Not only will ePACT replace paper forms, but it will also ensure we have a way to communicate with you in the event of illness, injury, or larger scale emergency. The parent/guardian listed as the main contact will receive an email, following registration, with directions and a link to complete all required forms through the ePACT Network. The ePACT information must be completed before your child's first day of Day Camp. WHAT TO BRING TO CAMP Participants should bring a sack lunch, water bottle, sunscreen, swimsuit and a towel to camp every day. Even on days when camp does not go to the pool, we ask campers to bring their swimsuit in the event water games are planned to keep campers cool! Campers should wear their dedicated Field Trip shirt every Wednesday. Replacement shirts can be purchased on site for $5, cash only. Every year, the Day Camp lost and found gets very large. Please label your child's belongings with their name to make returning items easier. Every Friday evening at closing, all unclaimed lost and found items will be discarded. Items found on Friday at camp will be saved until Monday. SUNRISE & SUNSET CAMP Sunrise and Sunset Camp is for campers who need to be dropped off or picked up outside of the normal 9:00 am - 4:00 pm camp hours. Sunrise Camp begins as early as 7:00 am and Sunset Camp stays open as late as 6:00 pm. If you require your child to be at camp more than 15 minutes before or after the designated 9:00 am - 4:00 pm camp time, you must register them for sunrise or sunset camp. FIELD TRIPS Day Camp will have an on-site or off-site field trip every Wednesday and all campers attending on a Wednesday must go on the field trip. Campers must be at camp by 9:00 am on off-site field trip days. Field trip permission slips will be accessible on our ePACT system and need to be completed prior to the camper's first day of camp. If additional waivers are required for certain field trips, they will be made available on site. Teen Camp will go on field trips on Monday, Tuesday and Friday. POOL DAYS Day Camp will swim on Monday, Thursday and Friday from 11:30 am - 1:30 pm. On swim days, please send your camper to camp in their swimsuit so that we can get to the pool quickly. Please pack dry clothes for your child to change into after the pool. For the safety of your child, parents are asked to indicate their camper's swim level and area of the pool they are allowed in. Campers are then given color-coded wristbands that indicate where in the pool they are allowed. Swim level indication can be found in ePACT when filling out your child's emergency information. Any child listed as a yellow or green wristband will be swim tested their first day to ensure their swimming ability is correct. A swim test consists of swimming one length of the pool without touching the bottom or utilizing the sides. Staff reserve the right to lower a child's swim level. Wristband Color Designations: Red: Non-swimmer or novice, only allowed in the zero-depth up to the whirlpool. Yellow: Intermediate swimmer, allowed in Dolphin Cove lap pool, Sidewinder and Pipeline (slides with a significant current upon exiting). Green: Advanced swimmers, allowed in all areas of the pool including the diving well, and Wipeout (bowl slide which drops into deep water). DAY CAMP SWIM LESSONS Swim lessons are available to Lombard Day Camp participants at a discounted rate. Campers must be enrolled in day camp on the day of the lesson in order to qualify for thee discounted swim lessons. Swim lessons will be held at Paradise Bay Water Park. SUMMER 2023
