This summer’s theme is Tales of Wonder, which will focus on the art of storytelling. Weekly themes will be based on the fun and often outlandish story for the week, featuring stories like: “Adventure on the High Seas”, “The Future All-Star”, and more! Each week will feature one exciting field trip, one fun onsite special activity, and a can’t miss spirit day. Weekly camp tuition will include all of that plus a pizza lunch every Friday! The camp activity day is from 9:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m. With free extended care from 7:00 a.m. – 6:00 p.m.
Summer camp runs weekly from June 5 – July 28. You can sign up for the whole summer or just a few weeks (a minimum of 3 weeks is required this summer). For more information about Camp CUBBER, including information about their field trips and special activities, please visit the camp’s website at www.cubber.org.
Safety Reminder– Please remember to hold your child’s hand when walking to and from the parking lot. The parking lot is very busy at drop-off and pick-up times. Please do not linger in the parking lot area, flower beds or patio at pick-up time, as this is not a safe play area. Perhaps a nearby park would be a better option.
