Lice Check
In order to prevent the spread of head lice, we ask parents to check their child’s hair 2 weeks before their camp begins and also the morning before they leave for camp. All campers will be checked for lice at registration time. The driver must remain until all of his/her campers have passed this inspection. Any camper found to have either lice or nits will not be allowed to stay at camp, but will be given a set of instructions on what will need to be done before returning to camp if they desire. Thank you for your understanding in this matter.
