Safe Play in Camps

 Announcement Icon Summer Camp Team Message

The Town of East Gwillimbury is committed to providing fun, safe, and engaging recreational program opportunities to residents and community members. All participants attending programs are expected to participate and behave in a way that fosters safety to themselves and others. There are certain behavioural expectations that are required to be met by our participants to ensure that all campers have a rewarding, memorable, and fun experience while participating in our programs.

The Safe Play in Camps procedure outlines behavioural expectations that the Town of East Gwillimbury has within programs, in addition to the follow-up steps taken when behaviour expectations are not met. Participants in our programs are also expected to abide by the Town of East Gwillimbury’s Camp Code of Conduct.

This includes (but is not limited to) the following:

  • Respect other participants, staff, and volunteers

  • Respect the Town of East Gwillimbury buildings and property

  • Respect other’s personal space and belongings

  • Use appropriate language with Town staff, volunteers, other registered participants, and the public

  • Stay with the group

  • Remain hands off

  • Follow instruction from Town of East Gwillimbury staff members and volunteers

  • Contribute to a safe, friendly, and productive environment that cares for everyone 

To promote a safe and successful program environment, East Gwillimbury’s recreation staff are committed to working with participants and implementing tools and strategies to handling conflict, making feasible adaptations when necessary, and for creating a successful experience for all.

If your child has behavioural concerns, please contact the Recreation Coordinator and notify them of triggers and methods that are helpful for your child. It is our goal to make camp enjoyable for everyone!

Sincerely,

The Town of East Gwillimbury Summer Camp Team
