What your child needs to bring:

Mini Adventurers should bring a snack and a water bottle each day, along with a full change of clothes and a towel. Closed toe shoes (sneakers) are required for safety, and hats/sunglasses are helpful during outdoor activities.

If you would like your child to wear sunscreen or bug spray, please apply it before they arrive at camp.

You will receive a welcome email the week before camp with theme specific needs - plan to have your child wear their bathing suit under their clothes on water days. 

Kindergarten Extension (Open to those attending Kindergarten in Fall 2025)

Prepare your soon-to-be kindergartener for a successful start to their school journey with our Kindergarten Extension Program!

This is an optional extension to camp that will run from 12:00 - 2:00 pm each day and is available only to campers who will be starting kindergarten in Fall 2025. 

We will eat lunch together and focus on essential skills that can help to ensure a smooth transition to kindergarten.  From working on the alphabet and numbers to practicing name spelling and exploring early school routines, our engaging and interactive activities will provide a head start on the fundamental building blocks of kindergarten. 

Join us for a fun and educational experience that sets the stage for a confident and enthusiastic entry into the world of kindergarten! 

Pack a snack and lunch, and prepare to drop your campers off at 9:00 am, and pick them up at 2:00 pm.  Drop-off in the morning is at the Recreation Building at EG Farms and pick-up in the afternoon will be at the Sears House at EG Farms (white building on your left when you enter the park).
