Canada and Passports

The summer is coming quickly, which means that our campers will soon be exploring the waterways of Canada. As a reminder, the regulations for entering and departing the United States from Canada have changed. Because of these changes, Chippewa has adopted the following requirements for our campers:

· If your son will be on a Canadian canoe trip (heading into 9th grade or higher in most cases), camp requires that your son have a passport for camp.
· If your son will participate in the Hook Island program (6th and 7th grades, and possibly 5th grade), camp asks that you send a passport if your son has one, otherwise to send an original or certified copy of his birth certificate.
· In all cases, a Canadian permission form is required. It can be found on our website.
