Welcome to Summer Camp 2025

Welcome to LGCS Summer Camp!  We look forward to a fun-filled summer with your children.  Below are some things to know about camp.  

Please label anything from home.  LGCS has collected bins full of clothing, towels and shoes that were not labeled in the past.  

• Backpack: All campers should have a backpack to hold their gear for the day.  Backpacks will be kept at your child's home "campsite" during the day.  
• Bug Spray & Sunscreen: Please put this on your child before you drop them off in the morning. Note: we cannot apply this at camp. 
• Water Clothes: We will have water activities throughout the summer when the weather permits. Campers should bring a swimsuit, towel, extra socks, extra underwear, and optional water shoes with them each day.
• Extra Clothes:  Campers should have an extra change of clothes.  All clothes, shoes, and towels should be labeled.  All campers should bring a towel with them everyday to sit on for snack and lunch.
• Shoes: Close-toed gym shoes are preferred on the playground. The children are required to wear socks inside. Please label shoes. Each year we have several campers with the same shoes.  Flip flops or sandals are discouraged as they do not provide support for active play.  For safety, only children wearing gym shoes will be allowed to climb on playground equipment and the ninja warrior course. 
• Lunches: If your child is staying for lunch, please pack a cold lunch box or sack lunch of your child. Many families pack an ice/cold pack in their lunch to keep it cool and fresh.
• Snacks & Water Bottle: Please send your child to camp with a snack, lunch and at least 1 labeled, full water bottle for your child each day.
• Paper Towels:  Each family is asked to send a bulk pack of multi-size paper towels.  We are always washing our hands during the summer. 
• Garden Gloves (Optional):  Each group will be responsible for their own garden.  You are welcome to send labeled garden gloves in their bags each day.  Some children will love and use them and others may not.  It is completely optional.
• Parent Portal:  If you are a new family, you will be receiving an invitation shortly to our Parent Portal on Procare.  Parent Updates and Tuition Statements may be found here.  This will give you access to child updates, pictures, family profiles, and billing information.  There is an option to upload a photo of your child, parents and contacts that may be picking up your child.  This is especially helpful as we get to know new families.  
• New Families Additional Required Forms:  Birth Certificate, Parent Handbook Confirmation Signature, and Heath Forms including Vaccination, Immunization Records and LGCS Pledge must be uploaded to the Parent Portal before the first day of camp. 
• Parent Handbook Confirmation: This will be emailed to families next week. Please confirm that you have received and read this.
