3. WEMO Covenant
The WEMO Community Covenant is based on Romans 12:10, with an emphasis on respect. We take it very seriously as it is our standard for behavior and our guide to handling any situations that might arise.
Participating in an event is a privilege. Participants and adult volunteers are encouraged to enter fully and cooperatively into the community life.
These standards are ideals toward which we strive, are non-negotiable and will be enforced on a zero-tolerance basis.
If these standards are violated, the violator will be
disciplined accordingly up to being sent home
at the expense of the parent.

4. Romans 12:10
"Love one another with brotherly affection.  Outdo one another in showing honor."

8. Your Covenant
I realize that my choosing to break any of these covenant standards or ones stated at the event will result in consequences that potentially consists of my parents being notified, and if significant enough, being sent home at the expense of my parents. I understand the Covenant standards are non-negotiable.
These standards are ideals toward which we strive, are non-negotiable and will be enforced on a zero-tolerance basis.
When asked to change a behavior by an adult we expect you to change it after the first mention. When it takes more than one mention by the same person or multiple people then further action must be taken. Every adult should be listened to. Camp this year
