Camp Central is a drop-off program for children between 2–5 years old. Younger children, including children not yet enrolled in nursery school are encouraged to check out Central Tots programming.

Camp Central begins on June 20 and runs through August 5 for a total of seven weeks. Camp will be closed on July 4 in celebration of Independence Day.

No. You may choose to register for the weeks that best suit your family’s schedule, but you must register for at least three weeks.

Families who want to register for a sold out week will be added to a waitlist.

After registration closes, you will receive an invitation to fill out your child’s profile via CampDocs. All forms must be submitted by June 1.

We do not offer refunds for camp registration fees.

Campers will volunteer for a week to bring in a healthy snack. When selecting a snack, please note our allergy policy. If you are unsure of a snack being safe for your child’s bunk, please check with your counselors. Full day campers are responsible for bringing their own non-refrigerated lunch.

Campers should arrive wearing sunscreen, a swimsuit, and water shoes. Flip flops and backless shoes are not allowed. Please send a hat, towel, sunscreen, water bottle, and a change of clothing each day to change into after water play.

Additionally, each camper needs to have a change of clothing kept at camp as a backup. Please provide one spare of the following items that will be stored in your child’s cubby: shirt, shorts, socks, shoes, diapers/underwear, and a plastic bag for wet clothes. Please make sure that all clothing items are clearly labeled.

Campers should wear their camp shirts on the first day of camp and every Friday.

We know many of you have questions about exactly what camp will look like and the answer is, we don’t know. What we do know is that we will continue our best practices around safety and health that we have in place for the Nursery School and we will continually communicate with you as more information becomes available. We also know that camp will be full of fun, play, and learning together with wonderful counselors and friends.

We will not have swim this summer, as pools are currently closed and we do not believe that we will be able to have a swim program that meets all of our safety standards. We hope to bring back swim in summer 2023.

When camp is not in session, please email all Camp Central inquiries to [email protected].

Many parents have daily contact with their children’s counselors at arrival or dismissal and have the opportunity to ask brief questions or discuss their child’s experience. However, for a longer conversation or questions that should not be discussed in front of children, and for those parents who do not come to camp with their children on a regular basis, it is best to contact counselors via email. Each bunk has its own email address that is [email protected] For example, the email address for the Sunflowers Bunk is [email protected]

We love celebrating birthdays at camp! Check with your counselors to arrange a convenient time to join us virtually. Birthday parties generally last 20 to 30 minutes, and we ask that you keep it simple: bring your family, a candle and a small birthday treat for everyone in the class (small cupcakes, cookies, muffins, fruit, or ice cream cups). Please do not bring decorations or party hats or noisemakers. We will provide the plates, cups, napkins, and drinks. Please check with your counselors to ensure that snacks brought into your bunk are safe for all campers.

We are a peanut and tree nut sensitive camp. Please do not send any foods to camp that contain peanuts or tree nuts, including, but not limited to: peanuts, tree nuts, peanut butter, baked goods containing peanuts or tree nuts, granola bars, and foods containing nut sauces or flavoring. Please note that because our building is a multi-use facility, the camp cannot guarantee to parents or guardians of campers with peanut or tree nut allergies that such campers will not come into contact with peanuts or tree nut products while at camp.
