Health & Safety

We have a Medical Professional on site and a Pediatrician on call 24 hours a day in a well equipped facility. We hope that your camper will never need to experience our clinic, but if they need us we are here to help them get back on their feet! We are committed to calling you if there is ever an issue that affects your child’s camp experience. This would include the following circumstances:

  • If your camper needs to spend the night in the clinic.
  • If your camper needs prescription medication.
  • If your camper needs to visit a doctor in town, get x-rays, or lab work.
  • If your camper’s schedule must be changed due to an illness or injury.

Health Forms

Please be sure that we have your camper's health form on file by May 1st. Do not delay. Lost health forms can be downloaded here [PDF]. If there are changes to your daughters health condition after your form has been sent in, just contact the office and we will update her records.

Medical Care

Should an accident or illness be untreatable at camp, we have arrangements for professional service in Marble Falls.  Every effort will be made to contact parents before treatment is administered.

Medications

Campers are not permitted to keep any medications in their cabins. There is no need to bring over the counter medications as we keep such items in the health hut. Medications brought to camp (including over-the-counter medications if you choose to bring them) will be stored and administered by a nurse. The number of prescription drugs campers are bringing to camp is increasing.  Please try to limit these to no more than two per child.  If your child can make it a week without a prescribed drug, please leave it at home. Please give all medications to the medical professional upon arrival at camp. If your child needs to keep emergency items with her (for example for bee stings or asthma) please come by the clinic and speak to the nurse.

Calling The Clinic

Should you ever have any questions regarding the state of your child's health, feel free to call us directly in the clinic. We maintain detailed records of any visits and will always be able to answer any questions.

The clinic can be reached through the main office at 830.693.2182.
