Valley Youth Fiddlers - Northwest Fiddle Camp

General Guidelines

At Northwest Fiddle Camp, our top priority is creating a safe, respectful, and enjoyable environment for everyone. To help ensure this, we reserve the right to ask any camper, participant, or family to leave if their behavior puts the safety or well-being of others—or camp property—at risk. Please note that in such cases, refunds cannot be given, and any damages may result in additional charges.

Visitors

To help keep everyone safe, we ask that friends and family who are not registered campers do not visit the grounds unless they have received special permission from Valley Youth Fiddlers. Thank you for understanding!

Safety & Liability

We do our best to provide a safe camp experience, but we cannot take responsibility for accidents or illnesses. We strongly recommend that all campers have adequate health insurance coverage.

Respect for Camp Property

Please enjoy the spaces designated for our use—but remember that buildings and areas outside of our rental agreement are off-limits. Thanks for helping us be good guests!

Personal Belongings

We’re not able to take responsibility for lost, stolen, or damaged items. A lost-and-found will be available at the merchandise/info table if anything goes missing.

Volunteer Expectations

The Northwest Fiddle Camp is dependent on participants committing a few hours of your camp time doing some volunteer activities. It helps to keep costs manageable, but almost more importantly, we feel that the time spent doing some work along side your fellow Fiddle Campers helps to bring people together and creates a more positive experience for all.

Swimming

• No lifeguard provided. 
• Parental supervision required.

Smoking

• No smoking or vaping.

Alcohol

• We ask that you please respect Rock Nest’s zero alcohol policy.

Cleaning

• Buildings and grounds must be left tidy and clean, leave everything as you found it.

Animals

• No pets. We know you love them… but even cute pets are not allowed at camp. There are several local kennels. Trained service dogs are of course exempt.
