SUMMARY OF CAMP RULES
Breaking camp rules may result in the eviction of you and your group.
Full Glass Ban:
This means NO glass what so ever in the camp, this includes mirrors. Please place your alcohol into plastic containers before arriving or we will have plastic riggers that you can purchase at the check in office. Bringing in glass or breaking other camp rules may result in the eviction of not only you but also your group.
Total Fire Ban:
A total fire ban is in place in our camp and the Maitai Valley. No fires of any description, this also means charcoal BBQ’s, cooking fires and fireworks. Fireworks are very dangerous in the camp due to the dry conditions of the trees/grass at this time of the year.
Gas Barbeques will be permitted.

Vehicles:
All vehicles are subject to a car search on your arrival.
Vehicles are not to be used for sleeping, as due to security reasons vehicles may need to be removed. This includes vans and buses (buses to park in car-park only).
Confiscated items will include; all glass, fireworks, knives, large furniture (couches), mirrors, walkie-talkies, marker pens/spray paint, candles/citronella burners, wooden/metal bats, liquid fuel (meths, petrol, kerosene) and any other item that security or management deem dangerous or unsafe will not be returned. So leave them at home.
Returnable items will include; sports equipment (for use outside the camp) i.e. plastic cricket/ softball sets only, golf clubs, fishing rods, also car tools, hammers and mallets, generators (will be returned on departure only) they can be signed in and signed out again.
A maximum of one vehicle per site is allowed and in some instances one per booking group. Please note that vehicles may need to be removed for security reasons and it is at management’s discretion to do so. For additional vehicles there will be parking in the security area beside the booking in office. This area is patrolled and flood lighting in place.
The maximum speed is 5km,which is walking speed only inside the camp and car park area. Vehicles must only be driven to your campsite and out of the camp again. Cars are not to be driven around the camp. Vehicles will be removed if this happens and drivers evicted. It is very dangerous to have drinking campers behind the wheel and inside the camping area. Vehicles must not be used as transport around the camp.
Identification Wristbands:
Upon checking in you will be issued with a numbered wristband. This band must be worn at all times and people with no bands will be escorted out of the camp. Please look after your band, as it will cost $10.00 to replace a broken band (must be handed in), and $30.00 for a lost band. I.D. will be required for this.
Noise:
You will be required to keep noise to a minimum between 11.00 pm and 7.30 am with exceptions on New Years Eve.
General:
You will be booked into block B, C, D or E and can choose your tent site when you arrive. The earlier date of arrival the more choice you have.
Entertainment: There will be music from 28 Dec 2010 to 1 January 2011 at night. This was pretty awesome last year and well received by the campers. On 28th December we have four live bands and from 29 December until the night of the 1 January 2011 our AWESOME Nelson DJ’s will keep you entertained in the evenings.
All campers are responsible for keeping their site clean, tidy and free of rubbish.
Failure to do this may result in eviction as sites become fire hazards.

If a camper’s behaviour is unacceptable and unable to be controlled by fellow-campers in the group and/or staff, it is at the discretion of security and management if the entire site or group is evicted.
