Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know
It’s natural to have lots of questions when you’re considering sending your child to a daycamp for the first time. To help make the process as easy as possible, we’ve provided a list of some of the most common questions we receive below.
What should I send with my child?
Appropriate clothing and shoes for the weather
One snack and a litterless lunch
Water bottle
More specific instructions will be sent to registrants directly.
Where do we go to the bathroom during camp?
This is a good question since our camp is entirely outdoors. We have planned our locations near public washrooms.
​
What will you do in case of emergency?
Both camp leaders are certified in first aid. A first aid kit and emergency information are carried with camp leaders at all times. In case of emergency, 911 will be contacted immediately. Parents will be contacted next. If parents are unable to be reached, emergency contacts will be called.
​
What happens in bad weather?
There is no such thing as bad weather, just bad clothing!
We do intend to run the camp in all types of weather. But of course, we have everyone’s safety as our priority. In the event of dangerous weather, we will seek a safe spot until children can be picked up. If dangerous weather is occurring before camp begins, we reserve the right to cancel session due to unsafe weather conditions.
​
My child has extra needs and may need extra support (such as ASD, ADHD, or other). Is your camp able to accommodate my child?
We do have experience with children with various needs and we would love to accommodate your child. Please contact us to discuss your child’s specific needs prior to registering.
We are open to all questions.
