CAMPUS KIDS —
SESSION I OR II (AGE 6)
Friendly Froglets program will allow our little ones the opportunity
to play constructively, learn the importance of socialization, sharing
and cooperation and allow them to
adjust to new environments and becoming more independent. Campers will follow a daily schedule
which will enable them to be active
and to enjoy the same great fun as
the older campers, but at a more
relaxed pace.
CAMPUS KIDS —
SESSION I OR II (AGES 7-13)
Camp College offers your child
an enriching alternative to the
traditional summer day camp.
Campers combine study in a variety of stimulating subject areas

55 minutes daily for all four weeks
of each session.

All children ages 6-13 on September 30, 2016 are eligible. For one
week programs up to age 15, refer

than 7:15am or remain on
campus after 6pm.
WHEN IS IT?
Session I: June 27-July 22
(FOUR weeks; four or five days
per week) Monday-Thursday or

“Friendly Froglets” Program
Our 6-year old program is designed to specifically meet the needs of our youngest campers.
Their day will be similar to that of the school year day allowing the teachers more freedom in
their lessons. Under constant, careful supervision of experienced and certified instructors and our
trained camp counselors, our Friendly Froglets will be encouraged to participate in a wide range
of multi-cultural activities, arts and crafts, outdoor sports, reading, science, math and many other
organized activities. The limited number of campers in each group allows the teachers to give
much needed individualized attention to each child.
This program allows our little ones the opportunity to play constructively, learn the importance
of socialization, sharing and cooperation and allow them to adjust to new environments and becoming more independent. Campers will follow a daily schedule which will enable them to be
active and to enjoy the same great fun as the older campers, but at a more relaxed pace.
Beginner Swim is an option for our 6-yr-olds. IT IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE
FRIENDLY FROGLETS PROGRAM – YOU MUST PLACE A CHECK IN THE BOX IF
YOUR CHILD IS INTERESTED. Instructional swim lessons will run for 45 minutes from
12:15 to 1pm. Please select the box if you would like your child to participate. Please remember
to have your child bring a towel and swimsuit.

Camp College
OUR MISSION
Camp College provides the finest camp experience for children, an experience that
will be remembered for a lifetime. Committed to quality and excellence in every
aspect of the summer experience, Camp College carefully designs programs and activities, maintains a dedicated and experienced staff, and provides a caring and safe
environment with state-of-the-art facilities. With an emphasis on hands-on activities
and fun, children have the opportunity to achieve, gain self-esteem and confidence,
explore new interests and develop lifelong memories and friendships.
OUR CODE OF BEHAVIOR
Our camper code of behavior is designed to create an environment that allows
campers to learn, teachers to teach, and our camp administrators and counselors
to facilitate the instruction. We believe that good discipline at camp is essential to
the safety and well being of everyone. We also believe that the basic goals of our
programs include the promotion of courteous conduct, consideration toward other
people, and respect for the rights of everyone.
With the full cooperation of parents or guardians, we look forward to an exciting,
safe summer in which our campers respect rules and regulations. College is in session and administrative offices are open for business, so it’s especially important
that campers show respect for others and demonstrate appropriate behavior and
language. Our staff always uses positive techniques to guide behavior, but disruptive activities cannot be tolerated and will be subject to the following disciplinary
actions:
•
1st incident -verbal warning and parental notification.
•
2nd incident - a two-day suspension from camp. The
director may require a parent conference before
continued attendance is permitted.
•
3rd incident or at the discretion of the director - expulsion from Camp College, Before and After-Camp care, any programs, trips or activities associated with Camp College.
No refunds are issued for suspension or expulsion. On the first day of camp, participants and staff will review expected behavior at camp. Parents are expected to discuss this information with their child and return a signed agreement with their completed application. No camper will be admitted without a
signed agreement.

Camp College Comments
My two girls are enrolled in the 2nd session
of Camp College. They are 9 and 11, so I
have had a chance to sample plenty of camps
in the past years; however, I did not expect to
be so thrilled by your operation. My 11 year
old actually did voluntary homework over the
weekend to prepare her piece for her debate
class. She was so excited this morning “Wish
me luck Mom” is what she said when she left
my car. This is just a fabulous confidence
builder for her entry into Middle School in
September. My 9 year old is also having a ball
with the swimming, campfire and meeting new
friends. Your staff is also amazing. Seriously,
they open the door to help the campers out of
the car in the morning and tell you to have a
good day. I feel like I have to pinch myself.
Worth every penny! My only regret is that I
didn’t hook them up at MCCC a couple years
ago. Thanks.
Christine Donahue
I wanted to express my appreciation to the
entire staff at Camp College for my son’s third
year at camp. The first year Nick attended, the
place seemed so huge to me and although he
was thrilled, I was a little apprehensive. Now,
he’s like a regular college student, knows where
everything is and who everybody is. Your staff
is wonderful. Natola was so nice when I came
into the camp office one morning to let them
know that my father-in-law had passed away
the previous night and could the staff keep an
eye on Nick. The CIT’s at the drop -ff circle
are so nice, some days their “good morning”
and “have a nice day” might be the nicest I
hear while I deal 8 hours with the public on
the phone. It is so comforting to have a CIT
open my car door and greet my son by name.
Anthony V. knows every parent and is always
there with a nice greeting every day. I just
wanted to give a thank you to the camp college
staff for making our family happy campers. ☺
Laura Canavera
Being a CIT is a great opportunity to gain
valuable job skills, make friends and still manage to enjoy your summer. I loved working
with the kids. I felt like I was having as much
fun as they were.
Dan Zeitler
I would like to tell you that I had so much fun
and I will return every year. The teachers and
counselors were friendly, helpful and I learned
a lot! What I enjoyed most was the activities
and making new friends.
Monique Bergeron-Camper
My son, Prem attended the highly acclaimed
camp for the first time last summer. We were
a little apprehensive at first since we did not
know what to expect and it being his first
camp. I wasn't sure if he was going to like it
especially since he was going to spend about
10 hours a day for 6 weeks. For the sake of
variety, we tried both the Specialty and Campus Kids. We were very happy with the overall
experience to say the least. The camp counselors were very experienced and knew just how
to make Prem feel comfortable in his “new
summer home”. They went out of their way to
provide updates to me on how he was doing. I
was always able to reach them and they were
very responsive. I could see that they really
cared and we will definitely be back again.
Great job Camp College!

Camp College proved to be a true hit with my
six year old's first experience with summer
camp. I found the organization of the program
very impressive and how they were able to
move the children from one course to the next.
My daughter enjoyed the well-thought-out
courses and most of all, the enthusiasm and
care of the counselors.

I would like to say how much my son enjoys
your camps, and how much I enjoy them. I
leave days with peace of mind knowing he
will be well looked after and having a ball.
I especially like the specialty camp programs.
I find them to be educational as well as fun.

Matthew had a great experience with Camp
College. This was his first camp experience and
we were amazed with how easy it was for him
to adjust to camp life. He loved his classes and
counselors. Matthew wanted to stay at Camp
College year round! He can't wait to come back
this year!

The dance classes at Camp College are great.
Stephanie, the teacher, and Emily, her counselor are perfect. There are two dance classes
Hip Hop and Dance, Dance, Dance. They also
instruct Musical Theater. Last summer we
performed Honey Bun from the musical South
Pacific. It is always fun to sing, dance and act
with Stephanie, Emily and your friends.
