GROUND RULES EMERGENCIES
1. Please show care and consideration for everyone on-site and for
the site itself. 2. Smoking is not allowed anywhere on-site. In the case of an emergency, please contact your sub-camp leader
or the campsite office. Medical help is available 24 hours a day. If
you need medical help just ask at the St. John Ambulance area or
any member of staff.
3. Alcohol must not be brought into or consumed on-site. QUIET PLEASE
4. No-one who is intoxicated will be permitted to either enter or
remain on the site. PLEASE be quiet at night. If you want to stay up late, please respect
those who are trying to sleep. Noise carries across the campsite
at night. A strict quiet curfew will be enforced in the camping area
from 01:00 onwards.
5. Wristbands or passes must be worn at all times to obtain
entrance to all events.
6. No mixed sleeping (unless married).
7. Tents must be at least 3 metres apart and should not be pitched
without permission from the sub-camp leader.
8. Do not cook inside tents other than the designated cook tents.
9. No camp fires or disposable barbeques to be used on the grass.
EVENT CREW
Our Event Crew work long hours to make your festival experience
trouble-free and enjoyable as possible. They have volunteered their
time for you, so why not give them a smile (or a couple of your
sweets) to let them know they’re appreciated?
ACCESS TO THE BIG TOP
Access to the Big Top is solely available via the Tearfund Café.
LOST WRISTBANDS
11. Valuables left in tents or cars are left entirely at the owner’s risk. If you lose your wristband the cost of a replacement is £5.00. These
will only be replaced if verified by your leader (in person) and if ID is
presented at the Admin Tent.
12. Litter must not be left around the site as there are plenty of bins
available. Please use them! Crossing into any area demarcated by red and white tape is
forbidden (this will constitute trespassing).
13. No pets to be kept on-site. This is a festival run by humans for
humans. Pets are not humans. Summer Madness wishes to make it clear that it does not favour
sectarian propaganda or proselytizing within the Christian
fellowship and anyone involved in these practices will be escorted
off-site. This means that any group or individual which uses the SM
Festival and its facilities for such purposes does so against the spirit
of the event and could face a ban from future events.
10. No unauthorised vehicles allowed in the festival village area.
LEADERS’ RESPONSIBILITIES
Those who are identified on bookings as leaders are responsible
for their group. Leaders should not allow campers under their care
to go off-site without their permission or without a specific time at
which to report back. Leaders should not go off-site without leaving
some other adult responsible for their group and should inform the
sub-camp leader of this change. In the case of an emergency, we
need to be able to contact the leader as soon as possible.
Summer Madness reserves the right to cancel any booking (be it
that of any individual or group) that the organisers deem necessary
and escort all concerned parties off the premises if these ground
rules are not obs erved.
