Information & FAQs
Staff to Camper Ratio
The ACA accredited camps ratio is 1:6 for campers ages 3-5, 1:8 for campers ages 6-8, and 1:10 for campers ages 9-13. Campers must be within the camp’s age range by the first day of the session they are signed up for. Any registration submitted without a date of birth will be held until the date is verified. Parents or caregivers will be required to sign their children out of camp on a daily basis, unless we have written permission in advance for a child to go home on their own, in which case the child will sign themselves out of camp (only allowed for campers ages 10 and up).
Health & Emergency Information
Once you register your child for camp, you will be contacted to complete a health and emergency contact form which must be submitted prior to the start of camp.

FAQs
Campers who are 12 years or older may be granted permission by their parents or guardians to sign themselves in and out. For children aged 10 or 11, we highly recommend that they be signed out by a parent or guardian. We do not provide crossing guards, and children will not be leaving in large numbers to walk home. If a parent feels their 10 or 11-year-old can sign themselves out, written notification must be provided in advance (they will have the option to do this on their child’s emergency form). Children under 10 years of age must be signed in and out by a parent/guardian.
Camps are divided by grade range. Participants should sign up for camps matching the grade they will be entering in the upcoming school year.
There is a payment plan offered for all park district summer camps. To be eligible for the payment plan, registration must be received no later than March 31 of the registration year. There is a minimum deposit of $25 for each camp section registration. A credit card is required at the time of registration as that card will be used automatically with balance split between May 1 and June 1.
