New Volunteer Immunization Records Needed:
Our primary concern is to ensure that you and our campers have a healthy and fun camp experience. Due to our camper’s compromised immune systems, it is very important that all staff and volunteers are in compliance with our immunization requirements.
Records of the following immunizations are required for the first year of volunteering:
- Hepatitis A: Required for all Kitchen Staff/Volunteers and recommended for all. Kitchen Staff/Volunteers must have a minimum of one dose one month prior to attending camp.
- Hepatitis B: There is small, but real risk of contracting Hep. B if not vaccinated. If you do not receive this vaccine, you must sign the Hepatitis B waiver within the Health History Form.
- Measles, Mumps and Rubella (MMR): Anyone born in 1957 or later is required to provide documentation of two MMR vaccines or have a titer drawn for MMR antibodies. This immunization must be received at least 4 weeks prior to arriving at camp (2 dates of vaccine required).
- Tetanus/Pertussis (Td/TdaP): Must be current and updated within 10 years of last dose.
- Varicella (Chicken Pox): Chicken Pox Illness Date (to be listed in your health history form) OR Two doses of Varicella Vaccine (must receive 8 weeks prior to arriving at camp)
Background Check & Fingerprinting explained:
Due to Colorado childcare licensing & ACA accreditation requirements, our staff and volunteers complete a series of 3 background checks prior to their participation in our program. The background checks consist of:
- A fingerprint-based background check that searches criminal history in the Colorado bureau of Investigation database and the Federal Bureau of Investigation database
- An annual national criminal background check (processed via CheckR; campbackgroundcheck.com for volunteers)
- The CDEC Trails database background check searching specific history of child abuse and neglect
