Campfire Chronicle #2 | April 2025

Let's Talk About Safety!


At Camp Three Rivers, safety isn't just a priority—it's part of the experience. We believe fun can only happen when kids feel safe, supported, and free to be themselves. Our staff works hard to create a welcoming environment where every camper can thrive—and every parent can rest easy.


Before Camp:

  • All staff undergo background checks (CORI & SORI)
  • All camp staff are CPR & First Aid certified
  • Counselors attend comprehensive pre-camp training covering emergency protocols, behavior management, HR policies, and inclusion practices


During Camp:

  • Staff-to-camper ratios are maintained at all times
  • Camper pick-up requires ID verification
  • Dedicated Health Care Supervisor on-site daily
  • Regular hydration and sunscreen reminders
  • Emergency drills are practiced throughout the summer
  • Certified Inclusion Specialists on-site daily
  • All campers must pass a swim test to use the deep end
  • Certified Lifeguards are always present during swim time


Behind the Scenes:

  • Camp Three Rivers is licensed through the Board of Health
  • Our policies follow the Massachusetts Camp Code regulations
  • We foster a judgment-free, inclusive space for all campers
  • Campers may ask for a break at any time
  • Swimming is encouraged, but never required


At Camp Three Rivers, we celebrate individuality, kindness, and respect for all. Camp is a magical experience, and we're committed to making every child's summer a joy-filled adventure they'll always remember.


Stay Wild!
