Consent & Authorization – YEP Cabin Experience
I, the parent/guardian of the above-named student, give permission for my child to participate in The Allen Blash Foundation (ABF) Youth Empowerment Program (YEP) Cabin Experience, taking place in Spartanburg, SC and Pigeon Forge, TN.
I understand that this is a multi-day overnight camp experience (5–6 days) that includes transportation, lodging, outdoor activities, mentorship programming, and supervised group experiences.
By signing below, I acknowledge and agree to the following:
1. Supervision & Conduct
My child is expected to follow all rules, instructions, and behavioral expectations set by ABF staff at all times. I understand that this is a structured, overnight leadership experience, and inappropriate behavior—including threats, aggression, or noncompliance—may result in disciplinary action, including immediate dismissal from the program at my expense.
2. Medical Authorization
In the event of illness or injury, I authorize ABF staff to seek emergency medical treatment for my child if I cannot be reached. I understand that I am financially responsible for any medical care provided.
3. Liability Acknowledgment
I understand that participation in this camp includes travel, outdoor recreation, and group-based activities, which carry inherent risks. While ABF will take all reasonable precautions to ensure safety, I acknowledge these risks and agree not to hold The Allen Blash Foundation, its staff, volunteers, or partners liable for injuries, accidents, or unforeseen incidents that may occur.
4. Transportation Permission
I give permission for my child to be transported to and from all program locations, including out-of-town travel (Pigeon Forge, TN), as well as to participate in all scheduled activities during the experience.
5. Overnight Stay & Lodging
I understand that my child will be staying overnight in shared cabin-style lodging with other participants and under the supervision of ABF staff. I acknowledge that this is a group living environment and agree to my child participating under these conditions.
6. Media Release
I grant permission for ABF to capture photos and videos of my child during the program for use in promotional materials, social media, and program documentation.
7. Financial Responsibility
I understand that submission of this application does not guarantee acceptance. If selected, I agree to meet all payment deadlines or complete the scholarship application process. I understand that failure to do so may result in forfeiture of my child’s spot.
8. Commitment to Full Participation
I understand this is a structured leadership and development experience. My child is expected to fully participate in all scheduled activities, including group sessions, outings, and mentorship components, unless otherwise approved by ABF staff.
By signing my name below, I confirm that I have read, understood, and agree to all terms outlined above.
