  DROP OFF AND PICK UP TIMES: 

  Drop off time is between 8:00-8:30.  Pick up time is between 2:30-3:00. If you are more than 15 minutes late in picking up your camper, you will be charged a $5 late fee and an additional $5 for every additional 5 minutes you are late. If you would like to pick your child up early or drop them off late, we can be flexible with those arrangements. 

  
  

  DROP OFF/PICK UP POLICY: We ask that you walk your camper inside each morning to drop them off, and come inside to pick them up each afternoon. Anyone picking up a camper other than a parent/guardian needs to be authorized in writing ahead of time by the parent/guardian. 

  
  

  PAYMENT: Payment for each week is due at the time of registration. Your camper will not have a secured spot at camp until payment has been made in full. 

  
  

   EMERGENCY CARD/WAIVERS: Campers cannot attend camp until the parent/guardians has filled out the attached emergency information, permission slips, and liability waivers. These forms included in the packet will also be available the first time you drop your camper off. You may bring the forms to camp the first day, or mail them in ahead of time 

  
  

  AUTHORIZATION TO ADMINISTER PRESCRIPTION MEDICATION: Medication can be administered only with written permission. All medical forms must be filled out, before any medication can be administered. Medication forms are available at camp, or can be sent through email. 

  
  

  WHAT TO BRING TO CAMP: Campers should bring sunscreen with their name on it, clothes that may get wet/dirty, and athletic shoes. If the camper does not have athletic shoes to wear they may not be able to enter the gymnasium area. It is also recommended that campers bring with them a water bottle, snacks, extra shoes/sandals and a change of clothes. For water days, campers should bring a  swimsuit and a towel. Certain activities  may require students to bring additional items with them to camp which will be communicated to you through our website, email, or a note home. 

  
  

   LUNCHES/SNACKS: Delmarva Christian  does not provide lunch,  bringing a sack lunch with an ice pack is recommended. We will provide a snack for the campers each afternoon but we recommend that you pack a snack for the campers to eat during our morning break time.

  
  

  * Due to some severe allergies,  we request that you please make summer camp a  peanut free zone. 

  
  CANCELLATION /REFUND POLICY: Delmarva Christian Summer Camp  requires a two week notice on any cancellations in order to receive a refund of payment. This policy is to allow us adequate time to contact families with campers on the waiting list, and make informed decisions regarding weekly supplies and counselor work schedules. We can try to accommodate families who would like to change their dates as long as there is availability on the dates they would like to change
