High School aged "runners" (not track people...)

“Runners” are youth that disappear suddenly from an event or activity. For older youth, especially if they have driven to the event:

• Just mention that you worry about them when they disappear, and that you really need to know when they leave so you don't drop everything and go looking for them.
  
• If it is a camp or retreat, it may be necessary to call the parent to say they have left and you no longer can be responsible for them. It is, of course, best for a lot of reasons that no youth brings their car to an event such as a camp or retreat.
