2015 General Information
ADMISSION
Boys 7-14
First Session - Sunday, June 7 – Friday, June 19

Third Session - Sunday, July 5 – Friday, July 17
Fourth Session - Sunday, July 19 – Friday, July 31
Camp Laney accepts boys of good character of any race, creed, ethnic, or national origin. For a camper to participate in all aspects
of the Camp Laney program, he should: (1) Enthusiastically want to go to overnight camp, rather than feeling persuaded; (2) Independently meet his personal needs, such as changing and bathing; (3) Effectively interact in group situations (games, teams, cabin
living); and (4) Easily understand and willingly follow safety instructions. The director must approve all applications.
A registration fee of $500 is required. Checks should be made payable to Camp Laney, Inc. Camp Laney also accepts American
Express/Discover/Visa/MasterCard payments. The registration fee is deducted from the total camp fee. An additional $500
payment must be made by February 1, 2015. The balance of the fee is to be paid by May 1, 2015. No deduction is allowed for late
arrival, withdrawal (including for homesickness), or dismissal. If cancellation is made before June 1, all fees are returned except a
$50 processing fee. After June 1, half of the camp fee will be returned. However, the forfeited portion of the tuition can be applied
to the following season if the camper attends.
Families sending more than one camper to Camp Laney will receive a 10% discount for each camper.
Possession of firearms, the use of alcohol, non-prescription drugs, or tobacco in any form is not permitted at Camp Laney. Violation of this policy will result in dismissal from the camp. The director reserves the right to dismiss any boy, or refuse admission
to any applicant whose presence, in his opinion, would be detrimental to the best interest of Camp Laney.
CAMP FEE
The camp fee is all inclusive and covers daily activities, laundry once per two-week session, camp photo, rappelling (boys finishing 6th grade), rock climbing (boys finishing 7th and 8th grade), $25 Laney Store credit, daily canteen costs, and all out of camp
trips. Out of camp trips are for two-week campers and are: Campers finishing 1st, 2nd, or 3rd grade – Tennessee Aquarium Tour/
Imax, Rock City; Campers finishing 4th or 5th grade – Nantahala River rafting trip; Campers who are 12 years old and up – Ocoee
River rafting trip; Campers finishing 8th grade have the choice of the Ocoee River trip or a “Duckie” trip on the Nantahala River.
SPENDING MONEY
Part of the camp fee is a $25.00 Laney Store Credit. The credit is used at the camp store. The store carries stamps, stationery, toothpaste,
soap, shampoo, Frisbees, Laney paracord bracelets, batteries, etc. Camp Laney clothing is sold only on opening and closing day.
**No additional spending money is required on opening day.
CABIN MATE REQUESTS
We try to honor cabin mate requests if grade level and age allow, and if the parents of both campers request it. It is good for a
camper to be in a cabin with one or two friends, but we want to avoid cabins made up of boys all from one town. This does not
allow the boys to branch out and make new friends. Cabin mate requests should be made in writing on the application. All cabin
mate requests must be received by June 1.
NO PACKAGE POLICY
Camp Laney has a no package policy. Please send letters only in a #10 envelope or smaller. No food items will be delivered.
This also applies to items dropped off at the mail room on opening day. Please notify friends and family of this policy. Packages,
oversized envelopes, padded envelopes will be returned to sender and/or given back at the end of camp. An exception to the
policy is made for birthdays celebrated at camp. If your son has forgotten an essential item and you are sending it, please notify
us at [email protected].
VISITING
We prefer that parents and friends see the camp and meet the staff on opening and closing day of each session. Visiting while camp
is in session can be disruptive, and in some cases, may cause the camper to have to “readjust” to being separated from home and
family.
TELEPHONE & FAX
Camp Laney’s telephone number is 256-634-4066. Fax is 256-634-4098. We discourage phone calls to campers. If you must talk
with your son, call through the camp director at 256-634-4066. Campers are not allowed to use the telephone unassisted. However, in rare
instances (such as illness, family emergency, or persistent homesickness), the camp director may bring campers to the phone. Campers are NOT
allowed to bring cell phones to camp.
Please limit your calls concerning transportation and administrative matters to the hours of 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. CDT.
