Camps

Camp Registration
The registration deadline is one week before each camp session begins. A $25 deposit per session is required upon registration. Deposits are non-refundable and they are included in the tuition fees. All camp fees must be paid in full by June 1, 2010 or upon session registration after that date. Since space is limited and the counselors are hired to fulfill group size, the camp fees are not pro-rated. Deposits are non-refundable nor can they be transferred to other programs.

 

Transportation - (new bus procedure)
Our camp programs offer a bus service at an
additional fee to pick up and drop off campers
at neighborhood locations on both the north and
south side of town. This service is optional and is
operated by the Westmont Park District. If using
this method of transportation, please refer to the
bus schedule to select your route and bus stop that
is closest to your home. Make sure to indicate your
selection on the registration form. Arrangements
should be made for an adult to supervise children
at the bus stop in both the morning and afternoon.
Confirmed bus stop, route and drop off/pick up
times will be mailed to participants the week
before camp begins. The bus transportation is
only available for Day Camp and Camp Operation
Fun participants. In order for this service to be
available, it is essential that the minimum of
participants is met in each session of camp.

Camp Staff
All activities are supervised by fully trained counselors who are certified in first aid, CPR and AED. The camp staff is carefully selected for their leadership abilities, caring nature and strong desire to work with children of all ages in both small and large groups in a recreational setting.

 

Parent Orientation
Parents and campers are encouraged to attend the camp orientation meeting on Wednesday, June 9 at 7:00PM at the Senior/Administration Building located at 55 E. Richmond St. This is a great opportunity to meet the camp staff, learn important information and have all your camp questions answered.

 

Lunch
Day Camp and Camp Operation Fun campers should bring their lunch in a cooled container and water in an insulated bottle marked with their name. Beverages such as lemonade and water will be offered at lunch time as well as throughout the day as needed.

 

Swimming
Campers from each camp will escape the heat at the Westmont High School indoor pool for an hour of recreational swimming each week. The Day Camp campers attend on Tuesdays & Thursdays and the Camp Operation Fun campers attend on Mondays & Wednesdays. The pool is supervised by trained lifeguards and camp staff. Occasionally, both camps will use Lions Pool in Clarendon Hills as an alternate site for swimming.

 

Field Trips
Each session of Day Camp includes one paid field trip to a local attraction and the Camp Operation Fun camp includes a field trip adventure every week at no additional cost as well. A camp t-shirt is included in the camp fee and is required to be worn on field trip days. Information and permission forms pertaining to these activities are sent home in advance.
