Join us for Fall Break Kid's Camp at Pecar Park! Fall Break Camp will be based out at our newest park, Pecar Park located at 5203 E. CR 150 N in Avon. Campers will spend most of their time outdoors if weather permits. Each week will have a nature theme with plenty of outdoor activities such as challenges on our low ropes obstacle course, gaga ball, carpet ball, 9 square in the air, campfires, visits from our park naturalist with animal friends, cooking, crafts, sports and lots more! See below for more information on scheduled activities.
Structure and planning are very important but we also believe in letting the kids use their imagination. If the kids come up with a fun and safe activity that the counselors agree on...we are doing it! As parents ourselves, we believe that the kids are structured and scheduled all school year long. Camp is a place to explore, imagine and be a kid. In a world of technology, there is nothing wrong with just being a kid.
As always, Explorer Camp remains committed to maintaining a safe, clean and healthy environment for our staff and campers.
Parents are responsible to let the Camp Director know immediately if their child has symptoms or has been diagnosed with a Communicable Disease.
Camp staff will care for minor bumps and bruises and notify parent/guardian immediately through our online Injury Report sent by email.
Parent/Guardian will be notified immediately if a camper becomes ill or sustains an injury of a serious nature.
Please do not bring your child to camp if they feel ill, or have had a fever, coughing, vomiting or diarrhea.
A child must be fever and cough free for 72 hours and 24 hours for vomiting and diarrhea.
Please do not bring children who have lice or are injured to the extent to where they cannot participate in activities without the possibility of further injury.

Policies and Procedures
Food Policy Campers who have not purchased a lunch at registration must bring a lunch and beverage each day. Lunch is offered during registration for an additional $4. As part of our commitment to health and wellness, we encourage campers to bring nutritious foods and beverages. We recommend all campers bring a reusable water bottle to camp each day. Refrigeration is not available for participants’ lunch, so please do not include any food that is subject to rapid deterioration or spoilage. If your camper has a severe food allergy, please contact us so we can provide accommodations for the food allergy if necessary. Please send food in sealed containers and clearly label your camper’s lunch with his/her name.
Departing from Camp Pick is from 4-6pm. Parents/Guardians or Authorized Persons (Camper Information Form) are required to check their camper out with the lead counselor at the end of camp each day. Pull up to the barn and show your campers pick up pass and the lead counselor will get your child. All individuals without a pick up pass must be prepared to show identification during pick-up. You may request multiple passes for each pickup parent/guardian or take a photo of the pass to share with other family members. If you need to pick up your camper before 4:00 please notify us by using the Remind App (direction will be given to parents during registration) so we can have your camper ready for you.
Cancellation Policy Please notify the Camp Director in writing at least 10 business days ahead of time if you plan on not having your camper attend the day(s)/week(s) for which they are currently enrolled. If you cancel your registration with less than 10 business days you will not receive a full refund. Anyone who cancels after the 10 day minimum has the option to receive a household credit to use towards future camp days with permission from the Camp Director. Requests for a camp credit must be made at least 24 hours before your child misses a registered day of camp.
Late Pick-Up Fee If it becomes apparent that tardiness is a reoccurring issue during pickup, the Director will notify you to discuss late fee assessments. Parents will be charged $1 per minute should late pickups continue. In the event of 5 or more late pickups the Camp Director can request removal from camp. Late pick up is after 6 pm for full day.
