CAMP GONZAGA
TUESDAY, JUNE 1 – THURSDAY, AUGUST 12, 2010

Welcome to “Simon Says” Camp Gonzaga! We are very anxious to get started with our summer camp. The Staff has planned many fun-filled activities for the session. We look forward to entertaining your child, keeping them busy and happy in a safe atmosphere! The attached information needs to be read over carefully (there are changes from last year’s camp), and all paperwork needs to be completed and fee’s need to be paid by April 9. You are required to attend an Orientation on the Summer Program on Thursday May 20, 7:00 p.m. in the Latchkey Room.

GENERAL INFORMATION

PLACE: The Latchkey Room and the connected Dominican Room 7:00 a.m.-6:00 p.m. The front entrance to school is not to be used. The program is designed for children ages 6-12.

COST: The program is $30 a day for parishioners and $32 a day for non-parishioners. You need to register for a minimum of two days a week. The center will be closed Monday 7/5 to honor the July 4th Holiday and 8/13 due to a Staff Work Day. There is absolutely no prorating for any reason. We are honoring no vacation time or sick leave. Whatever days you sign your child up for, you are responsible to pay, from your start date to your stop date in FULL WEEKS. If you choose to pull out before your stop date, you are required to pay the fees up through that date. These policies have to be enforced for organizational reasons and for the safety of your children. Weekly payments are due the 1st day of the week your child comes to camp.

FEES: There is a $30 Registration Fee (per family) along with a $125 Activity Fee per family for parishioners and $150 per family for non-parishioners. Families with more than one child attending FULL-TIME ONLY are given a 10% discount on the second child’s TUITION for the summer. The days that you pick to attend have to remain the same every week. All children are required to purchase a “Camp Gonzaga” T-shirt for $12.00 (they will be required to wear these on Field Trip Days.) These fees along with your tuition for the first week and your completed paperwork are all due by April 9.

MEALS: Breakfast (variety of healthy cereals), A.M. Snack (fruit), and P.M. Snack are provided. Your child is required to bring a sack lunch for the days that they are attending the program. We will supply the milk. All lunches are to be brought in a thermal type sack (due to limited refrigeration space) with your child’s name clearly marked on it.
