It's the second year for Unicorp's kinda-new-ish Junior Counselor Program! What is it?
During your week, it’s very likely that a UniCorps camper will be placed in your cabin and/or rotation as a “junior counselor.” The UniCorps campers will learn leadership skills with their advisors and will spend progressively more time with other units/activities as the week progresses, leading up to a full day with a unit towards the end of the week.
What are our policies in regards to prescription meds and non-prescription drugs/alcohol at camp?
drugs & alcohol are prohibited at camp. campers have a chance to surrender on day 1, after that day there is a call home possibly sent home.
For meds, all meds should be handled by camp medic, except emergency meds (inhaler, epipen, glucose, etc)
