Camp Wauconda
It’s never too early to start thinking about summer fun! We already have a fun-filled summer planned for your children. Camp Wauconda offers a full-time and part-time format with age-appropriate activities like arts and crafts, swimming, games, parties, field trips once a week, theme days, entertainers, and much more! Camp Wauconda is for children entering grades 1-8 in Fall 2012.
Camp Format
Camp Wauconda is an active day camp that is planned by our Camp Coordinator, Camp Counselors, Recreation Staff, and Campers themselves. Our staff to camper ratio is 1:10 for 1st-4th grade and 1:15 for 5th-8th grade. Kids are grouped by grade so they are interacting with kids their own age most of the time. Each session is two weeks long and a schedule of activities is distributed to each group. A new theme each week is incorporated into the activities, projects, and games that have been planned. There are also two trips scheduled per session and one special event, which are tied into the theme.
Registration Information
A $20 non-refundable deposit is required at the time of registration along with an additional $20 non-refundable deposit for each session your child will attend. Dates may change due to Wauconda School District #118 schedule.
