HOMENETMEN GLENDALE "ARARAT" CHAPTER
ARARAT KIDS SUMMER CAMP TERMS & CONDITIONS 2023
REGISTRATION:
Camp registration is considered on an individual child basis only. Each child in the family must fill up his/her own separate registration form online and each form is processed in the order in which it is received together with the appropriate payment. Incomplete forms will delay registration.
Your child will not be allowed to attend the day camp if your fees have not been paid. All payments and applications must be submitted online. NO EXCEPTIONS. There is a 60-person limit per week and the application will close and a waitlist will begin when we reach capacity for the week.
Full payment for the week is due by the Friday of the previous week. If deadline is not respected, there will be a $30 late fee if space if available. If the child is registered for the first time on Monday morning, there will be a $30 late fee. NO EXCEPTIONS.
Homenetmen Glendale Ararat reserves the right to refuse service or admittance to any child that may be disruptive to the curriculum of Ararat Kids Summer Camp.
PRICES & DISCOUNTS:
The fee for camp is $400 per week. There will be a $25 per week discount for students that attend all 7 weeks ($375 per week). The fee includes breakfast, lunch, and care from 8:00 am - 4:00pm. There will be a discount per week for siblings attending at the same time.
HOURS OF OPERATION:
Summer Day Camp program hours are 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. The center is open from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.
DROP OFF AND PICK UP:
Parents will be asked to drop children off in front of the back entrance between 8:00 am and 9:00 am. We ask that parents park and walk their child to the center. Afternoon pickup will follow the same procedure. Your child must be signed in and out during drop off and pick up. We ask that your child is picked up between 3:00 and 4:00 pm. Both gyms are reserved for other Ararat activities at 3:30 pm. In the case that you are late to pick up your child, they will be waiting in the gated area at the back entrance. If you want to pick your child up at an earlier time, please coordinate with Melineh Ebrahimian, the camp director at (818)486-3115.
WHAT TO BRING:
Each child must have a backpack with an afternoon snack, water bottle, and extra set of clothes inside. Ararat Kids Camp will provide all other necessary materials including crayons, hand sanitizer, booklets, arts and crafts materials, and more. Parents are welcome to send any additional items they feel necessary for their own child.
LOST AND FOUND:
Please make sure to label all your child’s belongings, including their water bottle, extra clothes, and any other items that are sent to camp in the backpack. All children will be responsible for their own belongings. Should something get lost, Ararat Kids Camp will have a lost and found available for parents to look through. After the completion of last week of the camp, anything left at camp will be donated.
WHAT TO WEAR:
Children should wear comfortable clothes, socks, and sport shoes that cover their toes. Please no sandals, crocs, or skirts. We have lots of physical activities throughout the day and want to ensure that children are comfortable, safe and able to participate in all planned activities.
ABSENCES:
All children must be registered for the full week to keep our group small and consistent. If a child is to miss a day of camp for any reason, we ask that the parent notifies the camp director. NO MAKEUP DAYS OR CREDITS WILL BE GIVEN FOR ANY REASON.
Refunds will only be given for absences with a doctor’s note. Each refund request will be reviewed on an individual basis. If approved, the refund request will be given to the accounting office. Refunds are subject to a $50 processing fee per child and will be made after the conclusion of camp.
ACCIDENTS:
In the event a child is hurt at Ararat and needs emergency treatment, the staff will try to reach the child's parents/guardian or emergency contact. Ararat’s accident insurance covers, up to our policy limits, any injuries received at camp to the extent that they are not covered by your health and/or accident insurance.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
No video games, phones, tablets, or electronic devices are allowed between the hours of 9:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. If the staff sees a child playing with electronics, the device will be confiscated and returned to the parent upon pick up.
If you have any additional questions, please feel free to contact the camp director Melineh Ebrahimian at (818) 486-3115. You may also email your questions and concerns to araratkidscamp@gmail.com.
