Frequently Asked Questions

WHAT SHOULD MY CHILD BRING TO CAMP?
​Clothing to wear:
  • Comfortable clothing
  • Sneakers (or shoes that don't come off easily, to minimize tripping hazards)
  • Scrunchie/hair tie (if your child has longer hair)
​
Parents should pack the following for each child:
  • Snack
  • Lunch
  • Water Bottle

Notes:
  • ALL food must be nut-free to minimize any possible allergy exposure.
  • Any food that requires peeling or sliced (oranges, bananas, etc) must be pre-peeled and/or sliced at home. We cannot touch your child's food.
DID YOU RECEIVE MY REGISTRATION?​
Once you submit your form, a message will appear to tell you that we will typically respond (via email) within 24-48 hours of your submission.

​Anything submitted after business hours on Friday and into the weekend, will be addressed on the following Monday (or Tuesday).

If you haven't received a follow up or confirmation by then, please double check your spam folder first before reaching back out to us to double check if we have received your registration.
​IS THERE STILL SPACE AVAILABLE IN YOUR CAMP? ​
We make all efforts to update our website as soon as possible when we are near or at capacity, to ensure accurate availability.

However, please keep in mind that we approve registrations on a first come-first serve basis and as such, available spots may already be full by the time we get to your registration.

This may happen if we receive multiple registrations at the same time.
What's the age range for kids to participate in your camps?​
Our programs are typically designed for kids 4-10.

​Most kids who attend are between the ages of 4-8. We've had older kids attend, as old as 12, though it's usually because they have a younger sibling that is also attending. 

Some camps have more younger kids (4-6), while others have more older kids (7-10). It all depends on who signs up for a particular camp. We always encourage kids to be signed up with their friends and/or siblings, so they know at least 1 other kid in the camp. ​
IS THERE A SIBLING DISCOUNT IF I REGISTER MULTIPLE KIDS?​
No, we do not offer a sibling discount. All kids will be charged the same price per child, regardless of how many kids are registered together from the same family.
