ATTENTION PASTORS

Most participating churches attending Camp Masterson maintain insurance for youth outings on a year round basis.  It was decided that each group coming to camp would be responsible for their own accident liability insurance.  REPEAT:  You must provide insurance coverage for your group prior to camp.  You can mail a copy showing current coverage to Bro. Mike when you mail the Camper Applications as soon as possible to help with ordering camp supplies.
