Portland Parks & Recreation Winter Break Camps @ MDCC We ask that campers wear comfortable shoes & clothing each day as they will be active. Each camper should bring a healthy lunch, 2 healthy snacks, swimsuit, towel, water bottle. Drop-off & pick-up will be in the game room each day. For your child’s safety, parents/guardians are required to sign their child in at the beginning of each day and sign them out at the end of the day. This is a great opportunity to check in with counselors about what is happening for the day and also double checking that everything went smoothly during the day. Please allow an extra 10 or 15 minutes on the first day, to complete a Camper Registration Form.

We spend our days engaged in active, creative, and social activities that involve very little or no screen time.

Payment is due prior to the camp start date.

You may pay the entire balance at the time of registration, or you can pay a down payment of $10 per week and schedule your payments to be due Monday prior to the camp’s start date.

Structure & Variety

We include a variety of activities to keep young minds and bodies active and challenged. Free choice and relaxation time provides a chance to enjoy low-key activities between more in-depth, structured projects and games. All children are encouraged to participate, but never forced. Field trips to natural areas, recreation sites, and cultural centers are fun learning experiences. We create an environment that is structured and supportive, but also fun and flexible.

Registration

Camps fill quickly, so register early. If you need to withdraw, a full refund will only be issued if the notice is given by Wednesday prior to the camp start date. Withdrawals made less than three days in advance will be assessed a $15 withdrawal fee.

Withdrawals made during the week will be prorated.

Staff & Safety

Safety is our number one priority. We hire highly skilled, energetic, and caring people who truly love working with children. All of our staff are First Aid and CPR certified, and must pass a background check.

Early Risers!
