• Participants are expected to be considerate of others in terms of taking showers, playing music and talking loudly.
• Participants are expected to respect their peers and to refrain from taking photos or recordings while in the bunkhouses as this is a private area.

Media

• The Course has official photographers/videographers to document the week, take group photos etc.
• Participants who do not wish to have their image used for the promotion of KnockadoonMusic and Liturgy Course must make this known to the Course Director on their application form.
• If you have taken photos/video during the week, please obtain the permission of those in your photographs if you wish to publish them online or in other media. It is illegal to publish a person’s photo without their permission.
• It is necessary, when sharing images or videos taken by others, both to obtain the photographer’s/ videographer’s permission and to acknowledge their copyright.

Water Safety & Swimming

Please note that despite its close proximity, Knockadoon pier and slipway are outside the boundary of Camp (see Basics above).

• Extreme care should be taken when going out on the pier as it can be very slippery with dangerous falls on both sides.
• Swimming can only take place at appointed times and in the presence of a qualified lifeguard.
