COVID19 QUESTIONS:
Are parents allowed on campus?
No. This spring, parents are not allowed to park and walk into campus. All drop off and pickup will be done "curbside". If you need to drop off your child late (or pick them up early), please arrange with the camp office and we will bring your child out to the car.

What about the 1st Aid Office?
Each group's counselor will have a "mobile" first aid kit with minor injury relief. If your child requires more care, their Group Leader will be notified and can assist the camper. If your child is sick or has an injury requiring medical attention, we will call you. Please make sure to pick up your child immediately if we determine that is needed.

What if my child does not like an activity?
While The Art Camp strives to make Camp enjoyable for all campers, satisfaction with a workshop is subjective on the part of the child and the parent. Therefore, it is understood and agreed that The Art Camp cannot and does not guarantee or warrant any campers' satisfaction with the workshops they have chosen. Campers are not able to change workshops or groups within the current camp week. If they want to make changes to future weeks, and we have room, we can accomodate that.

What if my child is attending camp alone?
Our camp counselors are AMAZING friendmakers and will help them adjust and enjoy their time at camp!

What if my child loses something at camp?
Please do not send anything to camp that is not replaceable and please put your child's name on everything! Our counselors do a very good job at trying to make sure nothing is left behind, but things do sometimes get left. If you return home and realize your child forgot something, please contact us as soon as possible so we can make every effort to get it to you. Items will be kept for one week in the Lost & Found when camp is over then donated to a local charity.

What if I need to reach my child at camp?
We want to work with you to make this experience a great one for your camper – we will call you if any of the following occur: Your child is very upset, your child is ill or injured and requires anything more than a Band-aid or an ice pack, there is anything we would like to discuss with you (behavior issues, medication doses, etc.). In case of an emergency at home (when you have to talk to your child), please call the camp office (or the Camp Directors). Please use this option only in the case of emergencies.
