Camp Turk Safety Regulations & Policies
While the ultimate goal of Camp Turk is to provide a fun-filled, safe environment for all of our campers, it’s important that we make you aware of both our state safety regulations and policies. These are developed with the health and safety of our campers in mind, and must be reviewed prior to your child coming to Camp Turk.
