DCSD Heat Protocol for Summer Camp
Heat Exhaustion is a very real thing and is taken seriously. Turf and ambient temps are recorded regularly to ensure safety for everyone. We have a first aid/cooling tent set up next to the field to deal with anything from a blister to more serious issues. We keep student forms in a binder in the tent along with a fully stocked first aid kit, Gatorade, water, fans, cooling cloths, etc. The students are on the field in the morning and in sectionals (inside) after lunch. The band breaks for water and rest at the recommended frequency as dictated in the DCSD protocols.
