What happens in the event of severe weather?
Weather is monitored closely at the Telford location where no indoor space is available. If thunder, lightning or pouring rain lasts for more than 30 minutes, parents will be contacted to pick up their children. If you do not respond to our text within 10 minutes, we will call to confirm that you are on your way. If we cannot reach you, we will begin contacting the emergency contacts listed on your child’s registration form.

While we regret that camp may occasionally be canceled due to weather or other safety issues, keeping children safe is our number one priority. Thank you in advance for your cooperation. *Refunds cannot be issued for weather related closures.

Is there a water refill station?
Yes, large dispensers of cold water are available for the children at all times. Be sure your child has a labeled, reusable water bottle with them everyday.
