Safety routines
Sign-in and pickup
An adult on your list signs your camper in and out at the door, and we ask for ID until we know you. A camper goes home only with someone on that list, and we call you if a different adult comes.
Allergies, medicine and illness
Tell us about allergies and medicine at registration, and we ask what we need privately. A camper with a fever stays home. If a camper feels ill at camp, we call you and an adult stays with them until you arrive.
Sun, shade and water
Camp is outdoors for much of the day. There is shade on both lawns, water at every block and a break between blocks. Send your camper with a hat and sunscreen already on, and we remind campers to put more on after sprinkler play.
Heat and weather
When the day is very hot or a storm is near, outdoor blocks move into the fellowship hall and the classrooms, and we text families before camp starts.
Devotion, for campers of any faith
Morning devotion is part of every day. A camper who would rather listen than sing or pray is welcome to sit and listen, and we never ask about your family's church.
Fire and storm drills
On the first morning of every week we walk each group to the exits and the shelter spot, so every camper has done it once before it matters.
