Student Health and Safety
Our students’ health and safety is our number one priority throughout all camp rehearsals. It can be VERY HOT during the final weeks of July, therefore, students must prepare themselves to withstand the heat and humidity during camp. Students MUST eat breakfast and drink plenty of water (NO SODA). We will give frequent hydration breaks, shade breaks, and rehearsal will rotate from outdoors to indoors throughout the day. Parent volunteers will be present as an extra set of eyes to ensure that all students are taken care of. If a student has any specific medical needs, please notify Mr. Youngman before camp.
