Important Information Please Read All

I allow my child to participate on field trips and activities to listed below locations while attending Playways Summer Camp. Parents will be notified each day as well as contact information to reach us at any time. Playways Summer Camp will utilize on & off campus locations such as but not limited to:
-Gilford Community Church

Playways Summer Camp has my permission to provide (if needed) first aide treatment to my child and or obtain any emergency care necessary to ensure my child’s well being while in the care of Playways Summer Camp, in which case a parent/guardian will be immediately notified of the later.

It is my responsibility to apply bug spray & sunscreen to my child at home. I give permission for Playways Staff to reapply bug spray & sunscreen if necessary.

I understand that Playways Summer Camp is intended for children who are fully potty-trained and can use the restroom independently as Playways staff members will not be able to assist in restroom unless there is an emergency.

I understand that my child can bring in their swim suit on water play days ONLY if they are able to put on their swim suit by themselves. Staff members will not be able to assist in the process. *(We recommend practicing this at home before camp starts) Children can wear their swimwear under their clothes if this is difficult for them.

I understand it is my responsibility to monitor my child's health daily and keep home if experiencing a fever, persistent hacking cough, diarrhea, vomiting, etc. We ask all children are symptom free for 24 hours before returning to camp. If a child shows symptoms while at camp parents will be contacted and child will be sent home. *Parents will be notified of any potential COVID-19 exposures while attending Playways Summer Camp.
