Life for Youth Camp came about through
prayer, dedication, and sacrifice. The entire facility has been dedicated
to the Lord for your enjoyment and spiritual growth. Please use, but
don’t abuse. Here is a list of rules and information. Make sure these
are relayed to each of your retreat participants. You are welcome to
copy the pdf (linked at the end) for your own handouts.
-
The camp’s office phone number is 772-567-2446. You may give this number
to your retreat participants; however, we are often out of the office assisting
our retreat groups. We have an answering machine and will relay messages
to the group leader as we receive them. We suggest that the group leader
carry a cell phone for contact to and from home.
-
Snack and soda machines are located under the snack shack pavilion and
in the breezeway by the dining hall. The snack and book shop will be open
during scheduled activity times. Additional time available upon request.
-
The golf carts are for LFYC staff only. Please keep off.
-
Any damage such as graffiti, broken windows, etc. will be billed
to your group. Our experience in camping for over 45 years
has shown that shaving cream fights, water balloon wars, toothpaste
fights, and things along these lines only cause hard feelings and
damage to God's facilities. Therefore shaving cream fights, toothpaste
fights, silly string fights, water balloon fights, and items along
these lines ARE NOT PERMITTED here at camp. Please also note
that your group will be charged $50.00 for each fire extinguisher
found in your cabins or meeting rooms that has been discharged.
-
Activities are scheduled for certain times. Make sure everyone
knows when they are. Armbands are required. The wall, waterslide,
boats, and swimming dock areas, etc. are off limits except during
scheduled times. The Spider Web is off limits!
-
Noah's Barn has lots of farm animals you can look at. Please stay
out of the animal enclosures. Animals may bite.
-
Swim only in designated areas during pre-arranged times. A qualified
lifeguard must be present. If providing your own lifeguard, we (LFYC) must
have a copy of their certification on file in advance.
-
Game room equipment in your locker will be accounted for after
you are gone. You are responsible to make sure all equipment is
kept in good condition and returned to your locker before you leave.
Usually we have more than one group here and each group will have
their own locker.
-
Absolutely no food, drinks, glitter, or glue in the carpeted meeting
rooms or chapels. We have pavilions with tables and lights for your snacks,
crafts, and drinks. At one pavilion we have a locked storage area with
refrigeration, sink, and counter space available.
-
Candles are prohibited in all buildings, including meeting rooms and
cabins. This is in accordance with the Indian River County Fire Marshal.
-
Line up on the lakeside of the dining hall for meals. Shoes and
shirts must be worn. If you want to be guaranteed food, be there
on time. Seconds are available if you take your tray back through
the serving line. We start serving seconds as soon as the line ends.
-
Everyone must wear the LFYC armbands to all meals in order to be served.
Please ask participants to have their identification ready to be checked
at the door. Any participant that has lost or destroyed his or her armband
must be accompanied by the retreat leader to discuss cost of replacement.
Extra guests or day guests please call Stephanie in advance for prices.
-
Cabins are segregated. No males in female cabins. No females in male
cabins. Christian courtesy should be practiced towards others sharing the
grounds.
-
DO NOT go into any cabin that is not assigned to your group. Any unauthorized
usage of empty cabins will result in an additional charge for the cleaning.
-
Lights out by 11:00 pm.
-
Absolutely no pets allowed on grounds.
-
ALCOHOL AND DRUGS ARE STRICTLY PROHIBITED. We prefer there be no
smoking while here on the grounds. However, if you must, there is
NO SMOKING IN ANY BUILDING.
-
In case of a medical emergency, LFYC has an AED (Automated External
Defibrillator) located in the dining hall.
-
The gate is closed from 11:00 pm to 7:00 am. The group leader will
have a code for entrance during these times.
