FALLS CREEK DRESS CODE The intent of the Falls Creek dress code is to provide an equitable dress code for all campers that will encourage modesty above legalism. Parents and church leaders are urged to see that only clothing that meets the policies and regulations of the conference center is brought to Falls Creek. Please do not bring to Falls Creek clothing that you sense would be questionable for a Christian camp setting. Since Falls Creek is a Christian camp with a distinctly Christian atmosphere, the New Testament principle of modesty should always be the standard for dress at Falls Creek. It is the responsibility of the sponsors from each church to model the standard and to enforce the camp dress code. While on Falls Creek grounds campers may not wear apparel that exposes the midriff, is extremely tight fitting or has writing on the back of pants or shorts. Apparel may not display or promote tobacco, alcohol, controlled substances or inappropriate language or pictures. All shorts and dresses should be modest length. At Falls Creek, modest shorts are generally defined as shorts that have at least a five inch inseam or longer and dresses and skirts should be four inches from the top of the knee or longer. Slits in dresses and skirts should also be modest in length. Shirts/tops must have at least three inches of solid, non-see-through material across the shoulder so the shoulder is covered. Tank tops are not allowed. Sleeveless shirts are acceptable, but must go from the neck to the shoulder seam and not be split down the side. Shoes and shirts must be worn at all times outside the cabins, except while swimming. Modest swimming suits are appropriate while swimming. A dark t-shirt must be worn over two-piece swimming suits. Men should not wear tight fitting swimming suits. While going to and from the swimming areas all campers must wear shoes; men must wear a t-shirt, and ladies must wear a long covering over their swimming suits.
