REGISTRATION QUESTIONS
Can I still register?
Registration is now closed. We do not have a waiting list. If anything opens up, it will be posted on Facebook and the website on a first-come-first-serve basis. Thank you for your understanding.
Can I register for all 6 weeks even if we might make vacation plans?
Yes BUT DO NOT sign up for all 6 weeks just to "hold" a spot. Your payment will not be refunded if you cancel. We still need to pay our staff and other children in the community lose the opportunity to attend camp if you sign up and then cancel at the last minute.
What are the hours?
9:00 AM to 12:00 PM Monday through Friday. We are a recreational program, we are not a childcare provider. We run a very structured program and have a busy morning.
Do they have to wear masks?
Masks are not mandatory for campers or staff but staff will wear them if someone has a summer cold or is in extremely close proximity. Do not send your child if they are not feeling well. One exposure can set the entire program back. If your child is sick, we will credit the time away from the program.
What if my child tests positive for COVID?
If your child tests COVID, keep them home until your doctor gives approval and they are not symptomatic (fever, vomiting, diarrhea, coughing, sneezing).
Do we take four-year-olds or seventh-graders?
Our camp takes children 5 through 12 years of age, kindergarten through sixth grade. If your child is four during the summer program unfortunately they aren't eligible! We look at grades completed when structuring our groups. If your child is 12 and in sixth grade, they are still eligible for camp.
Does my child need to swim to enjoy pool Fridays?
We will give every camper a swim test to know what part of the pool they may use. Only children in the second grade and up may go off the diving boards after passing a test. The cost of the pool is included in the registration fee. You do not have to pay extra for the pool. Your pool pass will not be accepted during camp pool time. Each group gets 30 minutes of pool time.
Is a doctor's signature needed on the emergency form?
No doctor's signature is required on the forms.
Are there more dates for registration?
At this time, there is only one date for sign-ups. Once we review the registration count, we will reevaluate to see if we will add more sign-ups. It is in-person on Saturday, March 11th from 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM. To be fair to everyone, there will be no early registration.
What if I have a question not listed here?
If you have any questions, you can email or enter a comment on Facebook and we will answer them. Things are always evolving and changing with our program (mostly because our numbers have increased every summer.) We try our best to accommodate everyone unfortunately that is not always possible, our goal is to provide a quality program!
IN-SESSION QUESTIONS
How are children grouped together?
They are grouped together by the grade they just completed.
Do they have to attend all of the sessions?
No, we are flexible. You can pay by the day!
What if my child is not feeling well before camp?
Please do not send your child to camp if they are not feeling well.
What if my child does not feel well during camp?
If your child starts to feel ill, we will give you a call to pick them up if the nurse feels this is best.
When do I need to pay for the upcoming week?
Payment is due for each week at the start of Monday morning, however, full payment can be taken at any time.
What is the camper-to-counselor ratio?
Each group will have a lead teacher, a handful of junior counselors, and a few juniors in training. Each rotation has an additional lead counselor.
What if my child does not know how to swim?
We ask that your child wear a life jacket and will remain in the shallow end. Swim lessons can be purchased through Blue Eagle Swim, and your child can get a lesson while at camp if you desire.
