What to bring & what to know
Saga Day Camp has all sorts of adventures happening every week of the summer. For that reason you can check back here each week to know if there is anything special you need to bring.
There are some things that you will need to bring every week, so make sure that when you arrive at camp you have your face mask, hand sanitizer, bagged lunch & snack, your hat & sunscreen, comfortable shoes to run around in, a water bottle and whatever else you need to have the most fun ever.
Saga Day Camp runs from 9:30am – 3:45pm each day, and there is supervised drop-off/ pickup between 9:30 – 9:45am, and 3:30-3:45pm. Please drop off and pick up your children within these times.

Can I get a refund if my child cannot attend Camp?
Please give us 2 weeks notice if your child will not be attending the week they are registered in order to receive your money back. After 2 weeks, no money will be refunded, although your child can transfer weeks up until the week before camp. If we need to cancel camp because of health regulations, we will be providing full refunds. Refunds have a $3 admin fee associated with them
