Outdoor Time & Weather
Outdoor play is an important part of our program, and campers spend time outside every day.
We closely monitor weather conditions and make thoughtful decisions based on safety and comfort. Light rain, cooler temperatures, and typical summer weather do not automatically keep us indoors.
In cases of heavy rain, thunderstorms, extreme heat, or unsafe conditions, we move activities indoors and adjust the day as needed.
Children should come dressed for outdoor play each day.
