Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How do I know I am registered for the week I want?
A: You will receive a Welcome Package within 2 weeks.  Please check the invoice for accuracy, as that includes the schedule.   The Welcome Package also requests information about your child to help make your child’s experience fun and safe.

Q: How do I get in touch with you during the day?
A: In your Welcome Package you will get our cell phone numbers. All Counselors and Life-guards are provided with cell phones.

Q: What if my child forgets his/her lunch?
A: We will never let a child go hungry.  We always have snacks on hand.

Q: What do you do when there is a thunderstorm??
A: We have two huge army tents with grounded poles. We have lots of battery operated lanterns and many activities planned. Should a weather emergency occur (hurricane or tornado), camp will be cancelled.

Q: What happens if there is an emergency?
A: During our week long training before camp, all of our counselors are well versed in emergency procedures.  Our lifeguards are trained in first aid and CPR.

Q: You have no electricity, how do you get your water?
A: We have a fifty gallon barrel (for hand washing) and 5 gallon coolers which we refill with fresh town water each morning.

Q. How often do campers apply sunscreen?
A.
Sunscreen is applied at least twice daily, and always before going to the waterfront. If your child has fair skin, we recommend swim shirts and hats even in the water to prevent burns.
