Internet Photo Policy
We have had internet photos during camp in the past and found that the staff we
hired to add photos to the Internet would continually end up involved in camper
support. Here, we naturally put all of our eggs into the camper basket.
We have found trying to run an internet photo service a distraction or a
pressure that we feel draws us from the mission. It requires lots of time
and oversight.
We have great staff and we work to answer all of the campers needs. When we have extra staff, we focus on the campers. It is our mission; it is our calling. When we do superb work with the campers, we feel marketing will take care of its self. We will put any photos we have on the net after camp or during camp if we get the opportunity. Thanks.
