, practical jokes or disrespect for other people or the environment are not tolerated. Conversations will be had with the camper and all those directly invovled in the incident to determine what action is to be taken to resolve the situation and to ensure it will not reoccur.

Possession and use of cell phones by campers at camp is prohibited.
Stealing or borrowing other people's possessions without their consent will not be tolerated.
Vandalizing, defacing, or damage to camp property and equipment is a serious offence and will not be tolerated. You will be held responsible for the cost of repair or replacement, including labour costs.
Male and female campers may not visit each other's cabins at any time. Campers should only be in his/her cabin when instructed to be (i.e. to change between activities/meals and to sleep).
For allergy, equality, health, and food budgeting reasons, campers are NOT permitted to bring snacks and/or candy with them to camp.

The more specific rules of camp will be explained to all campers. These are all necessary for a safe, happy, and fun time for all.

Camp Triumph is committed to preserving the spirit of camp.
Please ensure your child does NOT bring a cellphone to camp.

Camp Triumph is 100% free for campers.

A Camp Triumph experience costs more than $600 per camper ($750 for Leadership Campers). With just one full-time employee and one full-time volunteer, our small staff works throughout the off-season applying for grants, hosting fundraisers, and organizing campaigns to ensure all qualifying campers can attend for free; a cornerstone of Camp Triumph that we are very proud of. With no government funding or major sponsors, our capacity is determined by donations and fundraising dollars that we work hard to secure for our often un-recognized population of campers. As a registered charity, we welcome and encourage donations of any denomination to accompany a child's holding deposit. Together we can ensure more children are able to benefit from everything Camp Triumph has to offer. Thank you!
