Campers will visit 4 stations throughout each session. Each rotation lasts 30 minutes. Camper attendance is monitored and recorded at each station. Rotations include:

• Observe: Lesson time! Campers learn about the topic of the day & take notes in their Camp Journal. The lesson is often followed by a short video & will include DISCUSSION TOPICS. This station is for SITTING & LEARNING.

• Create: ARTS & CRAFTS! Campers create a fun, expressive reflection of the week’s topic to be included in their Camp Journal. This station is MESSY. Campers will get their hands wet, sticky, and/or paint-covered!

• Discover: Anything goes! In the Discover station, Campers may play an OUTDOOR GAME, conduct an EXPERIMENT, create an extra CRAFT, and meet ANIMALS on Wild Wednesdays. This station will get LOUD & MESSY.

• Snack: Campers receive a boost of energy from a SMALL SNACK that we provide. PLEASE SEND a safe snack if your child has specific dietary needs. Your child may also bring a specific snack that they prefer. This station IS NOT LUNCH.

Campers will earn Rewards Stamps at each station by participating, answering review questions, completing projects, tidying up after themselves, and going the extra mile to help a peer or Counselor. Stamps are currency at our AFSC Programs Prize Shop! Camp Stamps may be spent at our Prize Shop ONLY during play periods, never at drop-off or during Lunch or Camp station rotations.

During Play rotations, Campers will go outside for 30-minute supervised free play and may also spend their Rewards Stamps. Campers measuring 48” or taller may use this time to ride our Zipline if they have signed up for the Zipline add-on*

CAMPERS WHO ARE PICKED UP EARLY MAY MISS OUTDOOR PLAY ROTATIONS, PRIZE SHOP OPPORTUNITIES, AND ZIPLINE OPPORTUNITIES. THE ZIPLINE IS NOT AVAILABLE TO CAMPERS AT ANY OTHER TIME DURING THE DAY.

• *Due to increasing operation & insurance costs, the Zipline feature will be an ADD-ON OPTION for Camps. The Zipline add-on will cost $10 per week, per Camper. If you sign our Zipline waiver and your child rides the Zipline, you will be charged the $10 fee even if you do not select the Zipline option when registering. A zipline release form can be found here.
