It needs to be fully filled out, the camper needs to have a physical, ALL medication/supplements MUST be listed on the health form, and the health form must have a signature from a physician.

In accordance with the Colorado Department of Public Health, camper health forms and immunization forms are required to be received by the camp two weeks prior to that campers camp week.

All medications/supplements to be taken by your child at camp MUST be listed by name and include the dose, the route, and the time to be taken (E.g. Tylenol 160mg/5ml PO once daily at breakfast). The doctor must sign this list EVERY year. *Over-the counter medications/supplements must be in their original container and be on the signed list of medications/supplements in order for the camp to administer them. *Prescription medication must be in the ORIGINAL box or bottle/container from a licensed pharmacy, and include the pharmacy’s label with the camper’s name, directions for use, and the name of the prescribing practitioner.

Over-the counter medications/supplements must be in their original container and be on the signed list of medications/supplements in order for the camp to administer them.

Prescription medication must be in the ORIGINAL box or bottle/container from a licensed pharmacy, and include the pharmacy’s label with the camper’s name, directions for use, and the name of the prescribing practitioner.

This includes inhalers and epinephrine devices (Epi-Pens)

If you have two Epi-Pens and do not want to lose the second one, remove one from the box and send one to camp in the original box from the pharmacy. You can also ask the pharmacy to put labels on the box as well as each Epi-Pens device when picking up the original prescription.

The same goes for inhalers: pharmacies can label the box as well as the device at the time of filling the prescription.

Campers may self-carry their inhalers and Epi-Pens IF the physician has signed for him/her to do so, and if the parent has signed the same. Don’t forget to have these listed on the med list. (Hint: you both need to check-mark a box: “may/may not self-carry…” on the medication statements.)

We understand that plans change, therefore Twin Peaks Bible Camp offers a refund policy for cancellations made up to two weeks before the camp date. The refund will include store money deposited into that camper’s account and the camp fee minus a $50 administration fee. Twin Peaks Bible Camp will not offer a refund within 2 weeks of the camp date.

There is a lot of work and planning that goes into our summer camps. There are also costs associated with registration and payments. The $50 that is not refunded helps Twin Peaks Bible Camp to cover some of those costs when a camper isn’t able to attend camp, because we have those costs regardless of if your camper attends or not. Thank you for understanding.

Check-in is on the Monday of your week of camp from 1:30-3:00pm (unless otherwise advertised).

Upon arrival, you will not park. Instead you will be directed to the vehicle line. Your family will stay in the vehicle as you drive through our check-in process. Once you have completed our drive through check-in, you will be directed to park so that you can help your camper to their cabin with their belongings.

Many parents are concerned about their first-time campers getting homesick. Our Camp Nurse is trained to help campers who may have a natural tendency to feel homesick. If a child is showing signs of homesickness for more than 24 hours, parents will be contacted to create an action plan which may include the child going home. Here are things you can do to help before they come:

• Have your child spend a night or two away from home to prepare for his or her first camp experience.
• Practice doing daily routines independently with younger campers like dressing, self-care, showering and applying sunscreen.
• Send a special stuffed animal along.
• Tell them how proud you are of them.
• Make sure to have letters and a care package for them throughout the week.
• Have your child sign-up and bunk with a close friend.
• Stay positive! Children often sense other’s insecurities.

Care packages and letters from home may be sent to:

*Camper’s Name*
C/O Twin Peaks Bible Camp
PO Box 59
Collbran, CO 81624

This address is only for the week(s) of camp. DO NOT send registration/ health forms to this address!

Please do not send snacks or extra money in letters/packages as campers are not allowed to have them in their cabins. Letters should be mailed out no later than Wednesday for your camper to receive them.

While registering for camp there is a place on the registration form to indicate who your child would like to be a cabin buddy with. We do our best to assign your child to a cabin that has someone they know. Please understand that if your child has more than one friend at camp we cannot guarantee that they will all be placed together. But please don’t worry! There are many opportunities for friends to socialize outside of their cabin groups.
