SESSION 4

A Note from Your Camp Director

Welcome of Session 4 of Junior Camp! Our Junior team is extremely excited to meet our campers and their families. We have an engaging and active summer planned with your future 2nd and 3rd graders that we know they are going to love! I have provided a few friendly reminders to help prepare for the summer. If you have not done so, please finish your Epact forms as soon as possible. You received an email to the address that you registered with. You will not be allowed to attend camp until we have your emergency information.

If you have any questions, comments, or concerns, please do not hesitate to call Matt Rogers, Junior Camp Director, or Katelyn Keefe, Junior Camp Assistant Director, at (815) 355-7097 or email us at mrogers@crystallakeparks.org.
