Plateau Information
Safety at Camp
Pocono Plateau keeps safety as a priority. Every three years, the American
Camping Association evaluates the Plateau for safety in all areas of the
camping program. The ropes courses are inspected every year by an Association
for Challenge Course Technology certified company. Each ropes facilitator
is trained by our resident Adventure Program Coordinator and ranked according
to their abilities and experience.
All of our employees (year-round, summer staff, summer volunteers) have
background checks and references before they are accepted. At least one
person from each area is trained in CPR and first aid. The lifeguard staff
is certified in lifeguarding, professional CPR, first aid, and underwater
search and rescue. During summer camp 2 registered nurses are on duty at
all times with one infirmary on the Main Site and one on the Adventure Site.
Pocono Plateau is also a member of Christian Camping International / USA. CCI is a resource to help us become an even better facility.
