Is there a dress code?

Dress Code

Yes.

The following guidelines are given as a form of standardization for Friendship ABY Camp, Inc. We realize that families and churches have their own convictions regarding dress. The Bible is clear about the need for modesty and not causing others to lust. General Guidelines are Modesty. Christian men/boys and women/girls are asked to dress in a manner that personifies the principle that we are temples of God. (1 Corinthians 12:22-27) Our dress should show sensitivity to the spiritual well being of those who see us; it should also reflect a desire to glorify God in a manner that is not vain, boastful, bold or forward. Identification with the Lord and not the world. (1 Corinthians 10:31-33)

Girls Dress

The following types of clothing are not to be worn - midriff shirts, spaghetti strap tanks tops, halter tops, or tank tube tops, shorts shorter than fingertips in length when arms are relaxed at the sides, or sheer garments. Logos or printing on t-shirts must not be offensive.

Swimming: Swimsuits are to be one piece or a tankini that covers the stomach area, and feminine parts of the body are covered. In addition, there are to be no cut outs in the body of the swimsuit. Cover up/t-shirt is required for wearing to and from the pool. Swimsuits are to be worn only at the pool and during transportation to and from the pool.

Boys Dress

The following types of clothing are not to be worn - midriff shirts, tank tops that are tight or sheer garments. Logos or printing on t-shirts must not be offensive.

Swimming: Swimsuits are to be boxer type shorts and a shirt/t-shirt worn to and from the pool. Swimsuits are to be worn only at the pool and during transportation to and from the pool.

Chapel: There is no special dress code for chapel, hats are not to be worn during chapel.

Indiana State law requires shoes to be worn, at all times, except at the swimming pool. Camp leadership prefers tennis shoes rather than flip flops for most activities, however flip flops are appropriate for wearing to the pool and shower.
