Vaccine Requirements
All Youth Participants must be up-to-date with their immunizations in accordance with the below-listed immunization schedule in order to attend UC Berkeley Youth Recreation programs and camps. Youth Participants who do not meet this requirement will have their registration voided. Refunds will be subject to UC Berkeley Youth Recreation Withdrawal policies. UC Berkeley Youth Recreation requires that updated immunization records be uploaded into your children’s CampDoc profile at the time of registration.
Before campers arrive on site, you must update Immunization Records in the CampDoc health profile for each camper in your household.
