FAQ

What are the sign-in and sign-out procedures?

You must sign in your camper(s) in the morning and sign them out again in the afternoon with the registration table. Each camper will be given a name tag with a unique code. You must be able to produce the code for a camper to be released from our care. Please make sure that the “Person(s) Authorized to Pick up” section of your registration is updated on your first morning.

What should I do if my camper is going to be absent?

Email: daycamp@pemchurch.ca

What if my child requires medication?

There are no nurses on staff. You should speak with camp staff if medication is required.

If your child has an epi-pen or asthma please ensure proper medication is in their backpack with clear written instructions on how and when to use it, also verbally connect with their day camp leader.

What are the cancellation and refund policies?

No refunds will be given for cancellations after June 30th. Cancellations prior to June 30th are subject to the $50 non- refundable deposit.

No refunds will be given for Camp days that the camper is absent and missed days cannot be made up.

Please note that Plattsville Church reserves the right to terminate the registration of any camper if, in the opinion of the manager, it is in the best interest of the camper and/or Camp. If the church terminates a camper’s registration a pro-rated refund will be considered.

What should my camper wear to Camp?

Campers must be dressed comfortably and appropriately, based on the weather. For health and safety reasons, open-toe shoes, roller shoes and Crocs are not recommended at Camp.

We encourage your camper to dress in order to participate in each week’s different themes!

What happens to lost items?

Any lost items will be placed in the lost and found, located at the check-in/check-out station. Just a reminder that the Church cannot be held responsible for lost or damaged goods, so please make sure everything is properly labelled to reduce the likelihood of lost items.

What is Tuck?

The tuck shop will be open every day for campers to select a treat. Tuck will have items such as sno-cones, chocolate bars, chips, & candy. We have a daily limit of 2 items. Tuck is included in the price of day camp. Please let us know if you would like your child NOT to participate in tuck, or be limited to 1 item.

I am a homeschooler, or my child didn’t attend JK. Can they still register?

Children born in 2020 – 2013 can be registered. The most important aspect for younger children is that they can attend the bathroom by themselves. The day is busy and there is no nap time available for children, parents will know best if their young child can manage this.
