All children are supervised at all times.

Are camp leaders subjected to a background check?

All staff undergo background checks and our system continuously monitors any new activity. 

Are camp leaders only volunteers or are they licensed to work with children?

We are not a licensed facility, however, all staff go through multiple training sessions before starting.

Who may attend Summer Camp?

Ages ranging from 6-18 years old. 

Are the children separated by age groups and remain separated throughout the course of a day, on field trips, etc?

Campers are placed by their next school year grade! So if your camper is in 5th grade right now, they will be placed in the 6th grade group. There may be a time where we play outdoor games such as kickball which would be inclusive of all the grade levels, but other than that they are separate the majority of the time. For field trips, we place them in their grade levels. The different grades allow us to plan for different activities. The teenagers have their own area in the building which is completely away from the younger grades.

Do you accept volunteers during summer camp?

We always welcome volunteers! Our volunteers assist staff and help facilitate activities, they are never by themselves. If comfortable, we sometimes let our volunteers switch roles with staff - for example, the volunteer leads the activity and the staff member assists.
