To secure a seat for your Camper...

1. Fill out this Registration Form.

2. Submit payment here. If you are unable to add the Camp you want, email us and we will put you on a waitlist.

Once the registration form and payment have been received, your camper’s spot is reserved. You’ll receive a confirmation email.

If you are unable to add a Camp in the payment portal, you may email (SSLC_Camp@utah.edu) and request to be put on a waitlist. We will alert you if a seat becomes available.

Requests to move Campers to different weeks will be honored as availability allows.

Any cancellations for full refund or changes to camp weeks must be made by Monday, 11 May.

Email reminders with final schedule will be sent out the week before your Camp starts.

We want for all at Camp to

• be safe

• make friends

• feel seen, heard, and appreciated

• try new things and think new thoughts

• contribute and value unique perspectives

To that end, we have a Camp Code that Campers and Parents/Guardians agree to and sign.

I promise to…

1. Risk doing new or hard things…no adventure if I don’t venture!

2. Respect other people and things

3. Follow the Rules that protect me

4. Refrain from taking more than my Fair Share of the adult attention

Anyone taking more of their Fair Share or choosing not to adhere to the Camp Code will start down this Continuum of Consequences…

#1 Reflect & Return (R & R)

• I will have some solo time to think and write about how I can recommit to the Camp Code. I will return when ready with a plan in place to successfully rejoin the group.

#2 Extended Break

• I will spend the day at home. I may return the following day with a written plan in place to successfully finish the camp.

#3 Part Ways

• Things didn’t work out. I will be removed from the camp for the remainder of the week.

Willful rebellion/defiance, disregard for the safety of self or others, leaving the premises without permission of the camp staff, or other dangerous behaviors may result in jumping directly to #2 or #3.

We don’t want phone distraction to get in the way of the best Camp experience! SO…

• Campers should leave their phones and other electronics at home.

• All phones brought to Camp will be placed in the Phone Box from 9 am until 2:55 pm.

• Messages that can’t wait until after Camp (like a change in carpool) can be texted or emailed to SSLC staff. This number will be emailed to you along with your registration materials.

Why not allow the Campers their phones during breaks and lunch?

• Unstructured free time is invaluable for Campers to connect with peers in a meaningful way and build the relationships that we hope to foster here.

• Anticipating phone use during an upcoming break might keep Campers from enjoying the Camp experience fully.

• The responsibility for monitoring phone use should rest with the parent/guardian.

• a non-refrigerated nut-free sack lunch

• 2 snacks

• a water bottle

• sunscreen and/or a hat (we will go outside most days)

• comfortable walking shoes (will need close-toed shoes on lab tour days)

• NO CELL PHONES :)

All medication should be sent with the Camper in the original bottle with the dosage clearly marked.

Staff is not allowed to administer medication, but can arrange for safe-keeping on a case-by-case basis.

• We plan for Campers to be at Camp all 5 days.

• We understand that life happens and Campers may not be in attendance every day.

• Be aware that those absences (even if planned ahead of time) will not result in reduced or refunded tuition.

• Campers should be dropped off between 8:50 and 9 am

• Campers should be picked up between 3 and 3:10 pm and will be released only to an authorized adult with an ID. Self-checkout can be granted to older Campers with adult approval.

• Early drop-off or late pick-up will be assessed a fee to pay for additional staffing costs.

• Detailed procedures to follow.

We strive to create an inclusive environment for all to the best of our abilities. Please contact SSLC staff at SSLC_Camp@utah.edu with any questions about your camper’s individual needs.

All parents and Campers will be asked to agree to follow this Communicable Disease Protocol

Expectations of Parent/Guardian to support their child’s participation: 

My child will not attend the SSLC Summer Camp Program if experiencing any of the following symptoms: 

• A fever of 100.4°F or higher (any time within the last 24 hours)        

• A new or worsening cough                                              

• A sore throat 

• Tightness in the chest or difficulty breathing 

• Muscle aches, headache, or chills 

• Change in taste or smell 

• Nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea  

My child will not attend if they or anyone in the household has been ordered to quarantine or isolate by the Health Department. 

I will notify the program director should my child test positive for COVID-19, or any other communicable disease, at any time during the program. 

I will promptly (within 30 minutes) pick up my child if they show symptoms of illness during camp and I am contacted by program staff. 

I will keep my child home until they are no longer contagious.

Expectations of Campers: 

I will follow proper hand hygiene and sick etiquette.

I will not come to camp if I’m feeling sick with any of the above mentioned symptoms.

I will notify a staff member immediately if I start to feel ill while at camp. 

I will always be respectful to the staff and other campers.
