If your child stays late, there is a $1.00 per minute late fee payable directly to the staff member who must stay with your child. This applies to Second Home, Kids Konnection, and the game room. Please arrive on time!
Game room campers ages 8 and older may use the adult-supervised game room free of charge during aftercare hours. However, we ask that you please indicate this on your registration form to avoid confusion. Campers in the game room are given the option to “check out” and use the swimming pool facilities. Please indicate permission on the registration form for your camper to gain access to this area.
