All sunscreen must be clearly marked with your camper’s name and in the original container. Parents should also consider hats, short and/or long sleeve shirts and an extra shirt for swimming for children who are sensitive to the sun. In addition to campers using their own sunscreen, we have a sunscreen station available for campers during afternoon swim. Counselors may apply with parent consent.
