We will be on the look out to take the best care of your sons, but it won\u2019t hurt to review this list with them before they leave!<\/p>\n

10. Homesickness \u2013 It is real.\u00a0 So if your camper is talking about not feeling well, also encourage them to focus on feeling happy.\u00a0 Know that they might be feeling sick but they also might feel H.A.L.T.D (Hungry, Angry, Lonely, Tired, Dehydrated).\u00a0 Ask them to share their concerns but also ask if we can address H.A.L.T.D.<\/p>\n

9. Hand washing \u2013 In the last 100 years, this might be the most radical change in health.\u00a0 The amount of bacteria that lurks around campers and activities is high.\u00a0 We can\u2019t really do much about it but we can wash it away!\u00a0 Encourage your camper to wash after using the bathroom and before eating.\u00a0 If they shower on a regular basis (which they do at camp), that helps too!<\/p>\n

8.\u00a0 Bugs \u2013 Bugs bite. But how we respond to them is important.\u00a0 Encourage the camper to not scratch them and turn annoying bites into infected wounds.<\/p>\n

7. Ticks \u2013 Show your camper what a tick looks like and the importance of self-checks.\u00a0 Let\u2019s not get involved with Lyme Disease.<\/p>\n

6. Wear the right clothing \u2013\u00a0When hiking, wear long pants and know what poison oak and poison ivy look like.<\/p>\n

5. Eat well \u2013 Campers are encouraged to make healthy choices.\u00a0 Fruits and vegetables are available at every meal.\u00a0 Encourage them to make good choices and to recognize how too much sugar and caffeine might make them feel.<\/p>\n

4. Drink water \u2013 Send them with a water bottle and beg them to drink water.\u00a0 Water will help them feel great and enjoy all of those activities they came to do!<\/p>\n

3. Actually drink water!! <\/strong>This is very important!<\/p>\n

2. Sleep \u2013 The best way to make the most of camp and take part in all of the activities is to rest the right amount.<\/p>\n

1. Encourage campers to talk to their counselor if they do not feel well. \u00a0\u00a0There is nothing wrong with not feeling well and it is bound to happen over the course of the summer.\u00a0 Keeping counselors in the know is the most proactive way to stay healthy throughout the summer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
