Camp UKANDU and the American Camp Association
Camp UKANDU is an American Camp Association (ACA) - Accredited Camp. What does that mean for
your child?
American Camp Association (ACA) accreditation means that Camp UKANDU submitted to a thorough
(over 300 standards) review of its operation by the ACA — from staff qualifications and training to
emergency management — and complied with the highest standards in the industry.
As parents, you expect your child to attend accredited schools. Your child also deserves a camp
experience that is reviewed and accredited by an expert, independent organization.
Camp UKANDU and ACA have formed a partnership that promotes summers of growth and fun in an
environment committed to safety. By attaining ACA accreditation, Camp UKANDU has demonstrated its
commitment to quality camp programming.
ACA is the only independent accrediting organization reviewing camp operations in the country. Its
nationally recognized standards program focuses primarily on the program quality, health and safety
aspects of a camp's operation. ACA collaborates with experts from The American Academy of Pediatrics,
the American Red Cross, and other youth service agencies to assure that current practices at the camp
reflect the most up-to-date, research-based standards in camp operation. For more parent-focused
information about accreditation, visit ACA's www.CampParents.org.

CAMP UKANDU RESIDENTIAL CAMPING PROGRAM
MISSION STATEMENT
The mission of Camp UKANDU is to bring joy and hope to children living with cancer, their siblings and their
families through “outrageously fun” camping experiences.
PHILOSOPHY
The purpose of Camp UKANDU is to offer a planned week of camping activities designed for children age 8 through
18 (or senior year of high school) living with cancer (patients and siblings). It provides opportunities for outdoor
play, socialization with other children in similar circumstances, and the explorations and use of individual talents
and strengths- all with careful supervision by medical specialists and trained adult volunteers. There are no set
“standards of achievement”; each child is accepted as a unique individual and is encouraged to participate at a
level comfortable to them. Helping each child feel safe and secure is a top priority. Camp UKANDU recognizes the
“long-term” survivor and helps children prepare to move into other camping experiences.
RESIDENTIAL PROGRAM GOALS, OUTCOME OBJECTIVES AND IMPLEMENTATION AT CAMP:
Goal 1: To provide campers with a safe, well-staffed camping environment.
Outcome Objectives:
100% of the time, all campers will be supervised in a 5:1 camper to staff ratio.
Train all staff.
Goal 2: To provide medical expertise and close monitoring required by children with cancer and not offered at
ordinary summer camps.
Outcome Objectives:
100% of the campers will be monitored by at least two oncology nurses and one pediatric oncology
physician.
Goal 3: To welcome any child well enough to enjoy the experience and who can safely attend camp.
Outcome Objectives:
100% of all participants are identified by their doctors to be well enough to attend camp.
Goal 4: To give all children the opportunity to attend camp without financial cost to their families.
Outcome Objectives:
100% of all participants may attend any Camp UKANDU program at no cost.
Goal 5: To help give parents whose children attend camp assurance by running a safe, secure program, and
providing them with all necessary information and support.
Outcome Objectives:
100% of families receive Camp UKANDU informational packets at least 2 weeks prior to Camp
UKANDU program.
100% of families will have received written documentations regarding camp accreditation,
association and information on medical care and programs.

2015 Camp UKANDU Camper Behavior Expectations
Child with Cancer Registration Packet








We expect that all campers come to Camp UKANDU because they want to participate in a camp
experience.
We expect that all campers are willing to participate in group activities and will cooperate with
other children and adults.
We expect that all campers will behave in such a manner that they will not disrupt nor interfere
with other children's enjoyment.
We expect that all campers will use appropriate language.
We expect that all campers will not act in such a way to threaten or cause injury to themselves
or others.
We expect all campers to help ensure the safety of themselves and others by leaving
knives/firearms/weapons of any kind at home.
We expect that all campers will have a smoke, alcohol and drug free experience at camp.
We expect that all campers will not engage in sexual behavior while at camp.
STEPS IN PROBLEM SOLVING
The camper’s individual counselors will first deal with problems. If the problem continues, the
counselors will consult with the Camp Director, the Rainbow Connection support staff, or other mental
health professionals. The camper will be involved and made aware of the concern, and a plan will be
developed to help the camper meet Camp UKANDU's behavior expectations. If the problem continues,
the parents/guardians will be contacted asking for their suggestions, and advising them of the concern.
Finally, if the camper continues to behave in a disruptive manner, or is apparently so unhappy that
he/she does not wish to stay at camp, the parents/guardians will be asked to take the camper home as
soon as possible.
If you (the parents/guardians) anticipate that your child may have behavioral issues at camp, please
inform the Camp Director, so a plan can be put into place before camp. (Call Hillary Orr at
503.276.2178.)
In the rare event of a severe behavior issue or problem, you will be contacted immediately and required
to remove your child from camp immediately.
I understand both the behavior expectations and the procedures of problem solving for my child/myself
at camp.

significant element of risk involved in any adventure, sport or activity associated with the outdoors. If you or your dependent
children have a health condition, chronic illness or injury that might be aggravated by doing these activities you should not
participate in these activities without first consulting a physician. Participation in camp activities is voluntary and participants are
able to choose their level of involvement in all activities. In agreeing to participate you assume all liability for any physical injuries
