Campers With Special Needs PDF Print E-mail

Widjiitiwin is not equipped for special needs campers, but also does not want to turn them away. We accept these campers on a case-by-case basis. If a child comes that requires special needs, they are required to bring a helper or friend along with them for their entire stay. Parents pay for both the child and their helper.

My child has special dietary needs. What do you do for that?

All of the meals are Canadian Food Guide approved and are served buffet-style. If the meal choices that are being served do not fit your child's needs, feel free to send along food that can be stored in the appropriate place and please label clearly. Please make sure you inform us in advance.

 
Peanut Allergy PDF Print E-mail
Recognizing that an increasing number of campers have a severe allergy to peanuts and/or nut products and understanding the seriousness of these allergies, we have a great concern for the safety of our campers. Therefore, Camp Widjiitiwin is eliminating the use of these products from use in the kitchen, out trip meals and Tuck Shop products. Further, we will notify incoming campers of our new policy and strongly recommend that they do not bring foods with peanuts to camp. Campers having potentially life threatening conditions such as peanut allergies are required to provide two sets of medication, be familiar with its use and carry the medication in a fanny pack at all times. While we are increasing our sensitivity in this area, we cannot guarantee a nut free environment.
 
Latex Allergy Policy PDF Print E-mail

Due to the potential impact on some individuals, the following policy has been established:

The diversity of the groups that come on our grounds along with the diversity of our operation here makes it virtually impossible to guarantee a 100% latex free environment Muskoka Baptist Conference will operate its food preparation areas without the use of latex gloves.

For all groups including retreats, Camp Widjiitiwin, etc., latex allergies will need to be managed within the regular operations of our facility. We understand the seriousness of this allergy and have a great concern for the safety of our guest: at the same time, we must balance that concern with guest services and the inability to practically police every person who comes on these grounds.
