Guidelines For a Great Camp Experience
Camp drop-off and pick-up are at the Museum’s Gym Door entrance (on the opposite end of the building from the main entrance). A photo ID is required to sign out your camper.
If your child is attending all day (morning and afternoon camps), they will need to bring lunch. There is a refrigerator and microwave available for camper use. After lunch, we have supervised playtime in the gym, so there is no need to pick up your camper until the end of the afternoon session.
A snack break is provided at approximately 10 am and 3 pm every day. Your child will need to bring their own snacks and drink. Water will be provided.
| VERY IMPORTANT: Please notify the Education Director of any food allergies, food sensitivities, or health issues so we can properly care for your child. If your child has any special learning or behavioral needs, please contact us BEFORE registering so the Education Director can determine if the camp staff can meet your child’s needs. Please let us know if your child uses an epi-pen or inhaler. |
At CMOR, bullying is inexcusable, and we have a zero-tolerance policy against all types of bullying. Each camper is expected to treat all other campers with respect, and to help each other achieve the best possible experience. If a camper has difficulty meeting this expectation, parents will be called.
To keep campers safe, we require they wear closed-toed shoes: no flip-flops, sandals, crocs, or other shoes that do not stay on.
Campers should wear comfortable clothing and dress for the mess! Wear clothing that is appropriate for painting, dirt, clay, and other messy fun.
Apply sunscreen and bug spray before your camper arrives; they will be outside, weather permitting.
If you have any questions, concerns, or suggestions, please email Education Director Jessica Ordóñez at jordonez@childrensmuseumofoakridge.org, or call the Museum at (865) 482-1074.
