Lodging/Cabin Accommodations

Whenever possible, separate cabins or lodging should be provided for male and female adults as well as for male and female youth. Where separate accommodations cannot be provided due to group size or limited availability, modifications may be made. Where completely separate accommodations are not available, additional supervision is required.

  • If adults and youth of the same gender occupy single-room accommodations, there must be a minimum of two adults and four youth, with all adults being Youth Protection trained.
  • Physical separation by other means, including temporary barriers or space, should be used only when no other arrangements are possible.
  • These modifications are limited to single-gender accommodations.

This will apply to cabins at all of our properties such as: Legion Lodge (MSR) and Walker (Camp Stambaugh).

This does allow male leaders to be in the same room as male youth as long as the above accommodations are met. This would NOT apply for Male leaders and Female youth or vice versa.
