Please apply sunscreen/ bug repellent to your children prior to camp start each morning. Staff will not be responsible to apply.
Please pack extra dry clothes as well as a bathing suit and towel daily for creek play (located behind the shelter). Campers will enjoy an hour at the creek each afternoon. IF YOUR CHILD DOES NOT HAVE A CHANGE OF SWIM CLOTHES/SANDALS/ TOWEL FOR THE CREEK, THEY WILL NOT BE PERMITTED TO GO IN. There will be alternative activities to enjoy.
Please make sure your child has a big water bottle/ lunch/ snack packed each day. Lunches will not be refrigerated.
Friday will be an all-campers COOKOUT. Smith's Hotdogs kindly donated hot dogs for our campers to enjoy! EHS will provide a juice box and a bag of chips for our cookout! You are welcome to pack an additional lunch for your child, if desired.
Face Painting by Connie will be on site on WEDNESDAY! Campers can choose face painting, tattoos, feathers for an additional fee (prices range from $5-$20). Parents must send in money labeled in an envelope with their child's first and last name if they choose to participate.

Campers can stop in our Candy Shop and buy a few pieces of candy to fuel that sweet tooth DAILY. If you choose to have your child participate in the candy shop, please send in money with your child daily in an envelope labeled with their first and last name daily. Candy will be either 2 pieces/$1 or 3 pieces/$1. We encourage single dollar bills to make the candy shop a smooth process.
