SESSION 5

A Note from Your Camp Director

Dear Parents,

We hope you find this newsletter helpful, as it will give you in detail what lies ahead for the next week. Teen Camp is located at Main Beach, 300 Lakeshore Dr., Crystal Lake. Drop-off for campers begins at 8:30 am and pick up at 3:30 pm. To make this transition run seamlessly, please line up by the large flower pot near the street light in the parking lot. When you drop off/pick up you will stay in your car. A counselor will come up to you to sign in/out your camper. Please have your QR code ready to scan from your phone (found in EPACT when you click on Family App at the top of the screen). Campers will not be able to attend camp if they are exhibiting any symptoms of illness. Supplies needed for each day are a bathing suit, towel, sunscreen, reusable water bottle, and a peanut free lunch or money to buy one from the concession stand. A completely disposable lunch may be needed on some trips.
