As our team plans for summer 2024, we will continue our staggered camper check-in process. Please refer to your registration confirmation or the list below for your camper’s check in time.
- 2nd – 5th grade session campers check in at 3:00 p.m. on the start date of their session.
- 6th – 8th grade session campers check in at 2:00 p.m. on the start date of their session.
- 9th – 12th grade session campers check in at 1:00 p.m. on the start date of their session.
Families will be notified of changes as they are made.
Summer Camp Arrival
As you arrive at camp, there will be staff on hand to help direct you where to go. Ask any staff member if you need help.
You can expedite the check in process by making sure your camper has her backpack with her Fab Five and the items listed below.
Trading Post money – this is optional but you will need money in the Trading Post account to send emails as money will get deducted out per email (see page 16)
All medication – All inhalers, medicated creams, and prescription anynon-prescription drugs need to be checked in with the health service staff upon arrival. They must be in original containers with labels and doctor’s release.
Health Check - All campers (girls and adults) will have a general health screening before they are checked into camp. This will include taking the camper’s temperature and inspecting for head lice. Braids and ponytails will need to be taken out so you may want to wait until after the health check to braid hair.
At check-in, families will get a map and be directed to their camper’s unit. Please obey all speed limits and signs and do not drive on or park on the grass. A counselor will be at the drop off point to welcome your camper and help her with her belongings. Please try to keep this process quick as we do not have much space for parking and other campers will be waiting to move in. Additionally prolonging good-byes can promote homesickness in your camper.
Summer Camp Departure
Departure Check-Out Time
2:00 p.m. – Grades 2-12 (Tuesdays and Fridays)
Gates will open to enter camp no earlier than 1:45 p.m. To avoid traffic backups and to keep our camp neighbors happy, please do not arrive early to camp. Limited parking is available in the lower lot while waiting for the gates to open.
At 2:00 pm on Friday there will be a Scout’s Own at the Lodge where campers will be able to share a presentation they have created about things they enjoyed this week! You will be able to pick up your camper after the ceremony.
Please verify your check-out day and time and plan to pick up your camper at the appropriate time. On time pick-up eases your camper’s nerves during the anticipation of going home. If something happens and you are running late, please call the camp office so we can let your camper know you are on your way and keep her busy until you arrive.
The person picking up each camper will be required to show a photo ID. No campers will be released to unauthorized persons or persons without a photo ID.
Special Arrangements
Your camper’s program activities begin immediately and we don’t want her missing out on this valuable time to get to know her fellow campers and settle into camp life. Campers who must arrive late, or depart early are asked to make this request to the camp director prior to the camp session. This year we will not be able to allow campers to leave the property during a session and return. If you have concerns, please reach out to the Camp Director prior to camp.
Pets
Pets are not allowed on camp property. Please leave pets or other animals at home when dropping off or picking up your camper from camp.
Registered service animals are the exception. To maintain the health and safety of all campers and their adults, we ask that you contact the Camp Director to make accommodations before arriving at camp with a service animal.
