SNACKS

A healthy snack is provided daily. With written notice from parents, Camp Fire will make a reasonable effort

to accommodate kids' food allergies or other dietary requirements. Kids are welcome to bring snacks from home.

HOMEWORK

The afternoon schedule typically provides about 20 minutes of focused and quiet time for kids

to work on homework or read. Staff will monitor, encourage, and offer help to kids during this time. However, campers are responsible for their own assignments. Kids who do not have homework are expected to read or participate in quiet activities during this time.

 

WEATHER

If school is cancelled or students are sent home early due to poor weather conditions, Camp Fire's After School

programs will also be canceled.  If there is a two-hour morning delay, programs will run as normal.

FINANCIAL AID

Camp Fire After-School programs are licensed and accept state subsidy payments. For more information,

Thanks to grant funds and generous support from our donors, Camp Fire is able to offer scholarships

to families who need financial assistance. Find our scholarship application here.
