Summer FAQs

Each day, please arrive five minutes prior to your camp start time. Camps begin at 8:30 AM for morning camp and 12:00 PM for afternoon camp.

First through 9th grade campers should enter campus through the Donmoyer Road gate and be dropped off at the main entrance (door #1). Please use this front circle for pick-up as well. On the first day, campers will receive their t-shirts and meet their camp instructors at the registration table. 

All early childhood campers should arrive and depart through the High Street gate and enter through door #10. More information on early childhood camps will be sent from the instructor.

On the first day, parents will be asked at the registration table to confirm who is authorized to pick up their child(ren). Also, please note the building will close promptly at 3:00 PM each day unless the camper is signed up for post-camp care.

We are a nut-free facility. Please pack snacks that are appropriate for the heat and easy for your child to eat. If your child is staying all day, please pack a nut-free lunch as well.

If your camper has asthma, food allergies or another medical condition, please complete the attached pertinent action plan: Asthma, Food Allergy, or Seizure. Campers with allergies should carry EpiPens with them at all times. Campers who have completed the 2019-20 academic year at Stanley Clark have a valid action plans on file in the nurse's office and will not need to complete a new form. 

Please bring water bottles for outdoor camps and apply sunscreen before you arrive. Remember to wear comfortable clothes for athletics or clothes that are not restricting for art making. 

All early childhood campers should apply sunscreen before arrival and bring extra sunscreen, a bathing suit, sandals or water shoes, a towel, and water bottle. Early childhood campers need to bring an extra change of clothes in a Ziplock bag labeled with camper's name on the first day of camp. 

Families who have registered for pre and/or post-camp care should use door #18 off of Ridgedale Road for drop-off and pick-up. Once you enter the doors, please go up the stairs and buzz for assistance where you will be greeted.
