Who's Line Is It Anyway?
X-Games Roller Blade


Does your kid have a BMX bike and helmet? Do they crave the
rush of speed and adrenalin? Are they making jumps and
ramps around the neighborhood? Well it’s time for the first
annual Tour de Yard! On Monday and Tuesday, a different
course will be mapped out using the whole 10-acre facility.

These different course layouts will include jumps and ramps
that will prepare racers for off-site racing on Wednesday and
Thursday. Racers, and their bikes, will be transported to the
Waterford Oaks BMX Track, the site of the Great Lakes
National BMX Race in August. Friday’s race at OYA will
challenge the campers not only physically, but also mentally,
as they’ll need to incorporate all of the week’s obstacles into
the race.Races will be in the team form and in a singles
format. Who will wear the yellow jersey during lunch on
Friday?

Cross-training activities that will keep the racers sharp
throughout the week include the ropes course and lacrosse.
Both of these team building activities will help to challenge and
build up the strength and endurance of the campers.

This camp is open to
boys and girls ages 8 to 12
.

Space is limited to 12 campers per session. Bikes and all protective equipment can be stored safely at OYA for the week. Camp
includes the camp wide pizza lunch on Friday.

What's What at OYA
Oakland Yard Summer Camps is continuing our passport program to ensure that we are a leader in safety by providing a worry free place for parents to leave their children. To accomplish this, we will continue to issue camper passports to all campers. In addition to our passport security measure, we will ask that you park your car and come into our gated-area each day to drop off and pick up your child.

How It Works: Campers will use their passport on a daily basis to check in with their counselors. Counselors will use this passport and the information contained therein as a quick reference for attendance and emeregency information.
Upon receipt of your child's passport, we request that you fill in the required information with a pencil.
Campers passports will be returned to each them at the end of the day when their parent checks them out.

There is a one time passport fee of $10 per child. This passport will never expire, it just needs to be updated with your childs current photo each year.

Parents who want to pre-purchase ice cream and candy credits for campers can do so for any amount they desire.

Why do this? It allows kids to have treat without carrying around cash. Our counselors will keep the passports in a safe place during the day then at noon and a predetermined time during lunch club and working parent the campers can redeem their credits for candy or ice cream.

All ice cream and candy costs $1
Oakland Yard is once again offering transportation to and from our off-site camps for a nominal fee.

To take advantage of transportation, kids need to be enrolled in either the Breakfast Club or Lunch Club.

As overnight campers, we loved getting care packages from mom and dad. Our day campers can experience the same thrill with our OYA Mail Call. We have our own offical mailbox for you to deposit letters and care packages into when you drop them off in the morning.

We will have Mail Call on Wednesday during Lunch Club, if your child is not in Lunch Club we will deliver the package on Thursday morning.
In the event of rain, Oaklad Yard campers will participate in an indoor field day inside the dome. Campers may be asked to participate in activities othere than the camp they signed up for.

Camps that generally go about their business on rain days: Sports & Games, Arts & Crafts, Soccer, Hip-Hop and Cheerleading.

There will be no make-up days offered if a rain day should occure, except where noted.
