During camp phone calls are generally not
a good idea. Some campers may be doing just fine till the sound
of a parent's voice triggers a setback unexpected by either party.
If for some reason you do wind up on the phone with a crying, homesick
child, you need to be supportive, encouraging, positive about his
ability to adjust. At any times our phones will be active and you
can call us to get the report on your child's progress.
Our approach is to...
1 Be supportive, encouraging, empathetic and available to talk things
out.
2 Try to identify and solve any underlying problems (being teased,
perhaps) or help him learn to live with the insoluble ones (it's
raining, the water's cold, etc.).
3 Keep you informed.
All camp
locations are not very far from the city limits. We have a list
of all medical centers close to camp. Also we carry basic first
aid on the camp and all our instructors are trained in basic first
aid. All our adventure personals are trained in Basic First Aid
courses. During the Camps first aid kits are carried and the trainers
are trained to give basic first aid immediately.
We encourage you to allow then to pack their
bags. This helps them know where their things are and thus makes
them more in charge. Most times we notice children NOT using half
the things they carry to camp, but have been lugging it around for
most part of the camp. Please avoid this and pack according to the
list given with the enrollment KIT.
