Heat

If the heat temperature is in the range of 90˚and 95˚F, participants will be highly monitored with shorter activity sessions outside. If the temperature range is higher than 95˚F, the option to remain indoors will become a priority due to safety concerns. A hat is recommended to be worn when outside during high temperatures. Camp counselors will monitor time spent outside.

Sunscreen

Any use of sunscreen requires written parent authorization on the Parent/Guardian Authorization, Waiver, and Consent for Over-the-Counter Medication Form

 

Please take the time to apply sunscreen and teach camper how to use it before the camp day. Staff can apply sunscreen with the consent of the parent/guardian, but will only administer spray (no-rub) sunscreen.

 

Sunscreen must be in the original container labeled with the child's name.

Hydration

A refillable water bottle with your campers name clearly visible, is recommended for each day of Camp Colvin. There will be hydration stations and breaks built into each activity. It is important that campers not only hydrate during camp but also the nights prior to camp to allow for adequate hydration.
