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.
