VIRTUAL VIDEO ETIQUETTE:

  • Be present at camp. Don’t be multitasking or doing anything else while you’re in camp.

  • Always use your full name on your screen.

  • Appropriate clothing must be worn at all times.

  • Make sure your video is well lit.

  • Please keep your camera on at all times.

  • Do not participate while driving.

  • Try to minimize background noises.

  • Mute when in large group.

  • Use headphones for better audio quality.

  • Be mindful of what is in your background.

  • Do not share your screen.

  • Side chatting will not be allowed.

  • Use “raise hand” feature when applicable.

  • Confidentiality. “What’s said here stays here. What’s learned here leaves here.”

CREATING CAMP SPACE AT HOME:

  • Designate a place where you will “do Camp” every Sunday and Wednesday.

    • This might be a table or desk in a place in your room or a place in your house where you will be undisturbed

    • We recommend that this place not be on your bed; to separate your sleep space from your camp space.

  • Make sure your area is clear of any distractions or other work that could take you away from camp (i.e. books, game devices, homework, etc.)

  • Check your lighting. 

    • We want to be able to see your beautiful faces.​

    • If your space is not well lit, move a lamp to your surrounding space or table.

  • Keep water by you so you don’t have to leave and miss out on important info or fun!

  • Keep a “prayer totem” by your side.

    • This can be a rock, crystal, leaf, etc. This can be something you draw spiritual energy from, especially when you start to lose focus. You can also use this totem as a visual symbol of God, and feel that He is right beside you during Camp.

  • Add camp memorabilia to your space for aesthetic flair and to bring back wonderfuL memories

WHAT TO CHECK FOR AHEAD OF TIME:

  • Laptop/desktop computer is preferred, but you may use your phone or tablet for different activities as instructed by your counselors.

  • Internet is working.

  • Microphone and speakers are working.

  • You have access to a power source (so your device doesn’t die).

  • You won’t be distrubed during the times of Camp.
