Camp Registration

The registration deadline is one week before each camp session begins. A $35 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, 2011 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. Please note that on-line registration is not an available method of
registration for camp programs since birth certificates are
required to sign up for camp.

 

Transportation
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 camp
staff. 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. All participants will be notified by
telephone regarding drop off and pick up times a few days
before each session of 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 number of participants is met in
each session. All bus registrations must be finalized the
Thursday prior to the session that your child is signed
up to attend. Transportation to and from camp is only
available for those who reside within the park district
boundaries.

Camp Payments
Payments for Day Camp, Camp Operation Fun and Pre/Post Camps can be made by using a major credit card, cash or check. All payments for camp programs are accepted at the Community Center located at 75. E Richmond Street.

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 Wed., June 1 at 7 p.m. 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 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 utilize Lions Pool in Clarendon Hills as an alternative site for swimming.

 

 

Field Trips
Each session of Day Camp includes one paid field trip and Camp Operation Fun includes two field trips during each session of camp. In addition, both camps will also
take walking field trips to local parks, nearby attractions or downtown businesses each session. 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.
