Dear Explorer Camp Families, Thank you for choosing Germantown Academy’s Explorer Camp. Please be sure to check the Day Camp website for each week’s daily schedule as the schedule changes every week. All waivers need to be signed and returned to Summer Programs by June 14th. We are having each family sign all the waivers even if they are not scheduled for that event because of changes in weather, group size, time adjustments etc. If waivers are not turned in, your child will not be able to join us on the day’s trip. Please check the website for important announcements and reminders such as arrival and pickup times. It is our intention to stay with the schedule but in the event of inclement weather, we will shift activities to accommodate the weather. While each day’s activities are different, there is some generic information that will help you to prepare for most activities. Each camper should have with them: • Sunscreen • Lunch and Snacks
• Insect Repellent • Two Water Bottles
• Backpack
• Hat & Rain Gear*
*A water-proof jacket is helpful when biking Note: A cooler will be available to store lunches and drinks. Pick-up time will vary each day. It will generally be around 4:30PM, but there will be some variability due to traffic, the speed of the rivers for tubing and rafting, and the amount of time required for each camper to complete an activity when biking. At the conclusion of each day’s activity, the director will pass a cell phone among the campers and ask that they contact their ride to alert them to the expected arrival time. On each day of camp please give your camper the phone number that you want used to contact you. In the event that you are unable to pick your child up at this time, extended day is available and you can arrange to pick up your child there. Regards, Daniel Stahl
