Kings Kamp News

 

We would like to make the Kings Kamp experience enjoyable for both parents and kampers alike. The following information will help you to prepare your child for the best “kamp” experience.

 

​​

• Please note that the children spend a significant amount of their day outdoors (weather permitting), and that water play is encouraged and available during all outdoor playtime. Therefore, we would prefer that all kampers be potty trained! If however, your child still wears “pull-ups”, please notify the staff on the first day of kamp attendance.

 

• Please send your child, every day, with appropriate swimwear on under their clothing (weather permitting), and a change of underwear for them to put on after water play.

 

• Please apply all necessary sunblock/bug spray before arriving and alert staff and complete the appropriate Medication Permission Slip if you would like sunblock reapplied during kamp hours.

 

• Please send your child in every day with a clean towel clearly marked with your child’s name and a bag or backpack to hold their wet towel and swimwear/clothing from the day’s kamp activities.

 

• Please send in a bag with a full change of clothing, including underwear, on the first day of kamp. These clothes, if not used, will be returned on the last day your child attends kamp. Please label the bag clearly with your child’s name.

 

• Please send your child in wearing footwear appropriate for the beach. We encourage flip flops, sandals, crocs, or anything waterproof that the children can easily remove and put on by themselves. Please include sneakers and socks in your child’s backpack to wear on the playground equipment after water play.

 

• Bottled water will be available to your child continuously throughout the day to keep them hydrated and energized to play! We also enjoy ice pops to cool off while outside.

 

• We ask that your child bring in a snack and drink of his/her own each day. If your child is staying for lunch please pack them a lunch which will be refrigerated unless noted on the exterior “Do not refrigerate”.

 

​​

• Please remember we are a peanut and tree nut free camp and require that no peanut or tree nut products be brought in.

 

• Please note that if your child has any allergies, they should be communicated to Mrs. McCloskey the Camp Director as well as your child’s Kamp Teaching Staff. The necessary forms and paperwork will also need to be completed by your medical provider and brought in along with any required medication(s). Collectively an Action Plan will be created and implemented. 

 

• All kampers will arrive and dismiss from their designated door each day. Please notify kamp staff, preferably in writing if anyone other than the regular pick-up person will be picking up. Please remember that that person must be included on the kamper’s Emergency Contact Form and if we do not know them they must present photo identification at the time of pick-up.

 

• All kampers must have a completed Kings Kamp Summer 2024 Application for Registration and a completed Kings Kamp Authorization for Medical Care and Release Form returned to the school office before camp begins. The Application for Registration and the Medical Care and Release Form are available on this site for download and printing. Hard copies are available for pick-up at the School or email KOKsummercamp@gmail.com for forms to be sent to you. Copies will  also be left outside the building entrance during off hours.

 

• Kampers who were not enrolled in King of Kings School during the 2023-2024 School Year must also return a completed Universal Health Form available for download and printing on this website and a current copy of their immunization record. All kampers attending Kings Kamp must be up to date with their immunizations in accordance with the NJ Department of Health requirements unless medically exempt with supporting documentation submitted in order to attend.

​

• Kampers who were not enrolled at King of Kings School during the 2023-2024 School Year will also have to complete an Emergency Fact Sheet with emergency contacts and pick-up guardians listed, an Information to Parents Form and an Expulsion Policy Form.  These forms will be available in the School Office or can be sent to you.  To request a copy kindly email KOKsummercamp@gmail.com . Copies will  also be left outside the building entrance during off hours.

 

• Completed paperwork and payment can be returned to the School. Payment by check is preferred.  Completed paperwork can also be deposited in the secure School/Church lockbox located on the wall to the right of the School/Office entry doors. Additionally, completed paperwork and payments can be mailed to Kings Kamp c/o King of Kings School, 250 Harmony Road, Middletown, NJ 07748.  ALL PAPERWORK AND PAYMENT MUST BE IN BY JUNE 1,2024. 

 

• If you need to contact the staff for any reason during kamp hours please call the King of Kings School Office at 732-615-0220 x2.

 

We look forward to seeing you at Kamp!
