* Always be aware of the safety issues attached to any activity you are involved in.

Site Security

PAC X-5 Security will be known as Property Protection Officers, being based in the buildings known as Melaleuca. Property Protection Officers are Campers who in addition to taking part in the full program will be keeping on eye on vacant Camp Companies when groups are either off-site, at meals or in the Auditorium.The unit will be staffed 24 hours per day and may be seen on small "postie" bikes around the site. Camp Company Officers are responsible for the well-being of the Boys under their control. Property Protection will enhance everyone's safety by contributing to this vital function. All campers and visitors are required to carry visible means of identification (either a Camper's Identification Card or a Visitor's Card) at ALL times. Camp Security staff will be patrolling the site and will challenge those without visible identification or those outside their designated area. A curfew will be applied to areas of the campsite at various times (eg after dark) - these areas are strictly out of bounds after the time designated in the program. Campers are not to leave the site other than on scheduled activities. In the event of an emergency that requires a camper to leave the site, Camp Administration can issue a Leave Pass that is to be cleared through the Administration Centre when leaving and returning. Always wear your Camp ID tag so we know who you are.
