Packing

Read our Medication Guide

Packing meds can bring up a lot of questions, and there are some important state and local regulations we need to follow. We put all the info together into a handy-dandy guide to tell you everything you need to know, including prescription guidelines, leaving OTC meds at home, when meds are given out, and more.

Read the Guide

Medication

How to Pack Meds

Packing meds can bring up a lot of questions. Find even more answers in our in-depth guide to medication.

All Meds to Nurse

State law mandates that all medication (prescription and OTC) is kept in the health center, so please do not pack meds in suitcases or trunks.

Original Containers

All prescription medications must be in their original containers with current dosage instructions.

Up-to-Date

All medication must be prescribed to the camper. Check the expiration date – all meds must be current!

Leave OTC meds & vitamins home

Save the space! We stock plenty of over-the-counter meds for occasional as needed use. If your camper takes a daily allergy med, please check it in at drop-off.

Want the rest of your pre-camp information?

We've got a full webpage chock full of all the details you want (and need) to know before you get to camp.
