*Traditional
afternoon pick-up starts at 3:00 p.m. and thus we strongly
urge parents not to arrive earlier than 3:00 p.m., as that will
create traffic woes. The line of cars can be moved quickly if we do
not have a line of cars waiting prior to 3:00 p.m. Campers are not
available at the pick-up site until 3:00 p.m. Campers that are not
picked up by 3:30 p.m. will be brought to Camp Base. Fees will
be assesed for campers that have multiple late pick-ups.

What to Bring
Please send your child with a backpack. They will not be given lockers,
so a backpack is great to hold their belongings. *Please label all
of your camper's belongings, backpacks, water bottles, etc.* Please
pack their backpacks with any materials needed for classes, i.e.
swim suits, towels, sun screen, personal tennis racquets, etc. Please
also
send snacks and bottled water with your children (see the Lunch Menu & Snacks
section for more information).
Other notes: Please have your children wear closed-toe shoes due
to the rugged terrain. "Wheely" shoes are not permitted. Please leave
electronic games, iPods, and other expensive devices at home.
