Morning Extended Day beings at 7:30am and parents can drop off their children any time between 7am and 8:30am. At 8:30am, regular campers are dismissed from the car line or arrive by bus.

At 8:45am, camp begins at Morning Assembly on the flag field where we raise the flag, sign camp songs and start our day together. Then, there are three activity periods before lunch. The entire camp has lunch together in assigned eating areas. After lunch, there are three more activity periods and Afternoon Assembly before camp ends at 4:20. Children are dismissed to their parents in car line or ride the bus home with their camp counselors. From 4:30 to 5:30pm we have Afternoon Extended Day.

We have five lifeguards on staff. Your child’s counselors are at the pool during swim time as watchers and to supervise changing in the pool house. We only have swimming in our 40’ x 70’ pool. On the low end there are steps going into 3’ of water. On Monday of each week of camp, all campers are swim tested by the lifeguards. Children who can demonstrate that they are swimmers are given an orange wristband, which gives them permission to swim beyond the buoys and the 3’ deep water. All non-swimmers are required to play on the steps or in 3’ of water. The camp has swim masks, goggles, kickboards, and noodles for the children to play with. Pool time is play time and is not a structured swim lesson. However, every year many children learn to swim at Camp Woodhaven.

Medical FAQs:

At Camp Woodhaven, there is a nurse on staff to handle any medical issues. This page displays some of the frequently asked questions about your child and their health at camp.

These documents are part of the camper application and registration forms. All children must have these documents on file with the camp health office in order to attend camp. The Board of Health requires that all physicals have a date within 18 months of camp attendance.
 
Any time your child visits the health office for any reason, an email explaining the incident will be sent to the parent. Urgent issues will be relayed by a phone call to a parent.
 
Camp Woodhaven is a nut free campus. There are many children who have severe allergies to peanuts and nuts. Camp Woodhaven does not sell any nut products in the camp Trading Post. It is the camp policy that no peanut butter or nut products are sent to camp with any campers for lunch or snacks. We know this is challenge for some families, but we ask you to make this sacrifice for the betterment of those campers with allergies.
 
As part of the camper’s daily schedule, group staff will take breaks throughout the day for campers to apply sunscreen or bug spray as needed. It is the policy of Camp Woodhaven that staff are not allowed to apply sunscreen to children without the written consent of the parents. If you would like your child’s counselor to apply sunscreen, please check off that box on the online registration form. .
 
In the case of your camper needing earplugs for a medical reason, the health office staff is available for applying them.
 
The camp does not have a camp EpiPen to be used for Anaphylactic emergencies. If a child has a severe allergy or parents are concerned because of a strong family history, parents should send a doctor prescribed EpiPen to camp. All EpiPens in the health office are documented prescriptions for specific children. An EPI action plan from your child's doctor is also requested with the prescription EpiPen.
 
Medications can be administered by the health office staff only if they are sent in the original container and with a note of signed consent from the parent. All medications in the health office are kept under lock and key.
