Important Policies
Registration
Parents should complete the registration card along with $75 deposit per child, per week (non-refundable). Submit your registration online or mail or bring to the Camp Fire Office. Deposit amount will be deducted from camp fee. Office is open from 8:00am to 12:00 noon. The balance of camp fees is due at least 2 weeks before your camper is to arrive at camp. No checks will be accepted at camp, and reserved spots may be forfeited to campers on the waiting list if payment is not received at least two weeks in advance. No refunds will be made once the child reaches camp except in case of illness, when the child is sent home at the request of the camp nurse or camp director.
Refund Policy
The deposit is non-refundable. Absolutely no refunds will be made once a child reaches camp except when a child is sent home at the request of the Camp Nurse or Camp Director. Refunds will be sent after the completion of the summer camp season (approximately September 15th).
Cancellation Policy
If your child is unable to attend camp for the week registered, please notify the Camp Fire office in South Bend at least one week in advance so we may give another child a chance to attend camp. No refunds will be made if cancellation is less than one week in advance. The $75 deposit is not refundable.
Check In and Check Out
Arrival Time: Check-in time for full-week sessions is on Sunday from 3:00pm to 4:00pm (EDT). Please note that this is a change from previous years! You and your camper will check in at the registration table, where you will receive a cabin assignment and verify registration of any special activities. You and your child can then go to his/her assigned cabin, see the facilities, go to the Camp Store to pick up a camp t-shirt, make a store deposit, and meet the camp staff. During this check-in time, you are welcome to view the lake, but no lifeguards will be on duty and therefore no one is allowed on the pier or in the water. If a camper must check in early or late, please contact me in advance to make arrangements.
Departure Time: Check-out time for full-week sessions is on Saturday from 10:00am to 11:00am (EDT). Again, please note the change in check-out time from previous years. These times are strictly observed. Campers not checked out by 11:00am will be charged $10 per hour to pay camp staff to remain at camp with the camper. If a camper needs to be picked up early, please contact me in advance to make arrangements. During check-out the campers will be at an activity, so parents must come to the check-out desk where we will direct you to your camper’s location.
Mini Week: Check-in is Sunday, June 29th from 3:00pm to 4:00pm (EDT).
Check-out is Wednesday, July 2nd from 10:00am to 11:00am (EDT)
Super Week: Check-in is Sunday, June 22nd from 3:00pm to 4:00pm (EDT)
Check-out is Wednesday, July 2nd from 10:00am to 11:00am (EDT)
Counselor in Training (CIT): The CIT session is two weeks long; however, the CIT campers are required to go home over the weekend between the two sessions. Weekend stays are not permitted unless special permission has been granted (please contact me if arrangements must be made).
Forms Packet: All forms (health form and permission slips) are to be turned in during check-in. Please note that this is a change from the 2007 policy. Please do not send forms to the Camp Fire office; bring them with you when you arrive at camp. If your child has special needs (including diet) that we need to be aware of, please contact me in advance.
Medical Records and Medications: The American Camping Association (ACA) requires a Health Information form to be completed and signed by a parent or guardian. This form must also show evidence of a health examination by a licensed physician has been completed no more than 24 months prior to camp attendance. This form is crucial and must be filled out completely. The health form is kept on file in accordance with regulations of the State of Michigan. All immunizations must be up-to-date, especially tetanus. The attached health form (in PDF format) is editable, but if you do not have the full version of Adobe Acrobat, you will not be able to save your edits. All forms must be printed out and signed.
Upon arrival at camp, all campers must visit the camp health officer. All campers who need to take medications (over the counter or prescription) must give all medications to the camp health officer in the Infirmary.
