Camp Shalom provides camper lists, which include the name, address and telephone numbers of campers, to its associate camp, Camp Solelim, for the purpose of providing your child with the opportunity of continuing in the ongoing youth movement program. Camp Shalom also provides its campers with the names, addresses, telephone numbers of other campers should they wish to communicate once the camp season has ended. At the conclusion of your camper's session, you may opt-in to sharing additional contact information with your fellow camp families to maintain connections with other campers during the year. Your personal information is managed and accessed by our Information and Health Custodians and, where necessary only, the staff who supervise your child.

Camp Shalom has permission to use any photograph, video image, likeness, utterance or statement in which your child may appear to be involved, in whole or in part, in any media (including the Internet) for promotional or other purposes without approval by or compensation to the camper or parent/guardian. The information collected on the registration form will only be used by Camp Shalom to provide the camp experience for which you have registered, respond to your needs and to make you aware of opportunities at Camp Shalom and its affiliate camps.
