Wednesday is field trip day! All field trip costs are included in the program fees. Each child must have a permission slip for every field trip and must wear their camp T-shirt on each field trip day. Prior to the start of camp you will receive a detailed package listing all scheduled field trips.

 

FIELD TRIPS & ACTIVITIES
Lots of field trips and activities are scheduled for TLC's campers and the 2010 schedule can be found on the Camp TLC Field Trips page. Field trips are typically scheduled on the same day(s) of the week so that you know when trips will be happening. Prior to the start of camp you will receive a schedule of all the field trips that are planned. We know that children love to be outside so we take our campers to the beach or a pool twice a week.

Field trip costs are included in the program fees for full-time campers. Children must wear their Camp TLC T-shirts on all field trips and have a permission slip for each trip. We created the Camp TLC Field Trips page that will list all the field trip dates and locations. TLC Pre-School Camp field trips 2010 can be found on the Pre-School Camp page.

All campers will have a variety of daily of activities to choose from: creative arts and crafts, group games, various active sports, water activities, sprinklers, and water hoses. Children may bring their bicycles, roller skates, and roller blades to camp. Safety equipment is required - specifically helmets and kneepads which must be worn at all times when cycling or skating.

Family Fun! TLC knows how to host a great family party and all of our campers and their families are invited. This celebration is usually held during the last week of camp in August. This has been a great way for parents to meet their children's friends and other TLC parents while playing games and sharing great food in a festive atmosphere.
