Camp Policies and Information

Thank you for registering for the Summer Youth Program. We look forward to seeing this summer! If you have any questions, please call us at 724-773-3700 or email at [email protected].

Important COVID-19 Information

Due to COVID-19, all campers and parents will be required to wear a mask and maintain a social distance of 6 feet at all times, indoors and outdoors, while on Penn State Beaver property. This policy applies to vaccinated individuals as well.

Camp Cancellations

The University reserves the right to cancel any camp due to insufficient enrollment or for other unforeseen circumstances. If a camp is cancelled, registrants will be notified immediately, and registration fee refunds will be processed. Please note that the University cannot be held responsible for any other costs, charges, or expenses.

Cancellations and Refunds

Refunds will be made only if a written cancellation is received at least seven business days prior to the first day of the camp. After that, the participant or organization will be held responsible for the fee. To cancel a registration, email [email protected]. 

Access

Penn State encourages individuals with disabilities to participate in its programs and activities. If you antici¬pate needing special accommodations or have questions about the physical access provided, please contact the Office of Continuing Education at 724-773-3700 prior to the start of camp.

TSS Workers

Please notify our office at 724-773-3700 immediately if a TSS worker will be accompanying your child.

Background Checks and Training

All Penn State youth programs have policies in place to ensure the safety of youth participating in our programs is not compromised. All Penn State Summer Youth instructors/aides/volunteers are required to have a current Pennsylvania State Police background check, Federal (FBI) Fingerprint Criminal Background Check, Pennsylvania Child Abuse History Clearance, and go through training on an annual basis about their responsibilities including safety and security procedures. For more information, view the Information for Parents web page.

Medication

Penn State program officials will not dispense over-the-counter or prescription medications to campers. Participants will be allowed to possess and take medications on their own if permission is granted in writing by a parent or guardian. Medications must be in their original containers. 

First Aid and Medical Emergencies

Penn State personnel and/or instructors may only wash cuts, apply non-latex band-aids and apply ice packs. Parents will be contacted if any injury requires medical attention. If any medical emergencies arise, the instructor will call 911.

Emergency Alerts

PSUAlert is Penn State's official emergency alerts system. Parents/guardians may sign up for emergency alerts via cell phone and/or email at PSUAlert. Alerts are also posted via our Facebook and Twitter accounts.

Tobacco Policy

Please be aware that Penn State’s Tobacco Policy prohibits smoking and the use of all other tobacco products on all Penn State campuses, except in personal vehicles.

Confidentiality

For safety reasons, the University cannot release the names and/or phone numbers of other participants, even to those who wish to carpool.

Drop-Off and Pick-Up

Due to COVID-19, there will be a one-parent/one-child protocol for drop-off and pick-up. You will receive a registration confirmation email prior to the start of camp containing specific information regarding drop-off, pick-up, pre-screening and safety protocols.

Daily Check-Out: Children will ONLY be dismissed by the instructors/program aides. This is a very busy time. For security reasons, please make sure you notify the instructor that you are taking your child. Campers will only be released to those individuals who are listed on the drop off/pick up information that was entered upon registration.

Lunch and Snacks

Students enrolled in a full-day camp should bring a packed lunch. Please note that we do not have the capability to heat or refrigerate lunches. All lunch periods are supervised by Penn State staff.

Snacks and beverages are not provided. However, campers are welcome to bring their own snacks and/or beverages, which may be eaten during breaks scheduled by the instructors.

Cellphones and Cameras

We respect our campers’ right to privacy. Some parents do not give us permission to take photos of their child/children while at camp. Selfies and inappropriate use of cameras, imaging, and digital devices is prohibited while attending camp, including during lunch and break periods.

Cell phones may not be used during camp or special sessions. If a parent needs to contact their child during camp for any reason, they may contact our office at 724-773-3700 or [email protected].

Illness

Please call 724-773-3700 or [email protected] if your child is not able to attend camp due to illness or any other circumstance.
