Head Lice Check – The Island has a “No Nits” policy for head lice. We use all means possible to hinder the spread of lice, including mandatory inspection by our trained personnel on every camper on camp check-in day. We recommend that you check the head of every camper prior to arrival at camp and treat if necessary. (For a detailed description of our head lice protocol, please download the info sheet from our website at wol.is/island)
