As a reminder, if you are sending your kiddos with money, please have a conversation with them about keeping their money safe. All campers will need to keep their money in their bags unless they are actively using it. On day 3 of camp, stations are shortened and scrimmages end by 3:15pm in order to prepare for the grand finale of camp, which consists of our visitor from the North Pole, Gift Exchange and Annual Olympic Gold Medal Ceremony. In order for your child to take part in the gift exchange, we ask for you to send in a wrapped gift that costs $5 but no more than $10 (no gift cards please) and is gender neutral.
