**Inshala takes care in offering a welcoming and safe space for all attendees to freely express themselves. This includes the children. In moving forward into Inshala 15, we are having an open dialogue with the community regarding us all taking responsibility in ensuring that respect is not only offered to each other, but all areas of the park. As organizers we request that you know where you children are at all times.
**As a parent or guardian of your child(ren), we are requesting that you have this conversation with your child. Please communicate the intentions of each space within the park. Not all spaces are intended as a playground. We need to ensure that all of us are in the support of the well being of all aspects of the area. We thank you for taking part in this education with your children, as we all contribute to care of each other and this Camp Out <3
