Healthy selections are offered in an air-conditioned dining hall which includes a fully stocked salad bar as well as a hot bar, a sandwich bar and many vegetarian choices. Campers may return to the serving line as often as they wish. For the convenience of the students, a snack bar will be open periodically.
The success of your child's 'Camp Destiny' experience is directly related to the quality of our staff. The AWP Staff are instrumental to our close-knit family atmosphere. Many staff members have grown up with AWP, and most of our staff members return for many years.
Counselors are chosen based on their love of children, leadership ability and expertise in the performing arts. Each counselor is carefully screened and participates in an intense counselor training program. They will work the closest with your child, providing them with an artistic adventure they will talk about for years to come! In fact, most of our counselors were campers with AWP (once upon a time!) There will be 1 or 2 counselors for approximately 7 to 10 students.
House Parents are in charge of your child's living quarters. They play a major role in your childs care. They become their mom/dad for the week and make them feel right at home! If a child is feeling homesick or just needs some advice, they are there to help make things better. There will be 1 house parent for approximately 25 students and counselors.
Medical Staff members have become some of the most beloved members of our AWP family! Physicians and/or RNs make up this 'Care Package' that is ready to fix your boo-boos or just plain 'cheer you up' anytime of the day. They deliver all medications and monitor any health concerns. We love them dearly and you will too! A paramedic team from the Alpharetta Fire Dept. will be housed on campus to handle any unexpected emergency, and, there is a full service hospital adjacent to the Brenau campus.
Administrative Staff works around the clock to make sure that your child's needs are met. They know that each child is special and will help make all of your requests a reality. You will recognize them with their zany hats and colorful decor, and know that they are here to make your Destiny experience a fantabulous adventure!
Campus Security monitors all locations on foot, bicycle and car and have taken a special interest in our camp because of our splendiferous kids! Your childs safety always comes first!
Camp is a place where young people can be free to have a good time in an unregimented atmosphere and enjoy many creative activities with others. We do not expect any discipline problems. However, in the rare event that a camper might create a situation which disrupts the camp program or could be harmful to himself or the other students, parents will be notified to pick up that student immediately (In which case, the camp fee would be non-refundable).
SMOKING, TOBACCO, ALCOHOL, PROFANITY, STEALING, THREATS, ACTS OF VIOLENCE, WEAPONS, SEXUAL CONTACT, AND ILLEGAL DRUG USE ARE STRICTLY FORBIDDEN AND WOULD WARRANT IMMEDIATE DISMISSAL FROM CAMP.
A student's person and/or personal belongings (purse, suitcase, book bag, etc,) may be searched whenever the AWP directors have reason to believe that the student is in possession of illegal or unauthorized materials. If an AWP staff member has reason to believe that a particular student has an item imminently dangerous to the student or others, a more intrusive search of a students belongings or room may be conducted without the students consent. Parents are responsible for any damages, or defacing of property incurred by students while at camp and will be billed for any damages, after inspection at the end of camp.
Residential Campers staying for consecutive weeks have the option of spending the weekend at home or on campus at an additional charge of $90.We strongly suggest that campers go home if possible, so they will be completely rested for their 2nd exciting session. They would be expected to return on registration day to check-in before 3:30PM.
