Camping Trip ‘10
“CHRISTIAN CONDUCT CONTRACT”
Because I am a child of God and a member of Portside Student Ministries...
1. I will obey and show respect toward Pastor Brian and all other chaperones, and all campground staff. I will adhere to all rules
and guidelines set up by Pastor Brian, Portside leaders, and campground Staff.
2. I will respect the rights and property of others, and display a patient, Christian attitude toward those in my group as well as
those in the other groups present.
3. I will be kind to everyone I come in contact with at Gettysburg campground while on this trip.
4. I will not leave the campground without asking permission, period. I will never leave the areas that my chaperone gives
permission for me to be.
5. I will not leave the campsite after designated lights out time and remain quiet during designated hours.
6. I will attend and participate in all required events, keeping in mind that sufficient free time will be scheduled for my
enjoyment.
7. I will not deliberately cause any damage to anything. I realize that I am financially responsible for any damage I may cause
directly or indirectly to campground property or to another’s personal property. Any materials brought on this trip for the sole
purpose of trashing someone's property will be confiscated and will belong to Pastor Brian.
8. I realize that I am a representative of Portside Student Ministries and the Westminster Church of God and I will conduct
myself in a manner that would make my parents, pastor and leadership proud of me. I will make a special effort to promote good
relations between our group.
9. If one of my possessions is damaged or stolen, or I feel a leader is treating me unfairly, or I am unhappy for any reason, I will
notify Pastor Brian instead of complaining to everyone else. (Thou shall not gripe!!)
10. I will do everything in my power to assure that everyone in my tent and, when possible, everyone in our group has a good
time.
11. I will use common sense to abide by obvious rules of Christian conduct, and will not do anything contrary to the teachings of
God’s Word.
12. I will not participate in any activity, prank, or practical joke that might offend someone, risk physical harm, cause property
damage, or in any way violate any of the rules of Gettysburg campground, Pastor Brian, our chaperones, or God.
13. I will allow anyone to take a picture or shoot video of me without making it difficult, such as turning my head and avoiding
the memory of a lifetime.
14. I realize this trip is a non-dating experience. I will respect the opposite sex with my conduct and discussion. I will focus my
attention towards relationship not romance. I understand that holding hands, hugging, kissing, lapsitting, pairing up and
separating from the group and any inappropriate conduct is prohibited.
15. Please don’t make the weekend un-enjoyable for staff by pushing the boundaries of #14!!
** I, the undersigned, agree to abide by this code of conduct to the best of my ability, so help me God.
