Hello Camper Families!

Break out the oars, course set for Manito-wish! As we prepare for camp, we wanted to share some helpful tips to get your campers ready. We also have a video highlighting what your child will experience at camp. Please remember to complete your paperwork in advance to help shorten the Check-In process.

Medications & Prescriptions💊

Does your child have any medications they will need to take while at camp? Please ensure that all medications are in their properly labeled containers and that your child has enough for the duration of their stay. Any medications, including over-the-counter medicines, must be turned in to the nurses. Our nurses will securely store all medications, and they are the only individuals who will have access to them. There will be a nurse available 24/7!
