- Expectations & group life: On our end we'll do everything we can to provide a safe and fun month. Here's what we will expect from you...
First, a willingness to pitch in when needed. This is helpful, for example, when it is getting dark and dinnerhasn’t been cooked yet. The more energy each of you contributes, themore time all of you will have to relax and enjoy your adventures...
Second, to help all of you feel comfortable and included, please remember to remain inclusive of everyone in the group and not pair off...
Finally... We will ask that you all show respect toward each otherand any other group of people with which you interact whileparticipating in your adventures. You represent Hidden Valley whileyou’re on these trips and you represent yourself. Thanks in advancefor helping to make this summer's adventures meaningful for all.
