Camp is a very special place for little girls. All of us work together to help it stay that way. Besides being courteous and considerate in the usual ways there is an additional point to keep in mind. Consider us to be the same as ordinary real little girls. Before you say or do something consider if it would be appropriate in a group of ordinary little girls.

When you're at Camp you will notice several girls taking pictures of the others. Making photographs at a special occasion like Camp is a very natural thing for friends to do. This isn't quite the open situation it appears to be at first. Since the very first Camp, the girls have established a policy regarding photographs. By our history and close friendship we know we can trust each other to abide by the policy. The rule is: If you are attending Camp, you may take photographs with the understanding that they may not be published anywhere in any form. The pictures you take at Camp are for your exclusive viewing and perhaps sharing a copy with the girls that appear in a picture. Agreeing to this rule in person, at Camp with the other girls there is required before you take pictures. If you take pictures before you ask permission and agree to the rule you can expect to be questioned about what you're up to. So far everyone at Camp has cooperated in this way; please don't be the first not to. If you are at Camp and you find yourself being photographed without permission please bring it to the attention the lodge manager. The nature of our group is such that we do not consider ourselves to be on display for the public.

One of the best parts of Camp is Ms Farida's Ballet class. If you plan to attend, there is something you should know. Ms. Farida works very hard to prepare for our classes she knows some of us want very much to learn how to do Ballet. She knows we are children and doesn't expect we will become professional dancers, but she does expect we will try our best. Part of trying our best is to come to class prepared and not disrupt the class by talking while she's teaching us.

If there is one or more sessions of school planed at Camp there may be some homework to bring. The assignment(s) are brief, but important to making the class real. Please bring your homework with you if you plan to attend school.

Please take care of your toys. Went you're done with a toy please pick it up. Don't leave it on a table where it's in the way of others or on the floor where someone may step on it.

If someone asks you to sign their memory book please write something about camp and sign your name. You are not expected to give any information about your big Brother or Daddy. You aren't expected to give information about yourself you don't feel comfortable giving out.

Be courteous; always remember to say please and thank you. Curtsies are optional if you like to curtsy.

When it's your first time at Camp, you and your Daddy or big Brother are probably a little nervous. Even though you'll look like you, it's quite usual for the Daddy or big Brother to do most of the talking at the first Camp. As you gain confidence you will talk more and your Daddy will talk less. The ones who have been to Camp before understand. You should please understand them too, as they tend to talk mostly as their girl selves and their Daddies take a nap.
