WHAT TO BRING TO CAMP!

To help eliminate lost articles, we recommend that each thing you bring be marked with your name. Lost articles are not returned unless we receive a request and the article can be located. FHC will not be responsible to pay any shipping costs to return the items. At the close of camp, unclaimed lost and found articles are given to needy children.

Fair Haven Camps’ dress code policy asks that you bring modest clothing. The word “modest” is defined as “humble, bashful, shy, and held back by a sense of what is fit and proper, decent, not calling attention to one’s body.”

1. We do not allow low/immodest cut shirts, spaghetti strap tanks or shirts that show the stomach.

2. Shorts and skirts must be loose fitting and of  FINGER-TIP length.
