Health & Safety

Health

Takodah’s commitment to the health and safety of every camper is unsurpassed. Camp should feel like an extension of your home; we care for your child and pay close attention to their well-being.

The best way to ensure that campers have a great summer is by making sure they are healthy. Our staff check in with campers individually each day to make sure they’re drinking lots of water, getting enough to eat, washing their hands, brushing their teeth, taking showers, changing clothes, using bug spray, applying sunscreen, and sleeping enough.

Our modern, well-equipped Health Center has an on-site nurse (registered nurse) and two health center assistants (first responders). In addition to dispensing your child’s medications, these experienced medical professionals provide excellent care to campers while regularly communicating with parents back home.

Safety

You’re entrusting us with the most precious people in your life, and that’s a responsibility we take very seriously. With a camping heritage that goes back 100 years, we’ve found that these are the ingredients to a safe camp experience:

In addition, Takodah is licensed by the State of New Hampshire and accredited by the American Camp Association, meaning that we have undergone a thorough review (300+ standards) of our operation—from staff qualifications to emergency management.
