Accreditation: The Mark twain District Twilight Camp undergoes one or more safety inspections prior to and during operation.  All Connecticut Rivers Camps are inspected for National Accreditation by the Boy Scouts of America.

 

Insurance: Connecticut Rivers Council maintains an insurance policy which will cover all Scouts while at camp.  This policy is a second coverage to your primary insurance.  To summarize, if you Scout is injured at camp, your personal insurance becomes primary for coverage with the camp insurance as a secondary policy.  If no other insurance is available, the council’s policy will apply.

Medications: The State Department of Public Health requires that “Authorization for the Administration of Medications” be completed for all campers who receive medications (Including over-the-counter medications) at camp.  This section of the health form must be signed by a physician and a parent or guardian.  Only camps with a licensed nurse or physician are able to administer medications.  Not all camps have health officers qualified to administer medications.   Please check with your camp director.
