Before & After Camp is available for an additional fee. Extend your child’s day from 7am to 5:30pm. Spots fill up fast. Staff will do their best to accommodate all registration requests.
Since camp is held outdoors and always on the move, campers are required to wear a park district camp t-shirt every day to ensure the safety of each child. T-shirts are available for an additional fee of $6 at PCC beginning May 1. Sandals and flip flops are not permitted. Campers should bring a sack lunch, water bottle, sunscreen and bug spray each day.
No worries, we have that covered. Pottawatomie Camp will be held indoors in PCC.
