Q.    Can I visit/call my children while they are at 4-H Camp Kidwell?
A.     
Our policy discourages parents, relatives, or friends from visiting their children while they are at 
            camp.  We feel attending camp is a great opportunity for children to experience independence and 
            grow as individuals.  If family and friends visit during the campers short stay with us this   
            opportunity can be diminished greatly.  We will not prohibited guests from visiting, but want you to 
            know that it is our experience when visitors(especially close relatives) come the likelihood of 
            sadness(homesickness) rises significantly.

Q.    How are medications handled?
A.    
Children's medications are handled by the Camp Nurse.  Our nurse is a medical professional, and they   
          are in charge of holding, recording, and administering medicines.  During the check-in process you will 
          meet with our nurse and discuss any medications and special notices.  The Camp Nurse will follow
          those directions throughout the week.
