We will do our best to accommodate for them. Q: What camp belongings do I need to provide for my child?

You do not need to bring any food or drinks from home. All meals will be provided and be vegetarian. Q: Is there anything my child should prepare for? A: A talent show is planned for Saturday night, for which your child can prepare any item of choice: storytelling, joke-telling, singing, dancing, playing musical instruments. All are welcome! If there is anything they will need to perform (e.g. CD, musical instruments, etc), please bring that with you. Q: When should I drop off my child? A: All participants must arrive between 6-7 PM on Thursday, June 23rd with their camp belongings and register with one of the camp coordinators at sign-in.

Q: Will my child be leaving the temple premises? A: No. Kindly advise your child not to leave the temple premises during the camp under any circumstances. While several volunteers will always be around to watch and prevent them from going outside the gate, we would like the children to be responsible and cooperative for their own safety. Q: Can my child use his/her cell phone during the summer camp? A: Although participants are allowed to have them during the camp, cell phones may only be used during breaks. This rule applies for calls as well as texts. If a child would like to contact his/her parent/guardian, the best thing to do is to let one of the camp coordinators know, so he/she can assist them.
