The City of St. Louis Recreation Division is excited to announce registration for summer day camps is now open! COVID-19 has affected all us and has forced us to make changes to our traditional summer camp set up. Before you begin the registration process, please read carefully.
GENERAL CAMP INFORMATION
We will limit the number of total campers. In order to give everyone a chance to participate in camp, we will run 2, 4-week sessions.
The camp sessions are;
· Session 1 – June 7th thru July 2nd
· Session 2 – July 5th thru July 30th
·
Registration will officially close at 11:30pm, on Tuesday evening, April 20th.
You will be contacted by 5pm on Monday, May 3rd notifying you via email with what sessions your camper has been approved for.
Registering DOES NOT GUARANTEE a spot in any or all the weeks available for day camp.
Maximum number of slots available will be determined by staff availability.
Camper Ages…6-12 years old
Campers must be a City resident to attend day camps.
Upon arrival to the center, you will be directed where to drop off your camper in a “drive-thru” fashion.
When you pull up to the building, camp staff will greet you and your camper.
The temperature of the camper will be taken, and if it registers above 100.4°F, they will not be allowed to participate in camp that day. If the camper is denied entry into camp, we may require a doctor’s note before they could return to camp.
From there, all campers will be assigned to a group of 10. This will include 8 other campers, and 2 camp staff. All activities will be designed to keep campers 6ft apart as to adhere to social distancing requirements. As weather permits, camp staff is encouraged to have activities outside as much as possible.
Campers 9yrs of age and older will be required to wear masks when doing activities indoors. Masks will be provided.
Campers will be guided on following all social distancing requirements, as well as be instructed as to when to wash their hands.
Breakfast and lunch will be provided every day. Outside food will NOT be allowed to be brought into the building without permission of the camp director.
There will be dedicated staff members whose main responsibility it will be to clean and sanitize rooms and common areas as groups of campers move through the building.
All staff will be required to wear masks, and gloves when appropriate.
