Electronics Restrictions

Due to privacy concerns and to create a quality experience free from the distractions of electronics, transmittable devices such as cell phones or tablets with data plans are strictly prohibited. Non-transmittable devices such as iPods, mp3 players or tablets without data plans, are permitted while traveling but are not permitted once at camp. Upon arrival, all electronic devices are collected, labeled and secured. At the end of the camp session, all devices are returned. 

Luggage Tags

We request that luggage be restricted to two (2) pieces, a suitcase and backpack. Campers may bring a small carry on such as a backpack or satchel on the bus. In most cabins, suitcases are stored under bunks and cannot exceed 15 ½” in height. Please be sure to clearly mark and tag each piece of luggage with your camper's name. Upon arrival, CG Victory Staff will unload and assist campers with their luggage.

What time do I drop off my camper if they are not taking the bus?

Drop off your camper at Camp Buckner starting at 3pm and no later than 3:30pm. If for some reason your camper must arrive late, please contact info@cgvictory.org to make the necessary arrangements. As camp approaches, specific drop off instructions will be sent directly to our enrolled camper families.

What time do I pick up my camper if they are not taking the bus?

CG Victory will send out direct information regarding our updated Closing Day Ceremonies & Pick up procedures.

What do I need to know about Bus Transportation?

CG Victory will send a bus interest form to all enrolled families to gauge if bus travel is in demand. We will need to meet the minimum participation requirements to rent a bus and will make a decision once we hear from our camper families.

Will there be medical staff at camp?

Yes, a Registered Nurse will be on camp property and available 24/7. 

Are there AED devices available and on property?

Yes, there are two AED devices on the property. They are fully functioning and tested regularly, and CG Victory staff is trained on how to use them. 

What if my camper has medication?

All pills/capsules (prescription and non-prescription) must be checked in with our camp nurse upon arrival on Opening Day. The medication taken on a routine basis will be individually packaged and sorted according to day and time of administration. If prescription medication is not in pill/capsule form (liquids, eye drops, topical, etc.) they will be dispensed as indicated. All medication is supervised by the camp nurse.

How is camper medication handled?

We have a medication administration form that will be sent to each family. Each person bringing medication to camp must fill it out prior to arrival. Upon arrival it must be turned in to the nurse. We will send you the Medical Administration form with instructions prior to camp starting. These forms must be as accurate as possible so as not to slow down the process.

What if my camper has an allergy?

Campers that have any type of allergy, whether food, drug, environmental or other, must notify CG Victory via the Health section of their registration in CampSite or they must notify CG Victory staff via info@cgvictory.org to be added to their account. Please be sure to indicate the allergen, the reaction and the treatment if exposure occurs. Food allergies must be discussed in advance of the session so we can coordinate alternatives with the camp facilities team. Supplemental foods are available upon request. 

What if my camper has a physical or medical restriction?

All activity, medical and dietary restrictions are reviewed once submitted during registration. Campers with chronic medical conditions including, but not necessarily limited to, diabetes, cystic fibrosis, heart conditions, etc. are welcome at CG Victory Legends as long as the camper can thrive within the Essential Functions defined. Each condition is considered on a case by case basis and final acceptance is at the sole discretion of the camp director in consultation with its medical team.

What does a day at camp include? 

Each day at Legends overnight camp will be jam-packed with recreational and team activities, theme days, camp-wide game nights and socials, along with Christ centered teaching and discussion-based groups. See our camp schedule more for details. 

What does my camper bring to camp?

Packing list can be found above.

Can I contact my child while they’re at camp? How? 

Telephone calls from parents or friends to campers should be limited to an emergency basis. Please feel free to call the Camp Director if you need to discuss something relating to your child. Campers are not allowed to use the telephone during their stay at CG Victory except for emergencies. 

What is your behavior, supervision and bullying policy?

CG Victory aims to address camper behavior that negatively affects the experience of others in a decisive and timely fashion. CG Victory has a zero tolerance policy for bullying and should a camper be seen bullying another camper for any reason it will warrant a meeting with our Executive Director and the parent will be notified immediately to make a swift decision on whether the camper should remain at camp for the remainder of the week. Our staff’s goal is to prevent negative behavior before it happens by continually monitoring camper behavior. Our cabin counselors are the first line of "defense," but all staff members are trained to work together to attempt to eliminate misbehavior of any kind. Our entire Summer Staff is trained to recognize, prevent and resolve camper behavior issues, including bullying. 

How are cabins arranged?

Each main cabin houses 2 individual rooms, each hosting 15-20 bunks. The rooms are connected by a main corridor. Each large cabin will consist of the same gender and similarly aged campers. Cabin requests can be made during the enrollment process, but will only be honored if the campers are of similar age and the same gender.
