EMAIL OF MAIN CAMP PERSONNEL

• The main gates will be locked and teachers/trainers are on night sentry.

2. Will students be forced to participate in the high elements?

• Students are encouraged to try and it’s ‘challenge by choice’. Students will be given time to overcome their fears and ultimately their choice will be respected.
