General

What is SISC?

SISC is part of SMil. The abbreviation stands for SMil’s International Summer Camps. SISC is a non-commercial organisation.

SISC organizes weeks and special events for people into BDSM at their own premises.
The main events of the year are the summer camps, which can be attended by everyone around the world, no matter which colour, religion, political belief or sexual preference.

What is SMil?

SMil is the union of sadomasochists in Denmark. SMil Denmark has 5 departments in the 4 major cities in Denmark, including SISC.

How about privacy?

Although we need the full name and address of all participants, the SISC filekeeper is the only person who will know your full data. He/she is allowed only to use your first name, two first letters of your surname and nationality for SISC internal documents (membership cards, camp list etc.)

For instance, Peter Watson, London becomes Peter Wa., GB, 05159. There is no reporting of the campers’ names to any authority anywhere.

Your email address will only used by the Filekeeper and not be given to anyone else.

The week

Do I need to take a matrass with me to the sleeper?

For everyone that stays in the sleeper, a matrass is available. You don't need to bring your own matrass, but it is recommended to bring a pillow, bed blanket and sheets. If you are staying in your own tent or caravan, please bring your own matrass.

I booked for a week, but I have to leave before it ends. Is that possible?

No, that is not possible for all weeks, except the Hotel Week 31 Mixed Week 42.

For weeks 28, 29, 30, 31 and 32 you book and stay for the whole week / event, so it is not possible to leave before it ends. This is to keep the camp spirit - if there are people leaving during the week, it disturbs the camp a lot. It is out of experience we have this rule.

If there is an emergency and you have to leave earlier, then you should talk to the camp manager.

Can I stay in the camp for only 1 or 2 nights?

You can stay in the camp for 1 or 2 nights if you attend the Hotel Week, week number 31. All other summer weeks are only full weeks, and it is expected that you will stay for a whole week.

The Hotel Week is a good week to start SISC if you have never been there before. You can try out if it is something for you, and taste the special atmosphere.

I'll be arriving later, is that possible?

It is really important that everyone arrives at the time stated in the booking. All weeks start at 12.00 on arrival day, but please arrive no later than 17.00.

If you have to arrive later than 17.00, please contact us so we know you are ok. It will however never be allowed for anybody to arrive 24 hours after the SISC event starts.

What should I bring?

Besides your personal play gear / clothes / accessories, also bring bed blankets or sleeping bags, towels, pillows and sheets. We can also recommend house coats and slippers if you would like to use the hot tub and sauna.

Also remember to bring Danish Kroner. We don't take credit cards at the farm. There is a bank option around 15 minutes drive from the farm.

Is it possible to check my email at the farm?

Yes, SISC has a camp PC with Internet access where you can get browser access to your mail.

Do I have my own room at the camp?

No, the camp is not a hotel. There is a big building called the sleeper where there are beds. Curtains have been put up for privacy purposes, making small ”rooms” for 1 or 2 beds. Attached to the sleeper are 2 toilets and 4 shared showers. In the main building is a space with 2 toilets. Behind the sleeper is an area to put up tents or campers, devided into slots, with or without electricity.

Is there someone there that I can play with?

SISC doesn’t reserve people so you can go and pick the person you want to play with. We are not an escort agency. SISC organizes the camp and opens the premises for a group of people who have to make the stay themselves. SISC has only got a few rules on the behaviour at the camp and other than that you are free to go and mingle. So if you are single it is up to you. Getting to play with someone is usually not really a problem due to the number of people around. Just do not count on it that you will be collared and cuffed the moment you arrive at the camp.

Can we do scat games?

Unfortunately, the SISC farm is not equipped in a way that would allow scat games.

Order and pay

How do I book a camp stay?

You can order one of the weeks here. Just fill in the form with all your data, the Filekeeper will then send you a confirmation of your booking. Once you payed half the amount of the camp stay, your booking will be final.

How does the procedure of booking go?

First you go to the booking form and fill out all details including your full, real name. After you sent it in, you'll get an email with an overview of your request and more information on what to do. When you get this email, you should pay at least 50% of the amount at once to insure your booking. Note that sometimes you will have to pay the full amount on booking - please read the instructions on the first email.

After payment, your booking is confirmed and you'll get a final email from SISC. In the final mail, there are 'how to get here' with directions to the farm.

When I try to book, I have to give my membership number, but, I do not have one. How can I get one in order to book?

If you have never been to the summer camps before, you will become a new member and get a membership number yourself.

After you filled in the form with your name and address + the week that you want to attend, we'll send you a overview of your booking with instructions on how to pay.

You will have to confirm your booking yourself by paying 50% or the whole amount on that statement (depending on when you booked). After we saw your payment in our bank, you'll receive a final confimation email with information on how to get to the farm.

How do I become a member SISC?

You will become a member of SISC once you signed up for a week. After you signed up for a week, you will get an overview of your booking where your membership number is mentioned.

After you have been in one of the weeks at least once, you can also become a member of SISC's website.

How do I become a member of the SISC website?

You can sign up for membership of the SISC website if you have been attending at least one of the weeks. That means that if you are a new member and you just signed up for a week, you'll have to wait until after your week in order to sign up for the website.

How many meals do I get a day?

We serve 3 meal a day: breakfast, lunch and dinner.

I am a vegan/vegetarian, do you provide for that?

Yes, we serve normal vegetarian food. When you sign up for a week, please mark that you are a vegetarian. Unfortunately, we can't provide for vegan food or other special wishes.

So where is this camp? It is in Denmark. Centrally placed. And sorry, we only tell those people who make reservations.

Other

Can I ask the Filekeeper to get me into contact with other campers?

No, the Filekeeper keeps everyone’s data secret. So for instance, if you need to drive with someone, you should log in the website and make a posting in one of the forums or look up the person under 'Members' to see if they have signed up there. Otherwise, you could log in and post a note in the forum to reach the other members.
