CAMP INJURIES- 7 Things You Must Know
WHEN AN INJURY HAPPENS AT CAMP, HERE'S WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW: The call you never want to hear is made to your home' "Your son was injured in the dining room'he fell through a window'" Where do you turn? What do you do? Here's a checklist of what you need to do immediately: 1. Find out exactly where your child is now. Make sure he or she is receiving the appropriate emergency medical care. This is no time for accusations or recriminations'that's for later. DO NOT YELL, KICK OR SCREAM AT THE JUNIOR COUNSELLORS who may have been involved in your child's injury. This will get you nowhere. They will become defensive as they are young and inexperienced, and most often do not yet know how to accept responsibility for bad outcomes while on their watch. 2. Find out what happened from the Head Counsellor, not the junior counselor who should have been watching the child's. Make notes of your conversation with whomever you speak to. 3. Demand that this incident be investigated immediately, and that an incident report and witness statements be obtained right away. 4. Demand that you receive a call back later that day from the head of the camp or the Head Counsellor with all the details of the incident. 5. If your child is at sleep-away camp, find out if your child is being admitted to a hospital; if so, make arrangements to get there as soon as possible. Ask for the name of the specialist who will treat him. 6. Make sure you keep all medical and hospital bills. In many cases, depending on the facts, you will be submitting them to the camp later for reimbursement. 7. Once your child's health is stabilized, then start to focus on why this accident happened; why the counselors were not paying attention; why the kids were permitted to horse around; why there was loose glass in the dining area; and importantly, could this have been prevented' As parents we know that accidents do happen. However, there are many times where the accident was foreseeable and steps should have been taken to prevent these accidents from happening. We send our children to camp to have an enjoyable, safe, friendly environment where their memories will last a lifetime. We don't want them to have nightmares about something that should never have happened. When an accident happens, you need to ask lots of questions. Then you need to speak to an attorney with experience handling accident cases in order to protect your child's rights.

Do you cringe at the sight inexpensive trinkets and novelty items that will be lost or broken in the span of hours? Plan your souvenir strategy early and help your child assemble a collection that is unique and will last for years to come, preserving the memories of your travels together. First, come up with a theme. What type of souvenir is fairly common at most tourist locations and has the makings for a great collection? If you set your child on a treasure hunt for specific souvenirs with some sort of common ground, they will be able to tell a story or make an easily displayed collection. We've collected embroidered patches from the places we've visited with our child and sewn them onto a backpack he takes along on trips, adapting the idea from old suitcases with stickers from exotic locations. Here are some more ideas for starting your child's souvenir collection: Postcards. Have your child write himself a note and mail it back home. You can assemble it like a diary when you return from your travels. Key Chains. They can be collected and put on backpacks or hung on a strip hanging from the wall. Magnets. You can put them on the refrigerator at home or make a magnetic board to display the collection in your child's bedroom. Snowglobes or Music Boxes featuring scenes from your travel location. Crazy sunglasses or hats. They could be relevant to your travel destination or just wacky. Holiday ornaments. Each holiday, you can recount stories about travels with your children and have a great starter set of special ornaments when your child is grown so he can share his travel memories with his children.
