What to Expect:
Monday morning check in:
Check in will be located in our circle drive at 1901 Hazel
Avenue, Gold River, CA, just east of our parking lots
between 7:30 am and 8:30 am. Please be patient when waiting
for your child to be checked in. We need to check in every
child individually to make sure that they are properly placed in
a group. We try to be as fast and efficient as possible
however, you should still allow extra time on Monday
morning. Be prepared to sign your child in for camp every
morning. Campers will have their photo taken Monday morning
for their camper magnet that will be given out on
Friday.
To help the morning run more smoothly, parents can do the
following: Make sure that camper packets are completely
filled out, we cannot accept packets that are not complete.
Signatures must be original and cannot be copies.
Daily:
After the first day, you will still need to check in your child
in the mornings. Children can be dropped off between 8:00
am and 8:30 am. Camp begins promptly at 8:30 am. If
the child is not here we will call you. If you know that
you will be late or missing a day please let us know at
916-278-2842.
Check out:
Camp instruction ends at 3:30
pm. Advised camper pick up is
check between 3:45pm and 4:00 pm at
the circle drive. Your child must be signed out every
afternoon by a parent or designated carpool group. The
campers are not allowed to leave on their own or wait at the
front of the Aquatic Center unsupervised. Early pickups are
not advised as children may still be on the water or derigging
their boats.
Ice Cream:
Ice cream is sold daily from 3:30 pm to 4:00 pm. We offer a
variety of options and price range can be from $1.00 to $3.75
Carpool
If your camper will be arriving or departing with anyone other
than the parents listed on the camper packet you will need to
fill out a
permission slip form. If you will be carpooling with
other families please make sure each family fills out the form
and lists all campers. We always recommend bringing your
child on the first day.
What to Bring
- Lunch (recommend a small cooler, there is no refrigeration
for camper lunches)
- Sun block
- Refillable water bottle
- Lip balm
- Beach towel
- Bathing suit, t-shirt and shorts.
- Hat or visor
- Aquatic shoes with a heel strap such as teva sandals (bare
fee are not permitted!)
- Sunglasses with floaties or neck strap
- Warm clothes for cool mornings.
It is helpful if the campers label their belongings and bring in
a bag. The Aquatic Center is not responsible for lost or
stolen articles. We do not recommend bringing
valuables to camp.
Important Notices
If you are registering for summer camp online, please download
and print the camper packet. Your camper will need this for
Monday morning check-in, and without it your camper will not be
eligible to participate in activities. Bring the completed packet
to the Sac State Aquatic Center with you on the first day of camp
and as it will not be accepted early.
We are unable to give out registration information regarding
minors. If you are looking to register your child with a
friend, please check with their parent or guardian to confirm
what camp the other child is signed up for.
