- To receive updates via text, OPT INTO TEXT MESSAGING by going to your CampSite profile and selecting “Opt into text message notifications” in the My Account tab.

Health & Safety
Like Hermes guarding the traveler’s path, we must prioritize your health and safety before the adventure begins.
Health Form
- All campers in NY and NJ must have a Health Examination Form on file BEFORE THE START OF CAMP. Health forms completed in the last 12 months for school and/or extracurriculars may be submitted.
- You can access this form (and all other forms) via the CampSite Parent Dashboard. After logging in, select the Forms tab to view all outstanding forms.
Medication and Allergies
- If your camper takes a daily medication or has an allergy, please be sure to include this information on their Summer Registration Information Form via CampSite.
- All medications must be logged with the Camp Director at the start of each day. Emergency medications (rescue inhalers, Epi-Pens, etc.) will remain with your camper.
