• Sign-in at the door

  An adult on your list signs your camper in and out at the door every day, and we ask for photo ID until we know you.

• Tools and materials

  Campers wear safety glasses for any build that needs them, and a counselor is beside any camper using a hand tool. Materials are chosen for the age group.

• Launch days

  Rockets and gliders fly on the lawn behind the building, from a marked line. Campers stay behind it until a counselor calls the launch, and a windy or wet launch moves indoors.

• Heat, sun and weather

  Outdoor blocks have shade and a water break between activities, and we move inside when it is very hot or stormy. Send your camper with sunscreen already on.

• Allergies, medicine and illness

  Tell us about allergies and medicine at registration, and we ask what we need privately. A camper with a fever stays home, and if a camper feels ill at camp, we call you and a counselor stays with them until you arrive.

• Drills

  Every group practices fire and shelter-in-place drills in the first week, so campers know where to go and who to follow.
