Hard to imagine, where I’m at we practically document a paper cut, if only to protect ourselves from litigation.

Do you have any photos of the injury? That would be most helpful in moving forward.

As suggested, a lawyerly letter would be good and I’m surprised the teacher who witnessed the incident didn’t voluntarily contact you.

Certainly action should be taken against the camp.

The downside of things like this is that often the Admin or School District decides to discontinue ALL field trips.
