Terms & Conditions
Child(ren)/Parent Agreement
It is important that all campers and parents have full understanding of, and be in agreement with the overall Wilbraham & Monson Academy Summer Programs philosophy, ideals and goals.
I understand Wilbraham & Monson Academy Summer Programs program is an active and outdoor experience that is positive and constructive in nature. The program requires full and complete participation from all campers.
I understand that there are numerous risks associated with participation in any program activities, including but not limited to activities such as swimming, hiking, athletics and transportation to and from program activities. A complete listing of inherent and other risks is not possible and there may be some risks that cannot be anticipated. Risks that contribute to the unique character and desirability of the activities involved pose the possibility of severe injury, illness or death. I further understand that some activities involved will take place in an outdoor environment where unalterable weather conditions may pose risks beyond the control of Wilbraham & Monson Academy Summer Programs.
I understand Wilbraham & Monson Academy Summer Programs reserves the right to determine whether or not a camper is able to meet the physical and emotional rigors of summer programs life. The parent or guardian signing below understands that Wilbraham & Monson Academy Summer Programs relies upon the information contained in this application form, medical information and other information provided on behalf of the child. The parent or guardian below assumes all risk of loss arising from information that may not be accurate or complete and agrees to indemnify Wilbraham & Monson Academy Summer Programs, its officers, directors, successors and assigns against all claims for loss, damage or injuries sustained to the child and relating to such incomplete or inaccurate information.
Further, it is understood by parents and campers and is agreed that:
1. There shall be no smoking or use of smokeless or other tobacco products by campers at any time.
2. There shall be no drinking of alcoholic beverages by campers on the camp property or during any summer program away from the property.
3. There shall be no use of or involvement in marijuana, narcotics or controlled substances or accompanying drug equipment.
4. Weapons and firearms are not permitted.
5. Campers and their parents will read all materials sent and complete all forms in a timely manner required for participation at the Wilbraham & Monson Academy Summer Programs.
6. Camper enrollment is for the entire session term. Early departures are disruptive to the community and unit groups and not in keeping with our overall goals for the experience.
7. In the event of misconduct or other circumstances, Wilbraham & Monson Academy Summer Programs reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to expel a participant before the completion of the session in which the participant is enrolled.
Unless otherwise stated, my signature permits WMA to use photographs or video pictures of my child taken in the course of the program for publicity of the summer programs at Wilbraham & Monson Academy. I also allow WMA to share information via wma.us and social media for summer program purposes. In the event the local media covers a story for WMA's Summer Programs, I allow my child to participate knowing this could result in on-air and online distribution.
My child may use, under the supervision of camp staff, hazardous equipment involved in regular activities. My child may participate in any trip or activity sponsored and supervised by Wilbraham & Monson Academy Summer Programs on or off the campus, and may travel when deemed necessary by the program via public carrier or vehicles operated by Wilbraham & Monson Academy Summer Programs. I give permission for my child to participate in all camp activities including those described on this form. I acknowledge and assume the risks involved in these activities and for any damage, illness, injury or death resulting from such risks for myself and my child. There are no physical, emotional, mental problems or limitations associated with my child’s participation in activities, except as disclosed by me in writing to Wilbraham & Monson Academy Summer Programs.
In the event I cannot be reached in an emergency, I hereby give permission to the physician selected by the Wilbraham & Monson Academy Summer Programs director to hospitalize, secure proper treatment for, and order injection, anesthesia, or surgery for my child named above.
I have read, discussed with my child(ren) and understand and agree to the terms on both sides of the application including the above Child(ren)/Parent Agreement.
