Summer Camp Update
Due to the COVID-19 outbreak, and recommendations by the CDC and local, state, and federal authorities, we have crafted an alternative plan for our 2020 summer camp season. Our first priority is ensuring your child's health and safety, as well as our staff. We have had to adjust to cater to physical distancing, increased sanitation measures, new building capacities, and safety precautions - but we believe this allows us to provide more 1-on-1 time with the campers and a personalized, quality learning experience with our education team!
We will now be offering half-day camps across our entire season. We will offer each camp as an AM or PM option (same content in each, different sessions for flexibility), 3 hours long, with only 10 spots in each. We will be hosting a majority of the camp outside. Included in each camp is a take-home box, which has five activities and content to keep your kiddo busy at home when they aren't with us!
A few details:
- All June camps are CANCELED. Full refunds will be distributed. Our Center will not be open until July.
- Canceled camp themes were decided on sanitary reasons and interest. If one of your chosen camps was canceled, full refunds are available.
- Wizarding Camp is no longer a partnership with Idaho Botanical Garden. DCI is offering our own version, so make sure to claim a spot! If not, full refunds are available.
Email education@dcidaho.org for any questions or concerns.
*We ask for a 7-day warning for refunds.
**THIS IS ALL SUBJECT TO CHANGE DUE TO COVID-19.
