Your child’s safety is our highest priority. Our staff training includes emergency procedures, CPR and First Aid. We strive to maintain counselor/camper ratios that far exceed those mandated by the American Camping Association. For children entering first grade, we apply a 1:6 ratio; for children entering second and third grade, we apply a 1:7 ratio, etc. Two certified lifeguards (in addition to counselors) supervise swimming. When on field trips, contact is maintained with the base camp by means of mobile communication.
In case of a medical emergency, G‑d forbid, parents (or guardian) and family doctor (listed on the registration papers) will be contacted immediately.
Dress Code
The wearing of a CGI t-shirt is mandatory on trip days and will be available for purchase prior to the start of camp. We suggest purchasing 2 shirts.

Personal sports equipment such as baseball bats, hockey sticks, sports balls, etc will be stored by the counselor and used under staff supervision.
