DROP-OFF / PICK-UP PROCEDURES

Drop-Off: Unless your child is registered for extended camp in the morning, parents must drop off and sign in their child by 8:15 am on the front steps.  If parent's come after 8:15 am and staff are not out front, parents must bring their child to the second floor gymnasium and sign him/her in to camp.

Pick-Up: If your child is NOT registered for extended camp in the afternoon parents must pick up and sign out their child at 4:00pm on the front steps.  For the safety of our campers, no children will be allowed to leave the group or YMCA without an adult signature. Please do not pick up your child without informing and signing out with a camp counselor.  If your child is not signed out by 4:10pm the YMCA reserves the right to place him/her in Post-camp care at your expense.

 PRE/POST CAMP EXTENDED CARE

Campers must be REGISTERED IN ADVANCE for Extended Care held in the Hubbard Gymnasium at the Summit YMCA.  Morning care is 7:30am - 8:30am and After-camp care is 4:00pm - 6:00pm.  During after camp children will have a snack and participate in fun activities, including rock climbing and swimming.  All campers must be signed in/out by a parent or person authorized to pick up or drop off your child at camp.

Parents who pick up their children later than 6:00pm will be charged a late fee of $2 per minute.  This fee must be paid before your child can return to camp.  Only children registered for morning care may be brought to the gym before 8:30am.

 RECREATION SWIM

Campers will participate in recreational swim at the YMCA pool twice a week.  All campers are skill tested and are only allowed to swim in areas that are equivalent to their swimming skill.  Campers should bring a bag with a swim suit and towel each day.  Please put their name on each item. 

Minors' swim days are Mondays and Thursdays. 

Majors' swim days are Tuesdays and Fridays.

 EXTREME WEATHER

In case of extreme heat or rain, campers will remain in the Hubbard Gym at the Summit YMCA, and the camp schedule will be altered.  This decision will be on a day-by-day basis.  Our outdoor camp will have a canopy available for protection.

 FIELD TRIPS

Sports Camp is scheduled to take daytrips every Wednesday each week.  Children must wear camp t-shirt on the trip.  T-shirts are handed out on Tuesdays.

Campers must bring their own lunch; they will not be able to purchase lunches on the trip.  The only money children will need will be for addition game tokens (no more than $5).
