Groups With Children/Youth Not Accompanied by a Parent or Legal Guardian

Leadership:  the leader/director of each group is ultimately responsible for the group's conduct at all times: in the buildings, at meals, on the grounds, and during other activities (both organized and unorganized).

We require that you have adequate leadership to insure a strong program.  For children and youth groups, you should have no less than one adult (21 years or older) for every eight participants.

All participants must be instructed concerning use and care of the facilities and equipment, and must be supervised at all time. (See policies above.)

Camp Mardela is not responsible for the supervision or conduct of your group while you are here.

It is the group leader/ event director's responsibility to see that all policies and guidelines are followed.

First Aid:  Rental groups are responsible for their own first aid.  It is strongly recommended that you designate a first aid provider who is certified in Standard Community First Aid or higher, and Infant/Child/Adult CPR or higher.

IMPORTANT: Leaders of children/youth events must secure and have available at all times a basic health history form for each participant that is not accompanied by a parent or legal guardian.  This form should include basic information such as allergies, medications, special needs, emergency phone numbers, and a consent statement signed by the parent or legal guardian which gives permission to provide emergency medical care if necessary.  Camp Mardela can provide sample forms upon request.
