Day camps only
All camps are day camps. The College does not operate housing and does not conduct overnight camps.
Arrival and dismissal
Participants are signed in and signed out by a parent, guardian, or adult named on the registration form. A participant is not released to any other person. The College does not transport participants. Bowling participants are brought to and collected from Pike Lanes.
Supervision
Camps are conducted under Policy 6.55, Minors on Campus. Supervision ratios are those of the policy. Camp staff with direct, unsupervised responsibility for minors complete a BCI and FBI criminal records check before assignment. A participant is not left alone with a single staff member.
Health information
The registration form includes emergency contacts, medical information, and medications. A parent or guardian receives and signs the Ohio Department of Health concussion and sudden cardiac arrest information sheets before the first day. A participant who shows signs of a concussion is removed from activity for the day and does not return without written clearance. Participants bring a water bottle; snacks and lunch are not provided.
Registration
Forms are available from the Department of Athletics, ext. 2200, beginning in March. Fees are refunded in full if the College cancels a camp, and otherwise in full on a request received at least seven days before the first day.
Reporting
All College employees report suspected child abuse or neglect to Tolliver County Children Services and to law enforcement, directly and immediately. See Report a Concern.
The Junior Naturalist day camp is operated with OSU Extension and is described at Youth and School Programs.
