What is Q-Club?

What is a typical day like at Q-Club?

The Q-Club day is organized into 3 separate sessions, with 2 snack/drink breaks in between each session (one at 10:00 am and a second at 11:00 am) Each session starts out with a group announcement of the activities that will be played that session – the kids choose which activity they are interesting in playing. There is always a variety of choices each session. Activities include indoor and outdoor games, arts n’ crafts, nature activites, talent shows, arts festivals, sports competitions and more! Each day of camp is devoted to a different theme, whereby kids dress up, play games, create crafts and participate in special events surrounding that theme. A few examples of past theme days include: Crazy Hair Day, Hawaiian Luau, Pajama Day, Super Hero Day, Tie-Dye Day, Water Day, and Fashion Show Day.

Can you make accomodations for my child?

Q-Club summer camp is committed to serving ALL children of ALL abilities; please contact camp director, Nicole Woodcock, to discuss what accommodations we can make to include your camper.

Can I drop my camper off early? 

No; children may be dropped off for daily activities beginning at 9:00 am each morning. Q-Club staff CANNOT provide supervision before 9:00 am. 

Are there field trips?

Yes! Q-Club Campers have the opportunity to explore many local recreation sites on field trips that go and return during the camp day, and trips that extend the camp day. 

Field trip registration is an additonal cost to the program and each trip's registration opens at 8am, 2 weeks prior to the trip date.
