MEDICATION AT CAMP
All medication, whether prescription or over the counter, is handled by Loucon’s summer healthcare team. They will be present at Check-in to log medication, store it, and to see that your camper receives the correct amount at the proper intervals. Medication must be in its original container and prescriptions must have the name of the child. Please only send the amount of medication they will need during their camp. You’ll receive a form to fill out prior to camp. Please bring this with you for check-in.
CANTEEN (SNACKS & MERCHANDISE)
There is no need for your camper to bring money to camp. Snacks will be provided daily as a part of the camper fees. Campers will receive a camp t-shirt and some of our younger campers will receive a drawstring bag to help them with their camp experience. Merchandise is for sale on our merch website and may be purchased online and picked up at Loucon or you may pay to have it shipped home. https://loucon.square.site/
