assist campers who have limited bowel and bladder control due to their medical condition/s and

ACCEPT CAMPERS WHO ARE SIMPLY NOT TOILET TRAINED AND ARE UNABLE TO
ASK FOR HELP BEFORE SOILING THEMSELVES.

Be free of medical conditions that, in the opinion of our medical staff, may represent a danger to
himself/herself or others. Each applicant will be judged on an individual basis, but as a general
