How often are the grounds/facilities of Covenant Point inspected?
The retreat centre is inspected by the United Church staff. However, prior to every event held, we always ensure that our staff peruse the facilities to ensure the safety of the facilities and ISIVCF supervision standards. Additionally, during orientation an Emergency Action Plan will take place, so that students are aware of the locations of fire extinguishers, exits and gathering points, should an emergency take place.
