What are the age groups for the campers?

We have three age groups. As of June 2011, 

• Voyagers are children who have completed kindergarten through 1st grade.
• Trailblazers are children who have completed 2nd grade through 3rd grade.
• Pathfinders are children who have completed 4th grade through 5th grade.

 

 I have a camper who is a sibling of a returning camper, when do I register that sibling?

Siblings of returning campers can register on the same date as the returning camper. Returning campers and sibling may register online beginning March 10, 2011 starting at 6:00 p.m. Siblings will need a R-Number (Rollins ID Number). To request an R-number please fill out the R-number Request Form as soon as possible. Please allow 24 hours for your request to be processed. To retrieve your returning campers R-number click here.

 

Can I register prior to the published registration date?

The system is blocked from receiving registrations prior to the published date and time. Attempting to register prior to the published time will delay your registration process. ** Please note that the registration web site is best accessed using Internet Explorer.

How does the online registration process work?

Select the courses your camper would like to attend. Make sure you choose two alternate courses per time slot. This will expedite the registration process. Visit the Summer Day Camp Web site on the appropriate date and click on the Registration Information link. You will need your campers Rollins identification number (R-number) and password (6-digit date of birth, MMDDYY). You will need to know the course reference number (CRN) for the courses you would like your camper to attend. The CRN number is located under the A/B columns on the Summer Camp schedule. Courses will be removed as they are filled to capacity.

 

How do I register in person?

Registration may be done online (see the How to Register page) or in person at the Summer Camp Administration Office, located at 422 W. Fairbanks Avenue, Winter Park, FL 32789. Computer stations will be set up for parents/guardians wishing to register their camper in-person on their registration date. Office hours for in-person online registration are:

• Thursday, March 10th from 6:00 p.m.to 7:00 p.m. for returning campers and siblings
• Monday, March 14th from 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. for new campers.

The average ratio is 12 to 1.

 

Can my camper bring lunch?

Lunch is included in the cost of tuition; however, your child is welcomed to bring his/her own lunch and healthy snacks.

 

Will my camper have a locker?

The College does not supply lockers. Backpacks are the perfect accessory for your camper. However, we do ask parents to make sure that the backpacks are not over loaded or too heavy for the camper.

 

Can I visit my camper during the day?

Yes. Arrangements must be made in advance, please check in at Camp Base to receive your visitor badge. (Note: The location of Camp Base will posted prior to the start of Camp.)
