We are EXCITED to spend a week at Sky River Day Camp with your camper. You should have received an email with an attached confirmation letter and a large letter to print out and place in your window for drop off and pick.
Please plan to arrive by 9:15 in the morning (do not arrive before 9:00). For pick up arrive before 4:00 in the afternoon. The first day usually takes the longest, however it does get better! Please be patient with us as we do our best to get everyone in and out safely and efficiently. You must stay in your vehicles. It is a common misconception that arriving a few minutes late helps the traffic. Unfortunately late arrivals actually cause us to stop traffic in order to clear out the one way portions of the driveway. This causes delays for everyone. Please be sure to arrive at the designated times. We can't stress enough the importance of carpooling to and from camp. Less vehicles means we can get kids in and out of cars more efficiently. It is very important that you have anyone who might pick up your camper listed on her pick up list. We only release campers to people who are listed on her form. We also check ID of anyone we do not know. If you want to add drivers to your daughter's list please send us an email of the people to add at [email protected] Please bring a "letter" for each Unit you will have in your car. Once we have transferred your camper to or from your car remove the corresponding letter so we will know you are ready to go. Medication at Camp Girl Scouts of Western Washington is not mandated by law to require that its volunteers administer medications to girl members. Taking over-the-counter or prescribed medication is the responsibility of the girl needing the medication and her parents. Girl Scouts of Western Washington strives to be inclusive and to make its programming available to the broadest range of girls possible, and so will allow volunteers to accept the responsibility of administering medications. Please read the information provided at the links below regarding our policy and permissions needed. At Sky River Day Camp we encourage parents to give medication before or after camp if at all possible. If your camper needs medication during camp you must have the forms below completed and turned in to Ooke (our camp nurse) before medication can be given. All medication must be in its original container, must have current dates, and must have your camper's name on. We do not provide any over the counter medications (although the Girl Scout forms may indicate otherwise). All prescription medications require a separate form that must be signed by your medical provider. Links to all of the forms are below. Medication and appropriate forms should be brought to camp and given directly to Ooke. If you have meds and forms to drop off let a volunteer know during drop off and they will send Ooke to you. Girl Scout Policy on Medication Parental Permission for Prescriptions and Over the Counter Medications Medical Provider Form for PrescriptionsPacking List The Girl Scout Motto is “Be Prepared”. In order to have the best camp experience possible please be sure your camper is prepared every day.

Please be sure your camper or PA is not bringing any to camp. Any electronics brought to camp will be confiscated. They may be picked up after camp by a parent between 5:00-5:30.
