One field trip or special event is included per session. Campers will be divided into groups according to age.

Campers must provide their own lunch, 2 snacks, water and transportation to and from camp. Participants must be in grades 1-6, or ages 6-12, during the 2017-2018 school year. There will be no swimming lessons included in the camp day this summer. However, an optional swimming lesson can be added on. Please see below for more details.

Fee: $165/camper per session. Swimming lessons can be added on for $15 - there is a max of 20 campers for the camp lessons, so you must register early. Please see detailed notes below.

Registration for camps closes Sunday evenings at 8:00pm a week before a camp session is set to begin. This allows us time to put together groups. Please register accordingly.

Group information will be available on www.simsburyrec.com by the Wednesday before a session begins. Please check there to see which group your child will be in.

NO INFORMATION WILL BE MAILED OUT THIS SUMMER.
