Summer FAQs
Q: How do I register my child?
A: Visit the Summer.ProvidenceDay.org website and click on REGISTER NOW!
Q: How old does my child need to be to attend?
A: We welcome children who are at least four years old by June 5, 2023.
Q: What are your camp hours?

Q: Does my child need a physical exam or record of immunizations to attend?

Q: Do you offer extended camp hours?
Times may change, but the power of play is timeless.
For nearly 30 years, Providence Day has helped children grow powerful through summer camp opportunities in sports, academics, art, technology, and more.
Our camp staff includes many well–loved PD teachers and coaches as well as trusted camp partners such as CreativeKids and SmArt Educational Art. With individualized attention and unflagging enthusiasm, they will make sure your child discovers the joys of summer camp in a safe, inclusive environment. Choose from half-day or full-day options that suit your family’s schedule, then leave the rest to us!
A: Our Extended Care program operates for two hours both before and after camp for busy families. In addition, kids with one half-day camp are welcome to join us for lunch. Additional fees apply; more information is available on page 6.
Q: What is your refund policy?
A: Refunds are available up to 14 days prior to the start of camp; a $50 administration fee will be charged for any refunds.
Q: Do you have a registration deadline?
A: Online registration closes three days prior to the start of each camp session. Walk-in registration is available on the first day of camp only; a $50 administration fee applies for each late registration.

CAMP SCHEDULE
We offer nine sessions of programming beginning June 5, 2023. You can choose morning, afternoon, or fullday camps, or mix and match half-day camps to create an all–day adventure.
The following pages list our camps alphabetically. We’ve included all the details at a glance — dates, times, rising grade levels, and prices. We’ve indicated our NEW programs, too, for campers who are ready for something fresh. Carpool drop-off and pick-up zones will be sent to families just before camp begins. For camp descriptions, our summer website is your best resource. Each camp listing includes a detail page including what to bring to camp as well as a bio of the camp director.

CAMPUS IMPROVEMENTS
The beautiful facilities that make up the Providence Day campus are the result of generous donors who believe in our school’s future. Fortunately, our summer campers also benefit from their philanthropy.
Renovations completed in the past year to our McMahon Fine Arts Center include an expanded Brinkley Dining Hall that will allow all campers to enjoy their snacks and lunch in a cool and comfortable environment. In addition, the new patio provides a flexible space for a multitude of camp activities, such as water play for Camp Spirit and Charger Chill.
Extensive renovations to the Dickson-Hemby Technology Center have created state-of-the-art facilities where campers can flex their logic muscles, exercise their problem–solving skills, and apply their knowledge in hands–on activities.
As we look to the future, we can expect additional construction projects around campus that will offer campers space to grow strong physically, emotionally, and socially.
