FREE TIME: Youth under 18 should be under adult supervision at all times. This helps keep them safe, provides time for the adults to be mentoring role models, and prevents damage to the camp. A successful way to offer free time is to designate 3-4 areas that campers can chose from, and then have adults stationed at each area.
