Summer Camp Frequently Asked Questions

Can children under the age of four sign up for camp?

At this time we are only able to offer camp for children between the ages of 4 and 9.  We ask that children sign up for a week of camp which starts after their 4th birthday.

Can my child enroll in the same camp as their friends?

We make every effort to accommodate requests for campers to be in the same group as their friends.  As long as all of the children have registered for the same camp, during the same week, time and age group they will most likely be grouped together.

Why aren’t you offering Soap Box Car camp this summer?

We will not be offering Soap Box Car Camp this year due to low enrollment during 2007.

If I enroll my child in a morning camp and an afternoon camp do I still need to pay for lunch care?

Lunch care is included if children are enrolled in both a morning and afternoon camp.

If my child is enrolled in only a morning camp or only an afternoon camp can I sign them up for lunch care?

Yes, lunch care is available from noon-1pm, after camps which run from 9am-12pm and before camps which run from 1pm-4pm for an additional $35.
