What To Bring
& What Not To Bring

Your camper will need to bring a bag including the following:
- Change of clothes
- Flip Flops/Sandals for pool
- Towel
* Optional Bug Spray/Sun Screen

Your camper is welcome to bring their own morning snack, but please do not send any snacks containing peanuts or tree nuts. Thanks!

We do not allow the following to be brought:

- Toys of any sort from home (This includes stuffed animals, fidget toys, etc.)
- Cell phones/devices

Your camper is welcome to bring goggles and/or puddle jumpers should they need those to swim. However, we do have plenty of goggles and puddle jumpers to share! We are not responsible for any lost or broken pool items that are brought by your camper.

Clothing

We will be active all day long! Campers should wear light, active clothing and closed toed shoes.

Lunch, Snacks, & Spending Money

We provide a filling lunch for each camper each day. If your child has a food allergy (Gluten Free, or Dairy Free), we are happy to accommodate as long as we know beforehand! NGCC’s menu is always peanut and tree nut free.

Your child will be given 2 snacks each day. In the morning a light breakfast-like snack will be provided, and in the afternoon campers will get a snack from our camp “Canteen.”

At Canteen we have the NGCC Camp Store with camp merchandise for purchase (shirts, water bottles, notebooks, etc.). You are welcome to send your child with spending money should they want to purchase something from the Camp Store! Otherwise, they will have no need for spending money.

Payments & Refunds

The full balance is due on the Monday of your arrival. Upon registration you pay a $50 deposit that is non-refundable. If your camper can no longer attend a week, you will be refunded any amount paid (excluding the $50 deposit) if canceled before the 7am on the Monday of the registered week.

No refunds/discounts are able to be given for any amount of missed days in a week.

We are unable to scholarship our Day Campers. However, upon registration you are welcome to sign up for a monthly payment plan!

Scholarships

Our Day Camp is ran by 5 highly qualified individuals who LOVE camp! They are all CPR and First Aid certified to provide the best and safest care for your children. Additionally, all of our staff are background checked.

Day Camp Staff

No cellphones, smart devices, portable gaming systems, or technology of any kind are to be brought to Day Camp by a camper. We understand that sometimes students have special needs that give cause for having a device (i.e., medical reasons like diabetes), but we ask that you will make us aware ahead of time if this is the case.

Parents are welcome to call the camp at anytime to check in on their campers. And should a camper request it, they are welcome to use our camp phone to call their parents.

Please understand that by signing the registration, you are agreeing to these terms and that if you choose to make your camper bring a cellphone or smart device, or if your camper brings a cellphone or smart device on his/her own volition, that upon its discovery it will immediately be confiscated, locked in the camp office, and will not be returned until pick-up. We will not be responsible for lost or damaged cellphones.

Thank you.

North Georgia Christian Camp Policy

For the safety and benefit of your child, please discuss this camp policy together.

Please Note: Your child must follow the rules and be able to participate in a group setting. Our ratio of adults to children is 1:6 — we are not set up to offer 1 on 1 attention, therefore, any behavioral issues, if unable to be managed, will result in your child needing to be picked up early and may result in them not being able to return. Thank you for understanding.

  • Your child will be expected to follow the schedule given to you & stick with the Day Camp group.

  • Your child will not be permitted to leave our camp grounds.

  • All sickness and accidents should be reported to the Day Camp Staff promptly.

  • Swimming activities will only take place under lifeguard supervision.

  • Campers are not to bring phones, smart devices, laptops, iPods, or video game systems of any kind.
