What should parents know?
HEALTH AND SAFETY IS OUR NUMBER ONE PRIORITY
- We strictly adhere to a sign in/sign out system. A signature will be required each time you drop off & pick up your child.
- A permission form will be distributed the first day of camp regarding to who will be permitted to pick up your child, or if they are allowed to leave unaccompanied.
- Counsellors will not apply sunscreen to any camper without prior written consent from a parent.
- In order to make camp a positive experience please include, at the time of registration, details on any special needs, allergies, personal care issues or medical concerns.
- We do not administer medication.
Please review the following safety-oriented rules with your child to ensure camper safety:
- Campers will not be permitted to leave unaccompanied by a staff member.
- We expect that campers will not intentionally harm themselves or others. Bullying and play fighting are not appropriate behaviors for campers.
- The Town of New Tecumseth Parks, Recreation and Culture Department reserves the right to suspend or withdraw a camper from the program.
- All campers and counsellors are expected to clean up after themselves at the end of each activity.
