[:] Oakland Yard Athletics [:]

Campers will spend the week at Oakland Yard on our very own low
ropes course, specifically designed for children. This challenging series
of ropes, ladders, platforms, and zip lines were put together to enhance our young campers confidence in group settings. We are confident this camp will be a lasting experience for all those that take the Adventure Ropes Course challenge.

Campers will be divided into two teams of six on day one and actively
participate in team building exercises to build trust using proven
methods practiced by the British Army since World War I. By day two,
both teams will take to the course, gradually working their way up to
more challenging two and three person obstacles. With no child ever
being over 3’ off the ground this camp will inspire and progressively
confront all campers with obstacles they would not come across in your average summer vacation.

This camp is open to
boys and girls ages 7 to 12.

Enrollment is limited to 16 campers per.

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. Click HERE for a transportation cost breakdown
	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.
