What to wear, what to bring (snacks and lunches).

Campers should wear comfortable clothing that is weather appropriate. For their safety and protection, they should wear closed toe shoes, hats and sunscreen (SPF 15 or higher). We are not responsible for lost or missing items. Please label your camper’s clothing and personal items so lost items can be identified. Campers should avoid bringing money, electronic devices and other valuables. Campers are asked to have clean indoor shoes.

​

Please pack a refillable water bottle, snacks and lunches that will not spoil. We typically eat morning snack around 10 a.m., lunch at noon and afternoon snack around 2 p.m. Please be sensitive to those campers with life-threatening food allergies. All camps are ‘Nut Aware.’ We ask that you do not send products containing nuts or that may contain nuts listed on the labels. Please remind your child that they are not to share any food with the other campers.

​

Disruptive behaviour

Disruptive behaviour is handled in a fair and consistent manner using progressive behaviour management strategies. Staff use approaches that are positive, supportive, consistent, proactive, and based on logical consequences. We reserve the right to withdraw a child from camp should their behaviour jeopardize the physical safety and security of themselves, participants, staff or property. Communication is provided to all parents/guardians should a situation arise.
