PEANUT SENSITIVE POLICY
Mill Pond Computer Club is dedicated to being peanut-free, however, there are instances when peanuts could be brought in accidentally by other groups using our campus. While we cannot guarantee a peanut-­free environment, we will strive to do our best. 

We ask that no peanuts be brought into our building. Foods sent in for snack, lunch, or any event should be carefully checked to make sure they are peanut free. This means the product cannot contain peanuts and cannot have the following warnings: “may contain...”; “processed in a facility...”, and “manufactured on shared equipment...” Families can help ensure that our camp stays peanut free by reading packaging labels and by reminding children not to share food with other children at our COMPUTER CLUB. We need to make sure that there is little opportunity for a child to be exposed to foods that could harm him/her. 

For your reference we have compiled a list of items for a peanut free snack. This policy will be available on our website for you to refer to throughout the summer. We appreciate your cooperation with this policy—the sacrifice of not having nuts or nut products in the camp is a small one to make compared to the consequences a child with severe allergies could face. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact Peter Meerwarth at 609-903-6560.
