im a ninth grade girl and im going to sleepaway camp in a few wks and i have a bedwetting problem. i also went to camp 2 yrs ago- that was my first time. before i went i thought i was pretty much cured but the first night of camp proved that i was not! thankfully, i had a rlly good counselor who helped me and no one found out. i did not inform the camp beforehand but when i had an issue they were extremely accommodating. i changed my sheets during activities and washed them in the infirmary. all i cud say is boruch hashem for sewage problems cuz thats what everyone blamed the unpleasant odor on!

a bedwetting issue should not stop your son from going to camp– even if it is every night. if he’s young or the probs really bad make sure to alert the camp. you could get a lysol automatic air freshener “installed” in his bunkhouse before camp starts so it wont smell bad. make sure he has a good counselor. and get him medication and waterproof matress pads.

good luck!
