Does my child need to be potty trained to attend camps?

Yes, all of our campers need to be potty trained and we do not allow pull-ups. If your child is newly potty trained it would be a good idea to pack a change of clothes for your child.

My child has allergies, is he/she still able to join?

Of course, your child may still join us. If your child's allergy is life-threatening please let us know so we can prepare with any extra precautions. Also, you will need to send your child's epipen in a bag with ice packs if it needs to stay cold. Our camps are all nut-free!

Do I need to stay at camp while my child is there?

No, our camps are all a drop-off format.

Someone other than myself and my spouse will be picking up my child for camp today, what information do you need?
