Code of Conduct

Nashville Acoustic Camps Code of Conduct

Nothing is more important to us than the well-being of our campers. We are vigilant about emotional safety as well as physical safety and creating a place where campers feel safe, supported in reaching their goals and accomplishing challenges, and where everyone can have fun. The Nashville Acoustic Camp requires all campers to read and agree to the following Camp Code of Conduct.

Please read the following rules very carefully. Unless otherwise stated, breaking any rule listed below may, at the discretion of the Nashville Acoustic Camp staff, result in immediate dismissal from camp with no refund of fees, and expulsion from any future Nashville Acoustic Camp event:

1. All participants are expected to treat their peers, instructors, and staff with respect and courtesy at all times. This includes refraining from using derogatory or insulting language, bullying or harassment, or any other behavior that is offensive or disruptive. Behaviors that constitute harassment and bullying include, but are not limited to: comments that are derogatory with respect to race, religion, gender, sexual orientation, color, body image, or disability; sexually suggestive, humiliating, or demeaning
comments; and threats to stalk, haze, or physically injure another person.

2. Participants are strictly prohibited from consuming illegal drugs while participating in the camp. Any participant found to be in violation of this rule, or found to be intoxicated from either alcohol or drugs, will be immediately dismissed from the camp without a refund. Camp staff have the authority to enforce this rule and determine whether a participant is in violation or is intoxicated.

3. Participants are strictly prohibited from possessing or using firearms while participating in the camp. Any participant found to be in possession of a firearm, or found to be using a firearm, will be immediately dismissed from the camp without a refund and the appropriate law enforcement authorities will be called upon. Camp staff have the authority to enforce this rule and determine whether a participant is in violation.

4. All participants are responsible for their personal belongings and equipment and will not hold Nashville Acoustic Camps responsible for their loss or damage due to the participant’s negligence or neglect.

5. All participants are responsible for the care and upkeep of camp property. Damage to any camp property will result in disciplinary action, which could include dismissal from the camp and/or financial responsibility for damages caused. Vandalism and theft will result in immediate dismissal from the camp. Please treat the buildings, property, equipment and furniture with care. If vandalism or theft occurs, those involved will be financially responsible for all expenses necessary for repair, and may be subject to referral to the appropriate law enforcement agency.

6. All participants are expected to present themselves in a professional manner at all times. This includes appropriate dress for rehearsals, classes, and performances, as well as appropriate behavior during rehearsals, classes, and performances.

7. All Participants should refrain from posting any photographs, videos, or information about their experiences at music camp on social media without permission of the camp management.

8. All participants are expected to comply with all safety measures set out by the camp management. This include but not limited to, wearing masks and following social distancing guidelines if required by the camp management. Any camper who violates rules and regulations makes themself liable for dismissal. The breaking of any civil law or city ordinance is grounds for automatic dismissal from the Nashville Acoustic Camp. Should you be dismissed for any of these reasons, you will be responsible for your immediate transportation home. Participants dismissed from camp at any time will not be
reimbursed any funds paid.

I have read the Code of Conduct stated above. I agree to abide by these rules and understand that if I break these rules and/or display inappropriate behavior, the result will be disciplinary action and/or dismissal from camp at the sole discretion of the Nashville Acoustic Camp.
