2012 Summer Camp

Welcome! As a registered summer camper at Master Kim’s World Class Tae Kwon Do your child can look forward to an exciting and rewarding summer. We are sure that whether they will be with us for just a week or for the entire vacation, that they will make friends, gain new skills, and have fun. To learn more about the camp, please take a few moments to familiarize yourself with the following information.

Drop off

Drop off begins at 7:30am. Please plan to bring your child into our facility and sign them in each day. If you know that your child is going to be late, please call to notify the Director.  In addition, please be advised that campers not arriving by 9:00 on a field trip day will be the responsibility of their parent/guardian for the day if departure has already occurred.

Pick up

Structured activities, other than Tae Kwon Do, complete at 3:00pm. Pick up between 3:00 and 6:00pm is considered standard. All pick ups will be supervised by a staff member.  The only people allowed to pick up a camper are those who have been previously identified on the camp registration form.

Attendance

Campers must be pre-registered prior to attending all camp days.  If a camper wishes to attend camp during a week/ day that he or she was not previously registered for, attendance must be approved ahead of time by the camp director (prior to the date in question).  Makeup days are not permitted.  These policies are required due to the specific student to instructor ratios that must be maintained based on the attending number of campers. One week notice must be given if you need to withdraw from a registered camp. If notice is not given, there will be a $50 fee assessed.

Payments

Payment for camp can be done in one of two ways:  payment in full or weekly payment that will be charged automatically to a debit/credit card.  Any additional weeks or days that are added after the pre-registration period ends will be done only if space permits.  Additional weeks or days must be paid for prior to attending camp.

Free Choice Time

During drop off period from 7:30am to 9:00am and pickup period of 3:00 to 6:00pm campers will participate in supervised free choice time. During this time board games, paper games, and art supplies will be available. Campers will also be free to use portable game, music, or movie players. Please make sure to label your child’s games etc.

Daily Lunch & Snacks

Daily lunch will not be provided by our camp. Campers should bring lunch for themselves packed in an insulated lunch bag with ice pack. One Day/week is Pizza Day! Pizza Day is determined based on Field Trip and activity schedules. The cost is $5 and includes: pizza, snack (ex. pretzels), a drink box, and popsicle.  Money can be brought in with campers on Monday.  Pizza is optional-if your child does not like pizza, please send him/her a lunch that day.

Reading Time

Master Kim’s World Class Tae Kwon Do promotes and encourages summer reading. Approximately 30 minutes of each day will be set aside for reading time. Children are encouraged to bring their own reading material.  Summer workbooks can be done at this time as well. All campers can participate in Master Kim’s Summer Reading Program.

Tae Kwon Do instruction

All campers will receive 60 minutes of Tae Kwon Do skills and drills five days per week. This schedule will be flexible based on field trips.   In addition, campers will be encouraged to attend 2 to 3 belt specific classes per week.  Camp counselors will escort campers to and from their classes.  During classes, students will be supervised by the Tae Kwon Do instructors of that particular class. Non Tae Kwon Do students will receive a uniform and private lesson and will participate in two Tae Kwon Do classes per week led by a Master Instructor. Special pricing is available for non Tae Kwon Do students who wish to sign a contract.

Tae Kwon Do Uniforms

Campers should leave his/her uniform at camp. Uniforms will be used during the camp Tae Kwon Do classes as well as regular Tae Kwon Do classes. Campers that are non Tae Kwon Do students will receive a private lesson and uniform as part of their camp tuition.

Field Trips

Field trips vary based on the theme of the week.  Parents will be notified through the camp newsletter and email from the director. Campers should plan to wear their camp T-shirt on field trip days. Field trips sometimes come to us, and sometimes we go to them! Field Trips may include but are not limited to: Glazing Pot, Ice Skating, Monkey Joes, Climbing High, Marty the Magician, “The Science Lady” D1, HollyWild, Greenville Zoo, Paris Mountain State Park and The Critter Keeper. Campers will take at least one field trip per week. ALL field trips are included in the camp tuition.

 Summer Camp T-Shirts

Campers will receive a T-shirt on the first day of camp. T-shirts should be worn on field trip days. Additional T-shirts are available for $10.
