General info:
This summer, we will be promoting team building and leadership while being active and creative through our day camp programs! We want our campers to have fun, make memories, build bonds with other campers and to have a positive experience at day camp! It's important to empower campers to get more involved with the community, to embrace new skills and inspire them to take on new challenges.

Registration:
Thursday, June 15th from 6-7:30pm at the pavilion in Rotary Park. Registration will happen on a first, come, first served basis. Although all three are separate organizations, our day camp registration will also happen in conjunction with registration for swimming lessons and registration for the swim team.
Please note that there will be no registration for our day camps at any time earlier than when we open at 6pm that night. That means if you cannot be there for registration night, you need to make arrangements for someone else to sign up for you. You can register any time after registration night but there is no guarantee that there will be any spots left.
