Committed to quality and excellence in every aspect of the summer experience, Camp College carefully designs programs and activities, maintains a dedicated and experienced staff, and provides a caring and safe environment with state-of-the-art facilities. With an emphasis on hands-on activities and fun, children have the opportunity to achieve, gain self-esteem and confidence, explore new interests and develop lifelong memories and friendships. OUR CODE OF BEHAVIOR Our camper code of behavior is designed to create an environment that allows campers to learn, teachers to teach, and our camp administrators and counselors to facilitate the instruction. We believe that good discipline at camp is essential to the safety and well being of everyone. We also believe that the basic goals of our programs include the promotion of courteous conduct, consideration toward other people, and respect for the rights of everyone. With the full cooperation of parents or guardians, we look forward to an exciting, safe summer in which our campers respect rules and regulations. College is in session and administrative offices are open for business, so it’s especially important that campers show respect for others and demonstrate appropriate behavior and language. Our staff always uses positive techniques to guide behavior, but disruptive activities cannot be tolerated and will be subject to the following disciplinary actions: • 1st incident -verbal warning and parental notification. • 2nd incident - a two-day suspension from camp. The director may require a parent conference before continued attendance is permitted. • 3rd incident or at the discretion of the director - expulsion from Camp College, Before and After-Camp care, any programs, trips or activities associated with Camp College. No refunds are issued for suspension or expulsion. On the first day of camp, participants and staff will review expected behavior at camp. Parents are expected to discuss this information with their child and return a signed agreement with their completed application. No camper will be admitted without a signed agreement. www.mccc.edu/campcollege 58 Camp College Comments My two girls are enrolled in the 2nd session of Camp College. They are 9 and 11, so I have had a chance to sample plenty of camps in the past years; however, I did not expect to be so thrilled by your operation. My 11 year old actually did voluntary homework over the weekend to prepare her piece for her debate class. She was so excited this morning “Wish me luck Mom” is what she said when she left my car. This is just a fabulous confidence builder for her entry into Middle School in September. My 9 year old is also having a ball with the swimming, campfire and meeting new friends. Your staff is also amazing. Seriously, they open the door to help the campers out of the car in the morning and tell you to have a good day. I feel like I have to pinch myself. Worth every penny! My only regret is that I didn’t hook them up at MCCC a couple years ago. Thanks. Christine Donahue I wanted to express my appreciation to the entire staff at Camp College for my son’s third year at camp. The first year Nick attended, the place seemed so huge to me and although he was thrilled, I was a little apprehensive. Now, he’s like a regular college student, knows where everything is and who everybody is. Your staff is wonderful. Natola was so nice when I came into the camp office one morning to let them know that my father-in-law had passed away the previous night and could the staff keep an eye on Nick. The CIT’s at the drop -ff circle are so nice, some days their “good morning” and “have a nice day” might be the nicest I hear while I deal 8 hours with the public on the phone. It is so comforting to have a CIT open my car door and greet my son by name. Anthony V. knows every parent and is always there with a nice greeting every day. I just wanted to give a thank you to the camp college staff for making our family happy campers. ☺ Laura Canavera Being a CIT is a great opportunity to gain valuable job skills, make friends and still manage to enjoy your summer. I loved working with the kids. I felt like I was having as much fun as they were. Dan Zeitler I would like to tell you that I had so much fun and I will return every year. The teachers and counselors were friendly, helpful and I learned a lot! What I enjoyed most was the activities and making new friends. Monique Bergeron-Camper My son, Prem attended the highly acclaimed camp for the first time last summer. We were a little apprehensive at first since we did not know what to expect and it being his first camp. I wasn't sure if he was going to like it especially since he was going to spend about 10 hours a day for 6 weeks. For the sake of variety, we tried both the Specialty and Campus Kids. We were very happy with the overall experience to say the least. The camp counselors were very experienced and knew just how to make Prem feel comfortable in his “new summer home”. They went out of their way to provide updates to me on how he was doing. I was always able to reach them and they were very responsive. I could see that they really cared and we will definitely be back again. Great job Camp College! Raji Sathappan Camp College proved to be a true hit with my six year old's first experience with summer camp. I found the organization of the program very impressive and how they were able to move the children from one course to the next. My daughter enjoyed the well-thought-out courses and most of all, the enthusiasm and care of the counselors. Suhal Lewis I would like to say how much my son enjoys your camps, and how much I enjoy them. I leave days with peace of mind knowing he will be well looked after and having a ball. I especially like the specialty camp programs. I find them to be educational as well as fun. Diane Ziegler Matthew had a great experience with Camp College. This was his first camp experience and we were amazed with how easy it was for him to adjust to camp life. He loved his classes and counselors. Matthew wanted to stay at Camp College year round! He can't wait to come back this year! Kristy Catalfomo The dance classes at Camp College are great. Stephanie, the teacher, and Emily, her counselor are perfect. There are two dance classes Hip Hop and Dance, Dance, Dance. They also instruct Musical Theater. Last summer we performed Honey Bun from the musical South Pacific. It is always fun to sing, dance and act with Stephanie, Emily and your friends.
