Every Thursday, the clubhouse children will have the opportunity to choose a main, small group activity . Weekly options include: hiking, swimming, fishing and canoeing or kayaking. Sign-up sheets will be available each week for the clubhouse children to select a different option suited to their interests.
Field Trips
Field trips culminate a week of organized activities based on summer themes. Each trip is an exciting adventure for your child. Staff actively work with the children to maintain optimum supervision and safety. High expectations are instilled in the children regarding positive behavior and rules while off-site. Persistent problems are brought to the parents' attention. Children can be suspended from trips for chronic, disruptive behavior, seriously jeopardizing the safety of themselves or another child, or repeated non-compliance with program rules as evidenced by incident reports and determined by the directors or substitute authority.
The field trip bus will leave promptly from the center at the designated time. We suggest you drop off your child no later than 15 minutes prior to bus departure time. We will arrive back at the center no later than 3:00 p.m. If you need to drop off after 9:00 or pick up before 3:00, please meet us at our destination of the day. Due to staff/child ratios, children are not allowed to remain at the center
Safety Comes First
TLC's foremost concern is the safety of the children. Tricia has been organizing and conducting summer field trips including time at the beach with children for the past twenty-six years. A well-seasoned staff works closely with Tricia to maintain optimum supervision and safety during the summer program. Teachers diligently discuss the rules and prepare the children for the transition into summertime fun days.
The teacher-to-child ratio will be very low-we are shooting for a 1:4 ratio within each age group. Each staff member will be responsible for a certain group of children on trip days. Tricia and the lead teachers will be overseeing the entire group. Parental participation in our summer program is welcomed and appreciated. A sign-up sheet for all field trips will be posted for all those interested in helping out during the summer program.
