Thank you for your interest in the hottest camp in town!
To prepare for the best summer you've ever had, we have put together this
information to ensure that the camp will be both FUN and successful. Please
review this information with your child before camp so that everyone is ready
for a great summer.
Drop-Off & Pick-Up
Drop-off time is between 7:30am and 8:30am. The main gate will be open for
camper check-in during this time. Group activities begin at 8:30am so please
be on time so you don't miss any of the FUN!
Pick-up will be from 4:00pm - 6:00pm. To assure the safety
of our campers we will require a driver's license for identification to
release your camper to individuals you have authorized on your registration
form. Using a two-way radio, your arrival is announced. Your child will meet
the authorized driver at the designated drop off/pick up area.

lost something. Items are donated to local charities after one week.
Swim Test
Each camper is required to take a swim test on Monday. They are required
to swim approximately 50 meters to determine the water safety skills of
all campers. Successful completion allows the camper to swim in the deep
end of the swimming area, if not they are restricted to the shallow area.
We provide a variety of water toys and games to keep every camper active!
Discipline
Our goal is to have every camper share in the positive experiences
our camp has to offer. Please review the following expectations with your

warned, then disciplined, and finally asked to leave camp.

for:
