That's a new one all together.
Is that your interpretation, or was there also a punishment refered to as "Isolation"? If so, how was it different than the other punishments? Might that be for, say, holding a kid who has turned 18, when they're trying to coerce him/her to stay?

It is more of an interpretation, I mentioned something about kids refusing to go to RCI. When a kid over 18 is pending to go to RCI and they refuse, they go to the Shalay, b/c RC cannot legally accept them unless the kid signs a consent form or something like that. While the kid is at the Shalay, they have a staff watching the entrance to the Shalay 24/7. From when I saw the dorm charts, It was usually an HLA staff. I am not sure though about what happens during the night shift. Also, if a kid is supposed to go to RC, but for some odd reason RCI doesn't want to take them (there were a couple instances of that), the kid was put in the Shalay until the situation was resolved. This usually ended in dismissal.

--- Quote from: ""Deborah"" ---So, to summarize:
The length of the punishment was not stated- Or it was assumed that you'd stay until you produced the information they wanted. (Sounds like a POW camp)
No contact with parents.
No personal hygiene.
Limited calories and water.
Manual labor.
Sleeping outdoors with no protection from the elements.
All violations of ORS regulations for RCFs. And HLA claims that the RCF regulations aren't appropriate/ too restrictive for their "private boarding school".
And these were Masters Level Counselors issuing this austere and unethical punishment, and sometimes on a hunch? What happened to innocent until proven guilty?
When did this occur? Several alleged staff have posted on Fornits that they stopped limiting calories for Restrictions and that Restrictions ate with and the same thing as the gen pop. Some students have even confirmed that it improved, shortly after RC was forced to be licensed. When the catering company was hire to provide meals. Did all those things just shift to a new catagory of "Super Restrictions"?
By the way, where is Restrictions Village? Is that where the Chalet is? And I assume it's not RC and RC staff were not supervising this punishment. Is that correct?

There is NO innocent until proven guilty at HLA. In fat even after proven innocent, you're still guilty. They'll find another reason for you to be guilty of something. Restrictions food did get better. It went from cheese sandwiches and soup to what gen. population got to eat. One serving on hot food, no fruit, and only a few pieces of bread. You could make a sandwich or salad. Also just water, gatorade or milk. No juice, which was fine, it wasn't real juice anyways.

Another term- crisis "shadow" trips. What's that? Where does it fit in the line up of punishments?
In 1996 (until 99), Patrick (Logan) moved back east to join Hidden
Lake Academy as their Assistant Wilderness Director; Patrick ran HLA?s Overnight, 4- and 10-day expeditions and their crisis ?shadow? trips, and directed field training for all wilderness staff.
