We require online registration for all camps that we are offering. This will ensure that your child’s emergency information is included with every registration and can be given to the camp director specific to each week your child is registered. We understand that this may seem redundant when registering multiple children for multiple camps, but we believe the safety of your child is the most important responsibility we have during the summer and these extra steps will ensure we have the information we need at the start of camp should there be an emergency while your child is in our care. Instructions below are for all camps except those listed with different registration information. For these few camps, contact the camp directly for registration start dates and information.
