Campers will be divided into categories: daredevil, medium, limited rides and no rides.
Small groups: campers 12 and older may go on their own in smaller groups (minimum of 2).
Small groups: check in periodically with the original group (plan check points throughout the day).
Small groups: give your cell phone numbers to your counselors.
Campers will wear the Midwest Diocese Camp t-shirt the entire day.
No camper may leave the group to be on their own.
Always use the bathroom with a partner - never use it alone.
If you get separated from your group: STOP and look around for the colored t-shirts that campers are wearing--don't walk around and try to find your group; stay where you are because your group will come back and find you.
When the group notices that a camper is missing: stop and go back to the last area where you remember seeing that camper.
If you are lost and feel uncomfortable -- immediately contact any park worker and tell them you are lost. The park worker will take you to a building and will then contact us. We will know where to find you and come for you.
At exactly 6:00 p.m. all campers will meet for dinner outside of the front gates next to the flags. Give yourself plenty of time to get to the gates in order to be on time for dinner. Dinner prayer will begin at exactly 6 p.m. Don't be late!
The evenings get cold at Six Flags. Plan your water rides for the beginning of your day.
There is complimentary water available at all food stands - drink plenty of water during the day, especially if it is a hot day.
Bring a sweatshirt for the cool evenings; you can pick it up at dinner time.
We will take any prizes you won before dinner back to camp; you can collect them when you return to camp.
The park closes at 10 p.m. Meet at the flags at 9:45 p.m. Give yourself plenty of time to get to the flags by 9:45 p.m. Don't be late!
