Welcome to Summer Camp 2024!

Below, you will find information that will help prepare yourself and your child for camp:

What should I pack?

• Nut free lunch labeled with your camper’s name and a cold pack (we do not offer refrigeration)
• Water bottle (we have fill stations)
• Sneakers
• Bathing suit and towel (flip flops/swim shoes – optional)
• Change of clothes in case something gets wet
• Sweatshirt on chilly mornings/days
• Sunscreen (please apply BEFORE camp and label your child’s name)
• Your camp spirit!

Please label all of your camper’s belongings!

What should I expect at drop-off?

• Drop off is between 8:15-9:00 AM. In order to moderate the amount of traffic, we are asking you to stagger the times you arrive:
  ○ Last names A-L: Drop off between 8:15-8:40 AM
  ○ Last names M-Z: Drop off between 8:40- 9:00 AM
• You will be greeted at the entrance of the Fair Acres driveway, where one of our staff members will check you in.
• We will direct you to your designated drop off location.
• You will be greeted at your drop off location by a counselor, who will assist your child with their belongings, answer any questions you have, and take them to their designated camp pod, where each camper will have a cubby for their belongings.
• We are asking all parents to remain in their cars and to proceed in a timely manner.
• If you are missing any camp forms or physicals, please bring them with you to drop off.

What should I expect at pick-up?

• Pick-up is between 3:00-3:30. A staff member will be at the entrance of the drive-way to help guide you to the correct location.
• At this time, your child will be ready and waiting at the same designated area they were dropped off at. They will have all of their belongings with them and ready to leave when you arrive.
• Both of your child’s counselors will be available at pick-up if you have any questions.
• Again, we ask you to remain at your car, to be respectful of traffic, and proceed in a timely manner.
• We kindly ask you to be on one time for pick-up.

Our 2024 Learn-to-Skate program has been a tremendous success, with each and every one of our skaters making tremendous progress – and, having a whole lot of fun – on the ice!

This program took place at the Hyannis Youth and Community Center. The Pre-K and Kindergarten students will travel by bus to the rink (the bus ride is always a huge highlight for the children!), and after lacing up, they will take to the ice to embark on the adventure of developing their ice skating skills together.

Our Learn-to-Skate program supports our goal of encouraging the development of important fine motor skills, while inspiring a love of physical activity. Preparing to ice skate requires many fine motor skills, including zipping jackets, tying skates and putting on gloves, and skating improves posture, balance, flexibility and coordination, while enhancing muscle strength and endurance.

Fair Acres is very proud of the long list of alumni, who have gone on to become hockey players and figure skaters, and we are very grateful to our staff, parents, and grandparents, who share their time and talents with us each year, to help make this program a huge success!
