Drop off and Pick up Procedures
- Drop off and pick up will be done curbside with parents and guardians remaining in their cars. When you arrive in the drop-off lane, on Walnut Street, a staff member will have you sign-in your child for camp. Your child will then be escorted to the campsite by our staff (updated Health and Safety details can be found below).
- You will need to bring a photo ID for pick up.
- As a reminder, visitors are not permitted on site.
