Mason Dixon Scholarship Camp Dress Code
Campers (and parents) are required to exercise modesty and discretion regarding the selection of camper's clothing. It is our policy and attention that your clothing does not draw attention to yourself. Christian young people can hurt their testimony by the clothing they wear and the way they wear it. Outfits, which are too tight, too short or offensively imprinted, although not intentionally worn to be provocative, nonetheless often are. As such, they are not honoring to the Lord, and should be avoided. With this in mind, the following dress code will be used at Mason Dixon Scholarship Camp.
Girls
- All shirts, blouses and dresses must have sleeves.
- Halter-tops and bare-midriff clothing are not allowed.
- Shorts are acceptable, but must be no shorter than three (3) inches above the knee (approximately the width of a dollar bill above the knee). Shorts must also be of the loose fitting "walking shorts" variety and not split-sided jogging shorts, or "spandex" style bicycle shorts alone or under other shorts.
- Dresses and skirts must be below the knee.
- T-shirts and other garments with "worldly writing or language" are not allowed.
Boys
- T-shirts and other garments with "worldly writing or language" are not allowed.
- All shirts must have sleeves.
- Shorts are acceptable, but must be no shorter than three (3) inches above the knee (approximately the width of a dollar bill above the knee). Shorts must also be of the loose fitting "walking shorts" variety and not split-sided jogging shorts, or "spandex" style bicycle shorts alone or under other shorts.
Swimwear
Girls - one-piece with full front lining. No cut-offs, plunging necklines, and/or high-cut leg openings are allowed. A cover shirt must be worn to and from the pool.
Boys - race-type swim wear (tank suit) is not allowed. No cut-offs are allowed in the pool. A cover shirt must be worn to and from the pool.
This dress code is not intended to be "heavy-handed" or restrictive, but it is for the purpose of avoiding any problems before they start.
Our goal is for Christian young people to have a wonderful time at camp and make lasting and meaningful relationships with Christ and other campers. Adherence to the moderate dress code goes a long way in accomplishing that goal.
