Tell me more about getting to camp on the first day.
Parents are required to drop their campers at the location they have registered. Our drop-off time is 9am daily with pick-up at 4pm at a designated area of the location. With advanced notice we can offer your child(ren) before and after camp care starting at 8:00am and ending at 5:30PM.

A $100 deposit is required for every 1 week session a child is registered.
