Day campers need to wear tennis appropriate attire, including non-marking sneakers, and bring a racket and water bottle. Campers also must bring a lunch each day.  Overnight campers should also bring some casual clothes for in the dorms as well as toiletries, twin bed sheets, pillow, and blanket. Campers may bring snacks and drinks to camp. However, please note that the dorms do not have refrigerators so perishable items are not recommended for overnight campers. We also encourage campers NOT to bring valuables with them to camp.
While spending money is not required, parents are encouraged to provide some money for miscellaneous purchases (snacks, drinks, etc.) that we will be selling at camp.
No, we do not require a physical to attend camp. All the medical information that we need is on the registration form.
