If you are an external group, it is important to be aware that insurance is required for approval. The University Risk Department must review and approve the insurance in order for your Summer Conference to take place.
The University has specific insurance requirements that must be met in order for the camp to be approved. These requirements include commercial general liability, workers' compensation insurance, automobile liability insurance, additional insured endorsement, abuse and molestation (if minors are involved), and more.
If you do not have existing insurance coverage that meets the university's requirements, you may consider purchasing a short-term policy specifically for the duration of your camp from The University Risk Department.
