Extended
Day Program
For
those wishing to add to their camp day, we have an optional program
in the morning and afternoon. The morning session operates from
7:30 a.m. until the start of camp at 9:00 a.m. and the afternoon
session operates from the close of camp at 4:00 p.m. until 5:00
p.m.. Separate registration and a fee of $25 per week for the
morning program and/or $20 per week for the afternoon program are
required. Late pick-ups after 5:00 p.m. will be charged $25 per
hour for staff overtime.
Dress
Play
clothes and sturdy closed toe shoes. Programs are held rain or
shine, so bring raincoats if rain is possible. Indian Rock is
always cooler than lower areas. Long pants are recommended.
Lunch
Campers must provide their own lunch and afternoon snack in a
labeled paper or plastic bag. NO insulated containers are
accepted. Lunch refrigeration is required and to be effective
containers must not be insulated. Drinks and ice cream are
available for purchase ranging from 50 cents to $2.50.
Swimming
Swimming is provided at one of our lake’s two waterfronts,
conditions permitting. Swimming and wading are supervised by a
certified lifeguard. Campers should bring a swimsuit and towel
daily.
Health and
Safety
The
camp, licensed by the State of Connecticut Department of Health
Services, has an excellent safety record. A First Aid Staff member
is present all day to handle minor injuries and coordinate major
injury with the proper health professionals. Camp physicals are
required and our physical examination form must be completed
and returned prior to the start of camp. The physical examination
must have taken place in the past 3 years. Campers without a
current physical form on file are not permitted to attend camp by
state law. If any medication needs to be administered during
camp hours, the Authorization for the Administration of
Medications Form, located on the reverse side of our physical
form, must be completed. Medications must be in pharmacy
prepared containers and labeled with the name of the child, name of
the drug, strength, dosage, frequency, authorized prescriber’s name
and date of original prescription. Over the counter medication
must be in the original container and labeled with the child’s
name. Parents must check medication in at the office and provide
the above named form. Parents must also sign our medication log
to confirm the amount of medication we received. By state law,
we cannot except any medication without the above named documents.
No camper is allowed to posses any medication on their
person including over the counter drugs such as insect repellant
and suntan lotion. Such labeled items will be collected and
carried by the camper’s counselor and given as needed.
