*** Kindergarten and First Grade Camper spots are now full.
Thanks to Rappahannock County Public Schools and the Rappahannock County Board of Supervisors, the Wonderful Wednesday Day Camp will be offered free of charge again this spring to RCES students from K - 6th grade on Wednesdays from 9 am - 3 pm at the Northern Virginia 4-H Educational and Conference Center in Front Royal, VA. Campers will spend Wednesdays in small groups that are divided by grade and will follow strict social distancing guidelines. Supervision will be provided by trained adult staff and RCHS teenage counselors.
Campers can look forward to participating in the following activities:
* Two age-appropriate workshops each day;
* Homework and study time; support will be provided by teenage counselors;
* Commit to Be Fit activities;
* Community Service/Thankful activities to support and recognize members of the Rappahannock Community;
* Outdoor activities and exploration (weather dependent) - we plan to be outdoors as much as possible.
Busing, lunches, snacks, and all program supplies will be provided by RCPS. We will practice RCPS COVID safety protocols, and students will have their temperatures taken each morning, will be spaced 6 feet apart throughout the day, and will wear masks when indoors.
This program will begin on March 3, with the last day of programming taking place on May 12. The program will not be offered on April 14, 2021. If schools are closed for any reason on scheduled days of camp, the program will be canceled, as we will follow the RCPS's weather and cancellation policies.
Registration is now open and will end on February 7. Space is limited and campers will be accepted on a first-come, first-serve basis. You will be sent busing information, a daily schedule, a list of what to bring and wear to camp, and the safety precautions we will take during this day camp before February 19.
