Summer Camp 2008 Sign-Up Information

Please read the information and policies below before you complete your online registration.

Sign-up – Summer Camp sign-ups are taken on a first come first serve basis. If we reach maximum capacity for a particular week or day, that week or day will be closed. When you are ready to sign-up, go to www.atac4kids.com and follow the links to Summer Camp registration. While planning your weeks to attend, be aware that there are separate activity calendars for the Small Hallers (ages 5-8) and the Outta Bounders (ages 9-14).

Online Accounts – For those of you that were with us last summer or this school year, you can use your existing online accounts for registration, tuition payments and field trip sign-up. If you do not currently have an online account, you will create one when you register for Summer Camp. After registration you can log into your account and use your credit card to make tuition payments and to sign-up and pay for field trips. You can even check your balance and print your own receipts!

Registration - The registration fee is $50 per child and it is non-refundable. This fee is the only fee you are required to pay at the time of your online registration.

Tuition – This year, for the first time we are offering three, four and five day a week pricing. Now you can really customize your summer program to hit all of your favorite trips and activities. Tuition is due the first day of the week that you attend. A late fee of $20 will be charged to your account if the payment is not made by Wednesday of that week. Payments can be made online, 24hrs a day, seven days a week, using our online account system and a credit card. There are also payment slips and a tuition box at the front desk for cash and check payments. If you use the tuition box at the center, please fill out a payment slip with each payment to insure that your payment is recorded accurately. Please keep in mind that you will be charged for any weeks that you sign-up for even if you do not attend. There is a family discount that will be deducted, if applicable, at the time of registration.

Field Trips that cost money – This year all field trips and activities are included in tuition, except for Thursday field trips, Legoland, Magic Mountain, Wild Rivers and camping. These trips will incur an additional charge and your child’s spot will be reserved when you pay for that trip. Payment for these trips can be done using your online account or by cash or check at the center’s front desk. If you pay for a trip at the front desk you must use a payment slip and indicate what trip you are signing up for. Each of these field trips has a capacity and will be closed when full. The deadline for signing up for trips is the Monday of the week in which a trip occurs - NO exceptions! Some trips have early departure times so check the weekly calendars for each trip. All field trips are subject to change or cancellation due to unforeseen circumstances. A child may be excluded from a trip for either not having an ATAC shirt or poor behavior. There are no credits or refunds for missed trips. Please be on time for all pick-ups. Late fees will be enforced.

Field Trips included in tuition – Both Small Hall and Outta Bounds will be taking local field trips on Tuesdays and Wednesdays throughout the summer. These trips are included in regular tuition. The Sign In sheet on the day of any trip will include a column to indicate whether or not you child may attend this local field trip.

Wild Rivers - There is an opportunity to attend Wild Rivers five times throughout the summer for children with season passes or pre-paid tickets. If you would like to make use of this option, you need to purchase a season pass from Wild Rivers or single day tickets. The passes are on sale now at the Wild Rivers ticket office or the Wild Rivers website. Before your child attends his/her first trip with us, they will need to have their complete pass including picture. If you need more information on Wild Rivers season passes call (949) 768-WILD or go to www.wildrivers.com. Pre-paid tickets can be purchased at the Wild Rivers box office or you can purchase and print tickets from the website. You can also buy tickets at Fun Express (ph. (949) 367-1900 - www.funex.com) or Costco. To attend a Monday Wild Rivers or beach trip, children must be signed up at the front desk by 10:00AM each Monday.

Sunscreen - We supply and cover all children with sunscreen on field trip and center days when we are outside.  We use Lil’ Gator by Aloe Gator and Coppertone. If your child has any allergies to sunscreen, please notify the staff. Hats and rash guards are encouraged for extra protection.

T-Shirts - Each child will receive an ATAC shirt with his/her paid registration. These shirts are required for most group field trips throughout the summer. If you wish to purchase an additional shirt, the cost is $15.00. Put your child’s name on the tag when you receive the shirt.

Lunch –You will need to provide a lunch for your child each day. The best way to bring a lunch is in a personal cooler that is durable and has your child’s name clearly marked on the outside. Be sure to include plenty of drinks for those long days of activities. A bottle of frozen water to keep things cool, that your child can drink when it thaws, is a great idea. Do not send money with your child to buy lunch, especially on field trips. Do not bring food that requires micro-waving or refrigeration and pack utensils if needed. Do not pack glass, gum or sunflower seeds. Please pack some healthy foods to provide long lasting energy.

Spending Money - The children are allowed to bring spending money on the field trips for the purpose of snacks and beverages. We will not dedicate time to shop for souvenirs. Your child may have the opportunity to buy a souvenir, but we concentrate our time at each location on the attractions. If they have spending money, they will need to keep track of it themselves. Bringing a fanny pack with your child’s name on it for field trips is a great idea because it never comes off. Backpacks are OK for Outta Bounders but not suggested for Small Hallers. 

Signing In and Out – A parent or authorized adult must sign each child in and out every day. Failure to do this is a safety and legal issue.

Calendars - There will be weekly calendars posted and distributed for each program. On the calendars, you will find departure and return times, as well as a more detailed schedule of the week’s activities. Any equipment needed or other additional information will also be listed on these calendars. Please check the calendars daily so that you and your child know what you are responsible for and what is happening each day. These calendars will also be posted on our website www.atac4kids.com. Please do not call the center daily to ask about departure and return times.

Camping - This year we will be camping at Lake Perris. The trip will be during week #4, July 16^th – 18^th. The cost for this trip is $85.00. This money covers food, transportation, the site, overnight staff and any additional entertainment expenses including archery, crafts and rock climbing. Parents are welcome to join us for part or the whole stay. Details on what to bring and a schedule of events will be out three weeks prior to the trip. Our center is open for those who do not attend the camping trip, and a schedule of center activities and local trips will be available shortly before that week.  

                Personal Property - ATAC is not responsible for the loss or damage of personal property, including but not limited to, cell phones, video game systems, iPODs and toys. Personal items that are brought to ATAC, that are deemed by ATAC staff to be causing problems, will be confiscated and returned only to parents.
