Sanford Camps is happy to announce that we will be offering a full 10 week program this 2021 season!
We have in place the full array of Covid-19 operating procedures in compliance with the state of Delaware, and in conjunction with federal guidelines, and will send a copy of those procedures to every family that registers.
Our long established formula of ‘A day camp by parents for parents’ was founded by education and health professionals, who were the original ‘parents’, over 30 years ago.
“Real teachers, real trees, real bugs”
We have always had a professional nurse on staff and this year we are going to re-emphasize that Sanford Camps standard – real health care with real nurses.
REGISTRATION UPDATES
Please help us operate as efficiently and safely as possible this year, and provide your child’s healthcare appraisal as early as possible. Your child will not be able to attend camp if we do not have healthcare forms in our possession at least a week prior to your child's attendance.
Our popular Kiddie Camp program in Hockessin is designed for 3 ½ to 5 year olds! Your little camper will be engaged throughout the day with an abundance of age appropriate enrichment programs that include classroom activities, playground activities and an introduction to swimming!
Sanford Day Camp is dedicated to offering a safe and fun-filled day summer camp experience for children from the age of 6 to 14. The ultimate goal of the day camp in Hockessin is to develop each camper to his or her fullest potential by offering a caring and structured environment supervised by an all teacher staff.
Sanford Day Camp's reputation as having
the best sports and specialty camps in Hockessin comes from having top-name instructors.
