Students off on school
vacation days have a place they can go to gather
with friends and respected staff. Many after-school
and summer camp staff returns to join the fun and
acquaint themselves with their young buddies.
For the working family, ACT offers an exciting alternative
to having a child stay home with little to do during
the school recess. For all children, we offer new
friends and a place to enjoy their day away from
school and home. Join us for a fascinating and fun
time at Vacation camp. Enroll for one or all days.
New
extended hours: as early as 7:55am to as late as
6:00 pm
Cash payment is required if registering five
days or less prior to a holiday. |

OUR
CORE PROGRAM Our philosophy stems
from our seven core values (fun, child centered,
learning, organization, diversity, teamwork and safety
) framing behaviors we exhibit with children, staff
and through program activities.
Children
have a voice and we listen. Our child-centered
approach dictates that we listen and offer options that
enhance a child's sense of
self and social development. Diverse activities
ensure that everyone's experience
is different, appropriate and fun. Our year round
staff, artist and experts are hired to create specialized
learning moments in a safe setting.
All plans are subject to change and
may not be listed herein as many are developed with
the children in attendance and vary upon attendance.
The theme for the day sets the tone for the daily offerings
and is expressed in a balanced and organized
schedule that includes physical and creative outlets,
teamwork, and outdoor fun.
Trip fees are refundable if a trip
is canceled or if a child does not go on the trip. Advance
ticket purchases are not refundable. Material fee cover
transportation costs or special materials needed for
theme projects.
