Dear Camper and Parents/Guardians,
Hello from Camp BASIC. Camp BASIC 2012 looks like it will be an exciting week – we hope you can join us for the fun and fellowship.
The dates for Camp BASIC 2012 are:
You have your choice of which week you would like, on a first come, first serve basis, so get your Camper Regisered early! Returning Camper Registration Dates are from January 15, 2012 - March 15, 2012. New Camper Registration Dates are from March 16, 2012 - April 15, 2012. If you wish to use the paper registration forms that were mailed to you or that you downloaded from our site, returning campers please have your Camper Registration Packet returned to Camp BASIC by March 15, 2012. New Campers please have your Registration Packet returned to Camp BASIC by April 15, 2012.
Please keep in mind that Camp BASIC is staffed with volunteers and designed for persons with a moderate developmental disability, who are ambulatory and 10 years of age or older.
The fee for this year will be $200.00. Everyone is responsible for a $100.00 deposit fee. The balance of the fee is due on the first day of Camp, unless there has been a request for a scholarship. Scholarship funds are available for the remaining $100.00 for those who may need them. A scholarship request must accompany the paper registration form. There is a place on the online form to make your request.
If you register online, you must be ready to make the $100 deposit using your credit card, debit card, or your PayPal account. Once you complete filling out the registration form, you will be directed to the PayPal web site to make that deposit. You do not need to have a PayPal account set up in order to use PayPal. They will allow you to use a credit/debit card without registering. It is safe and secure, so you do not need to worry about someone getting your information. All online camper registrations need to pay online in order to register. If you do not wish to pay online, just print off a paper copy of the registration form and mail it to us with your check.
Every blank on our paper and online registration forms must be filled in. If the information is not applicable to the camper, write N/A in the space provided. We would encourage you to attach any extra information you feel may assist us in providing the best care possible. You can e-mail this informaiton to the appropriate director or to Sara Snyder. Their addresses are listed on the botom of this page. Sending a photograph of your camper is encouraged, but optional. CAMPERS MUST HAVE COMPLETED FORMS IN ORDER TO ATTEND CAMP. No exceptions will be made.Camp BASIC reserves the right not to accept any camper if the camp staff feels they will not be able to satisfactorily meet the camper’s needs.
Medical and Medication Information
Please download our Medication Information Form. Fill it out and bring it with you to camp. The Medication Information Form must be filled out completely. Please be aware that Camp BASIC does not have trained medical professionals on staff. In the absence of a licensed nurse, Camp Directors will pass out medications and PRNs. For this reason it is very important that all medical information is complete and instructions for any medications are clear. If a significant medication change, health condition or surgery occurs in the month prior to Camp, please call the Director prior to Camp to discuss how the change may impact the camper’s experience at Camp.
Medications should be brought to camp in properly labeled packages to speed along the process of checking them in. Bubble packs are preferred, but you may also put meds in small, brown envelopes as long as the camper’s name, the name(s) of the med(s), the dose(s), and when the med is taken is clearly indicated. We do not have room to check-in meds in their original bottles – please do not bring them. Be advised that Camp staff cannot give out unidentified medication.
If the camper requires menstrual pads, Depends or if the camper is diabetic or for any other reason needs between meal snacks (campers receive 3 generous meals a day), please provide an adequate supply, labeled with their name, for the time they will be at Camp.
If the camper requires a wheel chair, please bring a wheel chair with the camper to camp.
In an Emergency
In the event of medical emergencies or an illness, the Camper will be taken to Prairie du Chien Memorial Hospital. Some members of Camp staff will be certified in Basic First Aid and CPR.
