Frequently Asked Questions

Can my child register with a friend?

Yes! You can make a buddy request when you are registering your child for KIDS Camp.

Can my child attend more than one week of KIDS Camp?

Yes! It's very common for us to see kids more than once during the summer. In that case, we try to place your camper with different counselors throughout the summer while they enjoy new groups of kids each week. Weekly themes keep things exciting, too!

What does my child need to bring with them to KIDS Camp?

The recommended daily packing list includes a healthy bag lunch, a water bottle, sturdy shoes (flip flops are not suitable for active play), swimsuit, towel, sunscreen, and bug spray. Please dress according to the weather, and label all items with the child's name. KIDS Camp provides a morning and afternoon snack each day. Please be sure to read the KIDS Camp Parent Handbook.

What additional forms does my child need on file prior to starting their first day of camp?

Your child will need a 2025 Health Form on file in the KIDS Camp office prior to their first day of camp.

What if my child requires medication while at camp?

All medication that will accompany your child to camp needs to be in its original container, and the 2025 Medication Authorization Form must be completed.
