Tips to be prepared and have a fun Camp Experience:
- Camp participants can be in dance attire or comfortable active wear every day of camp.
- Recommended footwear will vary depending on age groups and styles they will do. Bring all dance shoes every day, if you do not have dance shoes, a clean pair of sneakers and barefeet will do!
- An old oversized shirt is required and please label it! We will ask dancers to wear this over their clothing when doing crafts or activities that might get messy!
- Early/late drop offs are $10/day per family. The earliest drop off time is 8:30am and the latest pickup time is 4:45pm
- When dropping off or picking up, please text our Studio Cell: 519-564-2527 – we will have a staff member walk with them.
- Each dancer will be asked to bring snacks, a lunch and a water bottle every day. Please be mindful of allergies and pack a nut free lunch. Camp participants, employees and assistants will not be permitted to leave the premises during lunch break.
- Please have your child’s hair tied back and out of their face.
- We will be spending time outside. If you would like your child to wear sunscreen please send it with them or apply it before they arrive. If you choose to send your child with sunscreen, please label the bottle and our staff can safely apply it for you. We will not spend more than 20 minutes outside at a time.
- Each dancer will have a labeled basket to keep their belongings in and to collect craft projects from the week. Any forgotten items will be placed in this basket.
