An enrolment form must be completed on the first day of camp. For life threatening allergies, please supply two non-expired Epi-pens as well as two recent photos. All medication must be prescription or be accompanied by a doctor's note.

Swim
Children 8 years and older can participate in a swim test. Those who successfully complete a swim test can swim without a life jacket. Please discuss with your child(ren) that all children 7 and under and those who do not pass a swim test will be required to wear a life jacket at all times while swimming/attending an aquatic out trip.

Pre-Care and Post-Care
Pre and Post Care is provided from 8-9 am and 4-5pm at no additional charge.
Individuals picking a child up from camp will be required to show photo identification daily. Individuals who do not have Photo ID and/or who are not listed on the authorized pick-up sheet (listed on the enrolment form), will not be permitted to leave with the child.

Inclusive Recreation
The City of Ottawa is committed to the inclusion of all campers. To best support children at camp, please make us aware of any diagnosed or undiagnosed cognitive differences or behaviors your child may have early on. Making us aware early on will help our coordinators arrange for any additional supports that may be needed. If your child requires integration support at school, they will likely need it at City of Ottawa camps. 1:1 Shared Care support can be offered at no cost for 2 weeks. Please be advised that Shared Care is based on a first-come, first-served basis. Please ensure you register into the no-cost Shared Care barcode in addition to registering for camp to secure your spot and allow enough time for the intake process prior to start of camp. Camp participation criteria will be used to determine eligibility for Shared Care support. If you have any questions, contact the Inclusive Recreation team at InclusiveRecreation-LoisirsInclusifs@ottawa.ca.
