Work at Camp

We're so excited to see you at camp this summer! Here's what you can expect for check-in and check-out.

Day Camp Expand

Check-In Procedures: Day Camp
We have adjusted our check-in procedures for camp this summer. Passengers must remain in their vehicle throughout the check-in process.

  • On Monday morning, check-in is drive-through style 8-9 a.m. Please plan to spend about 15 minutes checking your camper into camp.
  • Enter the driveway and follow the traffic flow. At a couple of different stops, camp staff will greet you on the driver's side of your vehicle to check in your camper.
  • We will:
    • Ask for your camper’s name and verify which group she is registered in
    • Make sure all paperwork has been completed and have you fill out any missing documents
    • Collect any prescriptions or medications
    • Conduct a temperature check and ask several COVID-related questions
  • When done, we’ll have your camper exit the vehicle from the passenger side door, taking her daypack, water bottle, lunch, and other supplies. A friendly camp counselor will escort her to her group nearby!
  • Check-in on Tuesday through Friday is drive-thru style from 8:30-9 a.m.

Please explain this process to your camper, so they know what to expect and are prepared to leave your vehicle without you! Our counselors are prepared if a little bit of homesickness appears at this time.


Check-Out Procedures: Day Camp
You must bring a photo ID to pick up your camper each day.

  • Afternoon check-out is drive-thru style, 4-5 p.m. in the parking lot. Each day a staff member will greet you at the driver’s side to verify that the adult picking up your camper has permission to do so. The staff will check the transportation release and the adults’ photo ID.

Once identification has been checked, and the camper has been signed out, a staff member will bring your camper to the passenger side of your vehicle and help her in if needed!

Overnight Camp Expand

Check-In Procedures: Overnight Camp
We have adjusted our check-in procedures for camp this summer. Passengers must remain in their vehicle throughout the check-in process.

  • On the first day of camp, check-in is drive-thru style 2-4 p.m. Please plan to spend about 20 minutes checking your camper into camp (though it may take additional time if your camper has medication).
  • Enter the driveway and follow the traffic flow. At a couple of different stops, camp staff will greet you on the passenger side of your vehicle to check in your camper.
  • We will:
    • Ask for your camper’s name and verify which group she is registered in
    • Make sure all paperwork has been completed and have you fill out any missing documents
    • Conduct a temperature check and ask several COVID-related questions
    • Have your camper exit the vehicle for a head-lice check
  • When done, we’ll have your camper exit the vehicle from the passenger side, taking her daypack, water bottle, and other supplies. A friendly camp counselor will help get her luggage onto a wagon and escort her to her nearby group!
  • There will be additional stops after dropping off your camper. One will allow you to leave any mail you would like delivered to your camper throughout the week (make sure it has their name, session, and day you’d like it given to them written on it!), and another will be where we collect any prescriptions or medications for your camper.

Please explain this process to your camper, so they know what to expect and are prepared to leave your vehicle without you! Our counselors are prepared if a little bit of homesickness appears at this time.


Check-Out Procedures: Overnight Camp
You must bring a photo ID to pick up your camper.

  • Check-out is drive-thru style, 4-5 p.m. A staff member will greet you at the passenger’s side to verify that the adult picking up your camper has permission. The staff will check the transportation release and the adult’s photo ID.
  • Once identification has been checked, and the camper has been signed out, a staff member will bring your camper to your vehicle and help her gather her luggage and get it into the car.

If your camper had medication during their stay at camp, please visit the medication station on your way out to collect it.
