Please review the materials sent to you in the course of the past year. Bring all of them to camp with you, as we will be referring to them during Orientation Week. Certifications If your specialty requires certification for instruction, make sure that your certification is in order and up to date. We can not compromise the quality of care or instruction we provide to the campers. Although CPR certification is not necessary, we urge all staff members to get this certification or at least instruction in the Heimlich Maneuver. Consult your local chapter of the American Red Cross for classes and certification requirements. Be sure to bring a copy of any certification to the camp office.
