La Foret Camp General Rules

We’re excited to use La Foret as our Summer School facility this year, but please remember that the camp is new to all of us, including to the members of the committee. Therefore, we beg for your cooperation, understanding and patience during the weekend. Please refer to the Camp’s General Rules below, and remember that we have to adhere strictly to those guidelines and respect them during our stay. Obviously, item #14 does not pertain to our group or our guests. 🙂

  1. Fires may be burned only in regular fireplaces.  Do not remove any ash or wood from the fireplaces.
  2. Candles may be burned in the Chapel and meeting spaces but only with adult supervision.  All candles must have a leak proof base to prevent wax from dripping on the floor or altar.
  3. Please drive only on regular roads. Speed limit is 5 MPH.
  4. Please park only in designated areas or along the road.  Help us protect our forest.
  5. No pets allowed.
  6. You may move tables, chairs, furniture, etc., but please return them to their original location.  The Chapel pews are part of the historic nature of the Chapel and must be moved very carefully. Do not move furniture from building to building.
  7. Please follow the Cabin and Meeting Space Cleaning Instructions before you leave.
  8. Please put trash in the trash cans.  Help keep our beautiful forest clean.
  9. Please leave the flowers and animals alone.
  10. Please stay off the ropes course elements unless you are with an authorized group.
  11. The Chapel is an historic building.  Please stay off the walls and roof.
  12. Please stay off the steep, soft walls of the canyon dunes.
  13. Do not smoke anywhere on the La Foret grounds.  Smoking is permitted only on the verandas of the Dining Hall, Ponderosa Lodge and Inglis Hall.
  14. Moderate use of alcoholic beverages is permitted.  La Foret reserves the right to monitor and regulate use if necessary. Guests must be 21 or older to consume alcoholic beverages.
  15. The first person on site must be the contact person and must check in at the office for a brief orientation. Meeting space and cabins will be locked.
  16. Children must be under direct supervision of a parent or guardian at all times.
  17. Please do not throw anything into toilets; sanitary napkins, tampons, and paper towels in particular choke our sewage system.
  18. La Foret observes a quiet time from 10PM to 6AM each day out of respect to our neighbors and other visiting groups. This means that outside activities with noise that carries beyond the immediate activity area must stop by 10PM. In addition, noise that carries beyond the building where the activity takes place must stop be 10PM.
