All prescription medications and over-the-counter medications must arrive at camp in their original packaging, with labels intact, and stored in one or more Ziploc bags. Put all prescription bottles in a sealed bag and write the camper’s name in permanent ink on the bag.

Prescription medication can be packetized at your pharmacy by request and is strongly preferred by our nurses. This also increases safety because each dose is dispensed, sealed, and labeled for your camper.

While some over-the-counter medications are permitted, most vitamins and supplements are not appropriate to send to camp and can diminish the nurses’ capacity to administer medically necessary prescriptions to other campers on time.
