We suggest that you send a note, listing any lost items with your child to camp.

MEDICAL
Please refer to the routine medication administration form which can be downloaded for details about daily medication at camp. If your child requires medication for a temporary period of time (i.e. antibiotics, etc.) please give these to your child’s van counselor. The medication will then be given to the nurse upon arrival at camp. If your child is dropped off by a parent, you may give the medication to the staff member who helps to unload the cars at the arrival point. It will then be given to the nurse. Please make sure all medications are sent to camp in their original containers, accompanied by detailed instructions. If your child’s dosage is not a full pill, please pre-cut the tablets.
DO NOT PUT ANY MEDICATION IN YOUR CHILD’S BAG !
