Girl Scouts Prepared for
Weather Emergencies
In Girl Scouting, safety
is always first-especially at camp. As part of orientation upon arriving at camp, all campers are given instruction
in what to do in the case of an emergency at camp.
The camp director monitors weather
alerts, an all unit leaders carry portable walkie-talkies, which allow constant contact for emergencies. In severe
inclement weather, all campers and staff go to designated areas for shelter. At Camp Cardinal, campers are sheltered
in the bath house and the pool house buildings. Camp Judy Layne has an underground area beneath the Dinning Hall where
all campers can be sheltered in the event of sever weather.
Kentucky's Wilderness
Road Council has a well-supervised program and staff. The first thing girls learn before doing any activity
is the safety procedures involved. All staff are certified in First Aid and CPR.
Camp
site managers live at Camp Judy Layne and Camp Cardinal year-round. The Council works closely with local law enforcement
agencies as well as fire departments and the U.S Forest Service to assure campers' safety.
In an emergency, contact: Jan "Tonto" Davis, camp director, at either Camp Cardinal, June 8 to 27, 2008, 606-286-2163
or Camp Judy Layne, July 3 to August 3, 2008, 606-768-2629.
Our Goals
To provide a safely structured environment
for girls to follow their dreams and expand their world, to try new adventures, perfect their skills, and develop a confidence
in themselves that will carry over into the rest of their lives.
