We do not offer a hot lunch program during the summer session, so please pack a lunch for your child. Don't forget to pack freezer blocks to keep it all cold. If your child is in big camp (5 years and up) you may want to freeze their juice boxes so they will be nice and cold by lunch time.

REPORT: SUMMER CAMP 2002

The first half of summer camp has passed and we are having such a great time! We started off with a bang on the first week... and we are still going strong!

First Week:
The first week of camp the big camp took part in making endangered species signs and recycling bins around the camp.
Little camp made monkey puppets and torn paper collages.

Second Week:
The second week everyone tried their hand at archery at our sports time with the coach.
Real Indians also came to visit!

Third Week:
The third week we had a giant inflatable wall-climb.

Fourth Week:
Carnival crusade week was filled with games and prizes!

The first half of Summer Camp is never complete without a few "oops" to start everything off:

  • Lost towels (Oops... no name!)

  • Lost underwear (Now, where did they go?)

  • Lost lunch box (We fed them.)

  • Very dirty, happy and tired kids going home (wait, that's pretty normal.)

  • So, what do you do with one earplug.

Don't forget, bedtime might need to be a little early this summer.

SKATING FIELD TRIPS

Skating dude cartoonSkating field trips are for all children 5 years and older. We have a charter bus that picks up at 9:00 a.m. sharp and drops the children back off at around 12:30 p.m.

The field trip cost is $5.00, and includes skate rental, admission, and the bus ride.

Don't forget to wear your GREEN Circle "C" t-shirt.

If you have any questions or concerns about the skating field trip please contact the office.

WELCOME NEW FAMILIES

We hope your summer camp experience is a great one! We want to encourage everyone to make sure every child's name is on all of their clothing and lunches. If you are missing anything, please check the big box located in front of the driveway area for your lost items. If your child's name is written on their items they will be returned much faster and if your child comes home with an item you do not recognize, please return it and we will try to find the right owner.

As a quick reminder, we close at 6:00 p.m. - sharp! There is a $1.00 per minute charge for picking up after 6:00 p.m.

We are looking forward to taking part in your child's summer!

WE NEED RECYCLED ITEMS

Ms. Patty needs art stuff from home. We can always use toilet paper rolls, 2-liter bottles, gallon jugs, old buttons, etc.

If you have any of these items at home or if you would like to recycle them to us, please bring them in and give to Ms. Patty, Tracy, or Sonya.

We can't wait to see what kind of projects Ms. Patty has in mind for all of these recycled products!
