Departure

  • Plan to arrive to pick up your camper at 9:30 am on Saturday morning (or 9:30 Wednesday morning for mini-Chico sessions.)  We try to dismiss as close to 9:30 as possible, but campers are responsible for cleaning up huts before leaving, so sometimes we run a little bit behind.
  • Be sure to bring your photo id to camp on check-out day.  You will be asked to show your photo id to a camp staff member.
  • You will be able to hear the campers signing the camp songs one more time as they are dismissed from the dining hall.  Chico campers will be dismissed directly from the Chico Dining Hall.

  • Double-check the luggage pile for all their belongings - often they expand over the week at camp. Also, please ask your camper to look in the luggage area. Many times they will pack differently than you packed, and small bags are frequently left behind (as are pillows, fans, teddy bears, bags of dirty clothes, etc.)
  • Check the lost and found on the gym stage! Don’t forget your crafts in the craft hut.
  • Medications will be given to the parents in the gym by the counselors.
  • After you have done all of these things, feel free to visit the canteen one last time with your child and to do any last-minute shopping.

If you are picking your camper up early, notify the Camp Director in writing prior to closing day on the Camper Check-out card. We cannot accommodate early departures on Saturday morning. If a camper must leave camp early, they must do so by Friday at 6 pm.
