Text[0]=["Can I bunk with my friend?","Sure! Just be sure you both request each other on the registration form. We typically don’t put more than two friends together in a cabin because we want to encourage campers to meet new people."]
Text[1]=["What if I come without a friend?","Talk about a great opportunity to make new friends! And you’re not alone – lots of campers come on their own. They’ll tell you that Camp Cherith is a super welcoming place where friendships happen quickly and easily. Don’t be surprised if you’re making friends before you get your sleeping bag unrolled!"]
Text[2]=["What do campers do all day?","Lots of fun things! Click here to see the girls’ schedule or here to see the boys’ schedule."]
Text[3]=["Where do all the activities take place?","Most take place at outdoor locations throughout the camp – the waterfront, horse corral and trails, archery range, campfire circles…we even have an open-air chapel by the lake. Most indoor events are held in the dining hall, where our center stage is located. Click here to see the camp map."]
Text[4]=["Why are there weekly themes?","Weekly themes make camp even more fun! If the theme is “Shipwrecked,” expect to be hitting the deck with lots of seafaring activities. If it’s “Back to the ’70s” you’re sure to have a really groovy week filled with peace, love, and bellbottoms! You get the idea…"]
Text[5]=["What if it rains?","Camp life doesn’t go on hold just because things get a little wet! Sure, we prefer sunshine, but rain does come our way now and then and we’re always prepared for it with fun alternative activities. It’s a good idea to bring a rain poncho – just in case."]
Text[6]=["What’s the food like?","Meals are served family style, which means everyone sits down and serving dishes are passed around the table – you don’t stand in line, like in a school cafeteria. Each meal offers variety and no two meals are the same, so even picky eaters are sure to find something they like. Cherith has a reputation for serving really good homemade meals."]
Text[7]=["Will I get into the skill-building classes I want?","We really try to give each camper their favorite choices, but it isn’t always possible. That’s why we ask you to select your top seven choices instead of just two. Campers are assigned to classes in the order their registration is received, so the earlier you register the better chance you have of getting the classes you want most."]
Text[8]=["My little sister/brother is coming – will we see each other?","Yes, but whether you spend time together is up to you. Campers are grouped in cabins by age, so you won’t be bunkmates (unless you’re in the same age group and request it). Most activities are with campers in your age division, but you’re welcome to spend free time with your sibling. You’re also likely to cross paths during the day, especially at meals or during all-camp activities."]
Text[9]=["What if I get homesick?","“Some campers worry about being homesick,” says Maran, an 11-year-old Cherith camper, “but you’re so busy at camp that you just forget all about it because you’re having such a great time. And at night you don’t worry because you’re so tired from your busy day that you fall right asleep!”"]
Text[10]=["How much money should I bring?","That depends on what you plan to buy at the Tuck Shop camp store. Most snacks are a dollar or less, but the shop also has books, CDs, small toys and souvenirs, and Cherith t-shirts, sweatshirts, and blankets. Prices range from 25 cents to $25."]
Text[11]=["What if I lose my spending money?","You won’t because campers don’t carry cash. When you get to camp you turn in your money and it’s put in a Tuck Shop account for you. Any money left in your account at the end of the week is returned to you in cash. Note: If you’re riding the camp bus, be sure to keep enough money in your account to buy lunch on the way home."]
Text[12]=["Can I swim anywhere I want at the beach?","Each camper takes a swimming test that determines in which areas of the waterfront they are permitted to swim. The test can be retaken at any time throughout the week. We use a buddy system for safety, which means you’ll have a friend with you no matter where you’re swimming."]
Text[13]=["Can I email my child at camp?","Yes, you may send your child e-mail for a small fee through Parent Communicator. To register for email you'll need an access code that can be found in the important information document above. E-mail is delivered once a day in the form of printed copies; campers do not have e-mail access. Click here to register for email."]
Text[14]=["If I send a letter when will it arrive?","Mail travels to camp rather slowly, so write early – even a day or two before your child leaves for camp. It’s always exciting for campers to receive a cheery letter from home. Please don’t send large packages of treats because food cannot be stored in the cabins."]
Text[15]=["Can I call my child to check in?","Experience has shown that phone calls to or from home often disrupt the flow of camp life and compound homesickness. Therefore, calls are restricted to emergencies only. Be assured that we will not hesitate to call you if necessary."]
Text[16]=["Can I send snacks with my child?","We discourage parents from sending a week’s worth of snacks because food items cannot be stored in the cabins. Any food that’s not immediately consumed must be stored in a plastic bin in the dining hall. Inexpensive snacks are available Monday through Saturday in the Tuck Shop. If your child has special dietary concerns please contact the registrar prior to camp."]
Text[17]=["What if my child gets homesick?","It’s normal for children away from home to experience homesickness, but it usually subsides once they’re acclimated to camp. So if you receive a “homesick” letter, realize that by the time it reaches you your child will probably be having a great time. Our staff is trained to deal with homesick campers in a loving and supportive way. You can also encourage your camper by sending letters and emails inquiring about the exciting things they’re doing. Remind them that they’re not missing anything special at home – you’re just doing regular things."]
Text[18]=["How early do we need to register for camp?","Registration usually begins in January. It depends upon which week you're interested in attending. Some weeks may fill up well in advance while others have opening up until the day camp starts. If you are interested in a specific week, it's a good idea to get your registration in as early as possible."]
Text[19]=["Can parents come to camp?","We welcome parent volunteers – they’re a vital resource at Camp Cherith! It’s important to understand, however, that your role as a staff member will keep you quite busy, so time with your child will be limited. Parents can serve as counselors, but our policy does not permit a parent to be their own child’s counselor. Click here to learn more about volunteer opportunities."]
Text[20]=["Where do campers stay?","Camp Cherith has four clusters of cabins – one for each age division (Pathfinders, Trailblazers, Shikaris, and Explorers). Campers may only be housed within their own age division, so friends or siblings in different divisions cannot share a cabin. Each cabin holds a maximum of eight campers and one counselor. All cabins have electricity."]
Text[21]=["Where do Cherith’s counselors come from?","Many of our counselors are former Cherith campers whose own faith became real to them at Camp Cherith, motivating them to return as adults to cultivate that same passion for Christ in the next generation of campers. Some counselors are parents of campers (though their children are not placed with them). Others are young adults or college students seeking a meaningful summer ministry experience. Each counselor is under the direct leadership of a divisional director, who is actively involved in every aspect of camp life. All of Camp Cherith’s paid and volunteer staff members must go through an application and screening process that includes reference checks and criminal background checks. They also sign the camp’s Statement of Faith. Through the years, God has faithfully provided our campers with counselors who are great mentors and role models for the Christian life."]
Text[22]=["Can my child attend for more than one week?","Both boys and girls can go home after camp and return for a later week or the girls can simply stay on for a second consecutive week. For a $25 stay-over fee we’ll provide her with supervision, lodging, meals, and laundry facilities from the time one camp session ends Saturday morning until the next one begins Sunday afternoon. Since each week features a different theme, no two weeks at Cherith are ever the same."]
Text[23]=["Are scholarships available to families in financial hardship?","We don’t want to turn any camper away from Camp Cherith for financial reasons, so we’re committed to making scholarships available to families who are experiencing financial hardship. Contact our registrar for a scholarship application. A special thanks to those who support our scholarship fund by adding a donation on their child’s camp registration form."]
