Summer is here!!! After the brutal winter we had, the warm weather is very, very welcome. And so is camp! This last quarter of the school year felt just as brutal as the weather. Both of my kids had projects due, special event nights at school, this and that for sponsorships and Walk-A-Thons and dances, oh my. We are all ready for school to be on hiatus and camp to start.
I don’t know about your camp, but many camps (particularly those related to schools) in the Chicagoland area require your child to go through a camp physical before attending. And if your insurance is like ours, you get one physical per year for your child and the rest is on you. If you are not currently carrying insurance, this is an even greater cost out of pocket! Luckily for us, CVS’ MinuteClinic is offering camp and sports physicals for only $39! This is $20 off the regular price and available for a limited time only.
If you’ve never been to the MinuteClinic, it is worth your time to check it out. We have a pediatrician that we love, but he is quite far from our house when the kids just need a strep test or my husband or I aren’t feeling well. That’s when we make a run over to the MinuteClinic. There is almost literally a CVS on every corner around Chicago (okay, not EVERY corner, but There are at least six within a two mile radius of my house), so finding a MinuteClinic is easy, quick and convenient. Plus, the pharmacy is right there so picking up a prescription is a cakewalk.
Whether your child’s camp requires a physical or not, you may want to take advantage of a quick physical anyway. It is important to make sure that your kids are healthy and up for the challenge of a long day hiking, playing, being out in the heat and more! Plus, for less than $40, it’s a really good deal.
