We know that Middle Schoolers are fun, independent and still
figuring out who they are. Trial and error is a huge part of their lives.
That is why we at UDP&R have created an "ACCEPTABLE
BEHAVIOR CONTRACT" that each X-Zone participant, along
with a parent/guardian, must sign. This contract needs to be on
file at UDP&R prior to the X-Zoner’s attendance at camp. The
terms of this contract must be exhibited at all times at X-Zone
as well as on Super Summer Adventure trips (the two are affiliated).
If an X-Zoner is into the “error” stage, he or she will be allowed
"3 strikes" against the Acceptable Behavior Contract. Dismissal
from X-Zone as well as Super Summer Adventures with no
refund of fees paid will result if all chances are used. Please
keep this policy in mind when registering your child.
NOTE: Should a serious violation occur, UDP&R reserves
the right to dismiss the participant immediately with no
refund of fees paid.
