How do you handle allergies at camp?

We take allergies very seriously. As part of the enrollment process, you’ll complete a detailed registration form with any information we should know about your camper’s allergies (seasonal, food, and/or life threatening). Before camp begins, we welcome you to contact us to speak with our Camp Nurse with any questions or to talk through any concerns or specific instructions you, or your physician, may have.

We designate nut-free tables during snack and lunchtime and enforce a strict hand-washing policy. Our staff members are trained in how to recognize the signs of anaphylactic shock and administer an EpiPen, if needed. Parents are responsible for making sure their child’s EpiPen is not expired. EpiPens brought to camp will always remain with your camper’s counselor with written orders from your child’s physician.
