IMPORTANT CAMP DETAILS
Refunds and Changes
There are no refunds or reductions in fees for days missed due to illness, absence, vacations, suspensions, dismissal, or change in family circumstance during Camp sessions. There is a $40 transfer fee per change for switching the sessions and/or programs for which your child is registered after initial enrollment, except for changes resulting from changes in waitlist status. Transfer fees must be paid in full at time of transfer.
Extended Care
Campers in AM Care may arrive anytime between 8:00 – 9:00 am. Parents or guardians must bring campers inside the building and sign them in each morning. You may not leave your child unattended in the building or drop them off in front of the building.
Campers in PM Care will be brought to their extended care counselor at 3:45 pm. You may pick up your camper from PM Care at your convenience between 4:00 and 5:30 pm by going to the Youth & Family Office on the 3rd floor. You will be asked to provide an ID when signing your camper out. PM Care drive-through is at Walnut St. from 5:45 – 6:00 pm. Please see the below drop down on drive-through for more details. If you need to pick up your camper at the earlier drive-through, please call the Camp Hotline (415.563.6608) to inform Camp staff.
First Day Check-In
Check-in is in the atrium at 3200 California Street, and begins at 8:40 am. You must walk your camper into the classroom after check-in. Campers will be allowed into the rooms at 8:40 am.
If your camper is enrolled in AM Care, check-in in the Youth & Family Office on the 3rd floor any time between 8:00 – 8:40 am. After 8:40 am please check-in in the atrium. AM Care is not a drop-in program. You must register for this program in advance, and it often fills up. To add extended care, please complete our online registration process.
DASHBOARD PLACARDS
Complimentary parking is available in our garage for 30 minutes during drop-off and pick-up times. Curbside drop-off and pick-up is available at our drive-through location (see below).
Drop-Off Procedures
Morning curbside drop off takes place on Walnut Street from 8:35 – 8:55 am. Families are also welcome to park and bring their child up to their camp room. Camp rooms open at 8:40 am.
Some helpful tips:
For safety, you may only enter by making a right turn onto Walnut Street from California Street and turning right into our curbside drop-off. You will not be allowed to make a left turn into the curbside drop-off if you are coming south from Sacramento Street.
Make sure that you display your parking placard on your dashboard so that camp and security staff can easily identify you as a camp family and help facilitate your curbside process. Please be sure your camper’s name is clearly written.
Be prepared to show valid ID for when signing out your camper.
If you are driving, please do not get out of your car. Camp staff will be available to open the door and help your camper into their car seat or seatbelt.
If you are arriving by public transportation, bicycle or walking, you may walk to the curbside pickup from the pedestrian gate on California Street, just west of the garage entrance.
Pick-Up Procedures
If you are picking up more than one camper, and those campers have different drive-through times, you can pick all of your campers up in the later assigned time slot. We will confirm this logistic at check-in on the first day of camp. Curbside pickup is available at our Walnut Street drive-through for Basketball from 3:40 – 4:00 pm and Mix It Up from 4:00 – 4:15 pm.
If you have not picked up your camper by the end of your pick-up time, your child will be taken to the office where they will wait while we try to reach you.
