We strive to make Banbury Kids Camp one of the safest. Please help in our effort to keep the kids healthy and out of harms way. Take a moment to read over this page so that your child and others will have a great time at camp.

PEANUT ALLERGIES

Peanut and tree-nut products can cause allergic reactions in some campers. In the case where the camper is anaphylactic, the condition is LIFE-THREATENING. A number of the children at Banbury Kids Camp have this life-threatening allergy to peanuts, peanut oils or certain food additives.

In order to ensure a safe environment for these children, we request that you do not send any products containing NUTS, PEANUTS AND PEANUT OILS. Please read all labels for ingredient listings (i.e. Miss Vicky Potatoe Chips contain peanut oil). Please note, some sunscreens contain coconut oil or nut oil substitutes. Please check these labels as well since some campers are fatally allergic to nut oils and can be affected by airborne particles.

Please support us in our attempt to provide the safest measures for all children.

Help us to make this a PEANUT-FREE CAMP!!!!!

HEAD LICE

Based on the phenomenon of head lice at schools, youth sports programs or any other setting where children congregate, parents should not be shocked to hear that the pesky problem shows up at summer camps as well.

· Starting two weeks before camp, do a head lice examination of your child.
· If you find lice, treat it immediately and appropriately.
· Check again every day or so, and treat it again at least two days before camp.

Similar to schools that do not permit students to return to class if they have lice, we will reserve the right to send campers home if they have lice when they arrive at camp.

SUNSAFE - SUNSMART

At Banbury Kids Camp we encourage the campers and their parents to be SUNSMART. Sun hats are a must every day. It is the parent's responsibility to apply sunscreen prior to departure for camp each morning. An extra bottle of sunscreen (labeled) should be left in your child's knapsack to be reapplied when necessary.
