WHERE WILL MY CHILD BE?
Campers study and explore at least one location each week. Exact location information for camp and shuttle services will be received after registration. Locations can be viewed below.
​
Children will be taught to walk safely in a line, holding onto a rope or holding hands with a partner as appropriate. They will be in a line where there will be one camp counselor at the front and one and the back. Those who cannot hold onto the rope will hold hands with camp counselors.
Naps
Campers ages 3-5 participating in rest time will be napping right next to the pickup spot, not farther away than five minutes.
*Please note: All campers must bring an outdoor sleeping bag for nap time.
​
Potty-Training Requirement: Children must be potty-trained to attend. Pull-ups are allowed only during nap time. If a child arrives in a diaper on the first day, they will be sent home, and their registration will be canceled.
