  2. Basic Health Check: If you do not have any medications, do not need to speak to a medical staff member, or your camper does not have a dietary restriction, you will choose this station.

At both stations, temperatures are taken, and questions are asked/recorded regarding any COVID-related symptoms, exposure, etc. as well as other health information.

If your camper has a restricted diet, you will stop at the Dietary Restrictions tent to discuss her dietary needs with our Special Diets Coordinator.

Watch our video to help with your decision if you’re undecided on going into camp or dropping your camper off.

Campers will then head to Tent Row with a counselor to meet their own counselor and tentmates, and begin unpacking and setting up their beds and trunk areas for their wonderful stay at Camp Alleghany for Girls!

Once all their tentmates have arrived, they will head to get their Yearbook pictures taken and take a tour of camp.

Campers will be accompanied by a counselor at all of these in-camp check-in stations.
