FAQs

Do I need to provide lunch for my child?

Yes. Please provide your child with their own nut-free lunch, two healthy snacks, and a water bottle each day.  Please be aware that campers will not be allowed to share their food to further protect children that have allergies. 

Will my children be indoors all day?

Not at all! What makes our camp unique is the balance between indoor and outdoor activities. Our Makerspace is conveniently located right next to a local nature trail and park so campers get the chance to participate in challenges and activities outside, get some physical activities, and enjoy the fresh air!

What kinds of physical activity will kids do?

We encourage our campers to participate in the various team sports at camp. We have individual as well as more leisurely activities that campers can participate in, like catch, frisbee, and a number of other team-building activities that will get them moving!
