Camper Medication at Arrival
You can locate your church’s Medication Administration Record (MAR) from your Online Account. This is a list of medications you should expect to collect. Please collect ALL medications, vitamins and supplements, except epi-pens, rescue inhalers & diabetic supplies. (Don’t worry if it’s not listed on the MAR, we can add it at camp!) All medication needs to be in its original container & in a Ziploc bag. Write your church name & each student’s name in Sharpie on the bag. You’ll turn medications into our health center staff at check-in when you arrive, so please collect medications before campers load up into vehicles.
Camper Medication at Departure
Your group’s medications will need to be picked up by a group admin at the medication station at breakfast on the last day. We are not able to mail medication left behind to the churches or individuals. If any medications are left behind, the Health Center will call the group leader to arrange for them to be picked up.
Sick Camper Policy
Campers who feel ill while at camp, and are brought to the health center by their youth leader, will be evaluated for a fever and other contagious symptoms. If a camper is found to have a fever in excess of 100.4 and have potentially contagious symptoms, they will be isolated at the health center until the fever is gone for 24 hours without any anti-fever medication in their system, and their symptoms are improved. If symptoms persist or temperature goes above 102, then arrangements will need to be made to have the camper picked up from camp by a parent or guardian in the shortest time frame possible. If the 24 hour isolation period would exceed the time remaining in camp, a parent or guardian will be responsible for the pick up of the camper in the shortest time frame possible.
Sick Camper Transportation
It is imperative that parents are aware of this policy and are ready to pick up their camper in the case where they become sick and potentially contagious. Hume does not recommend transporting sick campers home in the same bus or vehicle that is being used to transport healthy students. In the event of serious injury or a life-threatening emergency, Hume will assist with the transportation of campers, but we strongly urge all churches to have an additional vehicle on site for the medical transportation of campers in non-emergency situations or due to illness.
Check-In at Hume
This is for church administrators, pastors, or leaders who will have the required paperwork, medications, and payment for the church.
When you arrive, follow the signs for Check-in.
Check-in Location: The Welcome Center
Check-in Begins: 4:00 PM
Winter Driving & Snow Chains
When driving in the mountains with any icy or snowy conditions, you are required to carry chains or cables in your vehicle at all times. There are several ways up to Hume SoCal which means snow chains may be required to be installed on one highway and not the other, so you should always carry chains in your vehicle during the winter months, even if your car has snow tires. You may be subject to a ticket and can be denied passage without chains in your vehicle.
R1 Chain Control Sign
State law requires ALL vehicles (including 4WD and AWD) to carry tire chains or cables when entering chain-control zones. All vehicles must have chains or cables that fit properly and are in good repair. Signs will be posted along the road indicating the type of requirement (R1, R2, R3). Please pay attention as these indicate when you need to install the chains on your vehicle.
Caltrans provides this Winter Driving Guide to make your winter driving experience safe and pleasant. If you’ve never driven in winter weather before, be sure to check this out and share it with your drivers.
If you are chartering a bus, we highly recommend that you make them aware of these requirements and check that they have chains for their vehicles and know how to use them before you travel.
Map and Directions
When you arrive, follow signs for Church Check-In. Our staff will help direct you.
Check out our Winter Campus Map for help getting around once you’re here!
Spiritual Direction
We live in a world where troubling things happen, and at the same time, we serve a God who is good and sovereign over all. This summer, we are going to dive into the story of Joseph in the book of Genesis to answer some of life’s most puzzling questions such as, “Where is God in my affliction?” or “How can an all-powerful God allow such evil?” In Genesis 50:20, Joseph makes the definitive statement, “You meant evil against me, but God meant it for good.” As we study the story of Joseph, we hope that students can learn to trust in God, who is not only with us in our affliction but uses it for our good and His glory. Even in the trials and difficulties of life, we can trust in the sovereignty and providence of God.
Visual Direction
Through our opener and films we will take to the sea, past fjord and mountain to a land called Habril. In this Viking inspired land, we follow the character Seph and his relationship with the God of his family, Allvaldr. In dreams where axes, drinking horns, and frozen wastelands hold the future of the people of Habril, Seph learns why Allvaldr means sovereign ruler through seasons of suffering and blessing.
Theme Verse
“As for you, you meant evil against me, but God meant it for good, to bring it about that many people should be kept alive, as they are today.”
Super Spirit Day
Braids & Beards, Ballgowns & Black Tie
Unleash your inner warrior or your most refined self on a day of epic contrasts! Channel the fierce spirit of a viking, complete with a fur cloak and war paint, or step into a world of sophistication with top hats and tiaras. Will you conquer as a viking, dazzle in elegance, or will you do both?!
