Welcome to Summer Camp!

Welcome to Summer Camp!
We are excited that you’re going to be a part of Woodward at Copper this summer! Please read this Registration
Packet to learn everything you need to know about summer camp.
GETTING TO WOODWARD AT COPPER
Arrival Day is the first date listed for each session. This is the day campers either fly or drive to camp. For
Snowboard, Ski, Skateboard, BMX, Slopestyle Mt. Bike and Digital Media campers, check-in is between
2:00pm and 4:00pm. Cheer Campers are to check in from 2:00p-3:00pm. We request that all campers check-in
by 3:45pm at the latest. This will ensure campers have enough time to settle into their dorm rooms before dinner,
camp orientation, and skills testing.
Check In
Once at Copper Mountain, all summer campers (both Overnight and Day Campers) will need to check in at The
E.D.G.E., which is our camper housing. Follow the Check-In signs and take Copper Rd. past two stop sign
intersections. After the second intersection you will want to park in the Beeler parking lot on your right before the
roundabout. The E.D.G.E. building will be located across the street, and Summer Camp check in will take place in
the lobby. At check-in, campers will receive their room assignments, meet their counselor and roommate, sign up
for camp activities, deposit cash in their “Camp Bank” or “Camp Store Credit Card Account,” as well as get
their picture taken for their Camper Credential.
Departure Day is the last date listed for each session. This is the day campers either fly home or get picked up at
camp. All camp sessions wrap up after breakfast at 9:00am from The E.D.G.E. lobby. Unless prior arrangements
are made, campers will be permitted to leave only with their own parent(s). Exceptions can be made if parents/legal
guardians provide written permission for their child to leave with someone else (see Transportation Form).
Getting to Camp
All campers MUST fill out the enclosed Transportation Form so we know how you will arrive at Copper
Mountain for camp check-in, as well as depart on check out day.
Flying
 A Woodward at Copper employee in uniform will be stationed at DIA (Denver International Airport) on
Arrival and Departure days. They will be available to meet campers at the arrival/baggage terminal, ensure
that they get on the correct Summit Express shuttle, or check-in at the right airline.
o On Arrival Day, all campers should arrive at DIA between 11:00am and 1:00pm. The Woodward at
Copper employee will only be stationed at DIA from 10:30am to 1:30pm.
o On Departure Day, all departure flights should be scheduled no later than 1:00pm. The Woodward
at Copper employees will only be stationed at DIA from 11:00am to 2:00pm.
 You MUST arrange an AIRPORT SHUTTLE in advance through Summit Express for transportation from
Denver International Airport to Copper Mountain and from Copper Mountain to Denver International
Airport. Please note that Woodward at Copper is not responsible for booking your shuttle.

will be travelling to/ from Woodward at Copper. For more information checkout their website at



We recommend traveling with a passport for an I.D., but this form of ID is not required.
Unaccompanied Minors: Some airlines require passengers that are below a certain age to fly as an
unaccompanied minor. There is usually an extra fee for this because the airline provides a representative
on-board the flight, and allows a representative to accompany the minor to and from the gates during travel.
Please check with your airline when booking the camper’s flights. If you have purchased this service
please note this information on the Transportation Form.
Driving

right lane and drive over the freeway. Once you have taken the overpass take the first right on to Copper Rd.
and head to the E.D.G.E. building.
 Directions from Grand Junction. Hop on I-70 east and take the Copper Mountain exit # 195/Hwy 91.

WHAT NOT TO BRING
NO personal valuables should be brought to camp. This includes jewelry, mp3 players, iPods, cameras, and any
good clothing. In the camp atmosphere, where there are so many folks, campers tend to forget, lose track of or
misplace many things. Remember *Woodward at Copper is not responsible for lost or stolen items*
MEDICAL REQUIREMENTS AND PROCEDURES
Woodward at Copper campers are required to have medical insurance. All campers MUST complete and sign (if
under the age of 18 a parent or legal guardian 18 and older must sign) the enclosed Woodward at Copper
Participant Release, which acknowledges the “consent to treat.” This document must be returned to camp no
later than May 12, 2014. Please refer to the Summer Camp FAQ for details
Woodward at Copper will have Ski Patrol coverage on snow to assess injuries in the Central summer Terrain Park,
as well as Athletic Trainers in the Barn to assess injuries in the training facility. The majority of injuries will be
cared for in the Woodward at Copper training room by the camp Athletic Trainers. In the event of a serious injury
911 will be called and the parent or legal guardian of campers under the age of 18 will be notified immediately. The
nearest Emergency Room is located in Frisco, Colorado, which is about 15 minutes away from camp.
Campers with pre-existing injuries or prescription medication should include this information, and any special
instructions on the enclosed Camper Information and Housing Form. Prescription medication must be in its
original container with the name of medication, dosage, frequency, condition being treated, physician’s signature,
and DEA number. This information must be filled out and returned no later than May 12, 2014.
REFUND POLICY
Camp Sessions paid in full – Please note that your Summer Camp purchase is NON REFUNDABLE. To protect
your investment please consider purchasing Summer Camp Insurance (below).
Camp Sessions on a payment plan - Payment Plans require a $99 initial payment # 1, as well as two equal payments
of the remaining balance. Cancelling the second and third installments of a summer camp payment plan is possible
prior to May 9th 2014. However, there are no refunds on the initial payment # 1.
Big No’s- Woodward at Copper camp does have a set of rules known as the Camp Big No’s (zero tolerance policy)
that campers must follow during their camp session. If a camper violates any of the Woodward at Copper Big
No’s they will need to leave camp early with no refund. The enclosed Woodward at Copper Big No’s
Agreement must be completed and returned no later than May 12, 2014.
Summer Camp Insurance- You’ve looked forward to Woodward at Copper for months. But things don’t always go
according to plan. To help protect your investment please consider purchasing Summer Camp Insurance. For
more details contact a reservations agent 888-350-1544.
CONTACTING CAMPERS (for campers under the age of 18)
We recommend that campers arrive with a phone card or cell phone. We encourage campers to call home during
the afternoon of the second day, as we have found this helps to prevent homesickness. Please keep conversations
upbeat and positive by focusing on coaching sessions and recreational activities. In the event of an emergency,
Woodward at Copper Summer Camp may be reached on the following phone numbers:
Hours:
E.D.G.E. Housing office 970-968-2318 x 60824

Woodward at Copper
PO Box 3001
Copper Mountain, CO 80443
When shipping a package via FedEx or UPS, use the following address:
Camper’s Name, Room #______
The E.D.G.E. – Woodward at Copper
50 Beeler Place POB 3001
Copper Mountain, CO 80443-3001
*Please note that when sending a package it is a good idea to send express 2-3 day shipping to ensure your camper
receives their package.
Visiting Camp
We enforce a strict “No Strangers” policy and ask that all visitors check in with our camp office, which is located in
The E.D.G.E. prior to visiting a camper. We encourage Day Campers and family members of campers to stay at
Copper Mountain, and offer special lodging rates when booking through reservations 888-350-1544. Recommended
visiting hours are from 5pm to 9pm.
Stay-over Campers
We have special weekend instructional and recreational programs for campers staying multiple weeks. These
include Barn sessions, off site field trips, as well as Copper Mountain recreational activities. Stay-over campers are
subject to the Summer Camp Additional Day/Night fee of $149 per day or night. Be sure to plan for spending
money as appropriate.
*Please see the Summer Camp FAQ for further information.
HOMESICKNESS (for campers under the age of 18)
Many people, young and old, experience feelings of homesickness when faced with a new set of living conditions.
Like many emotional expressions, homesickness is very contagious and must be recognized as such. Our staff is
trained to handle these problems. Should a camper call and express feelings of homesickness, please notify us and
we will work closely with you to alleviate the problem.
Sleep-away camp offers an excellent opportunity for campers to learn how well they can manage without their
parents and that other adults care about them. It has been our experience that it is more often the parents that are
having a difficult time adjusting to their camper’s absence or overreacting to a camper’s early anxiety at being away
from home. Check your own feelings about having a camper gone for an extended period of time. If you are not
ready yourself, you may unwittingly make it difficult for your child to be away from you, consequently spurring
feelings of guilt or feelings that he or she doesn’t have permission to enjoy himself or herself outside your view.
Understandably, parents may feel helpless when they hear their child upset over the phone. Resist the urge to make
promises about picking your child up or visiting. A visit from home interrupts their day, takes their attention from
new friends and fun activities, and often spawns or exasperates homesickness.
For more information on homesickness, we recommend reviewing Dr. Chris Thurber’s work at
www.campspirit.com.
SPENDING MONEY (for campers under the age of 18)
Make sure to think about spending money prior to camp. Campers typically spend $50-$1,000 per week and
sometimes more on snacks and souvenirs like Woodward t-shirts, hats, hoodies, sunglasses, Create-A-Skate, skate
decks, and lots more. Remember if your camper is flying in and flying out make sure to set aside cash for baggage
fees, unaccompanied minor fees, or prepay for these Airline services in advance.
Cash Bank Account
We have a safe and secure cash bank system set up at camp. Campers will be able to keep any cash he/she brings
with them in our safe. We put the cash into an envelope and keep track of every withdrawal, as well as the camper’s
bank total. The cash bank is deposited during camp check-in at the E.D.G.E. and is the best option for campers to
have spending money good anywhere at Copper.
*There are onsite ATMs for cash withdrawal
Camper Store Credit
Campers also have the option of store credit that is valid at any Woodward at Copper location, including
Woodward at Copper’s Camp Store, as well as several Copper owned retail outlets. Parents can set any maximum
spend amount and enjoy the flexibility of being able to increase spending limits with a phone call. They can also
rest easy as the remaining balance of the camper’s store credit will be refunded at the end of each camp week, or by
August 3rd 2014 at the latest. Please complete and return the enclosed Camper Store Credit form if you wish to
provide this information. For a faster Camp check in process, please fill out this form and send to our offices prior
to arrival.
