Please list your child's allergies, and symptoms below:

If your child has an anaphylactic allergy, do they carry an Epi-pen?

PLEASE NOTE: The camp staff will monitor but cannot administer medication. We can store the medication in a designated area and remind your child to take it according to the written instructions. Staff are not responsible for "missed doses" but will do their best to avoid this situation.

Medication (including Epi-pens) must be submitted to the Camp Leader in the original container, with the Child's Name on it.

Anaphylaxis management and the use of epinephrine auto-injections (Epi-pen or Twinject) is a shared responsibility. Practicing emergency drills with your child results in effective emergency response in case of a reaction.

Campers must be mindful of their allergies. Campers should:

Carry at least one epinephrine auto-injector, as age appropriate
Wear medical identification (Medic Alert Bracelet)
Inform staff if he/she suspects a reaction is happening
Ensure that asthma is well controlled and managed coming into the environment (indoor/outdoor play)

In case of a camper experiencing a severe, potentially life threatening allergic reaction, staff will administer the epinephrine auto-injector and call 911. For EMS needs, please complete the following:
