DAY CAMP

CHILDCARE AT NATIONALS

Bring your kids to Nationals! If they’re not racing with or against you, let us watch them while you race.

We’re offering a daytime childcare program for kids aged six months to 12 years. Veteran Thistler Charlotte (Bauer) Patrick — who directed the sail camp for the Cleveland Yachting Club – is organizing a team of counselors who will lead campers on all sorts of safe, fun adventures throughout the week, including swimming, sports and games.

Day Camp details:

  • Ages: Six months – 12 years
  • Dates: Saturday, July 31 through Friday, August 6
  • Parents must pack a bag with sunscreen, swimsuit, towel, change of clothes, water bottle (and/or bottles with formula/breastmilk, if necessary), diapers (if necessary), etc.
  • Parents must provide emergency contact information and a list of any food allergies.
  • Snacks provided; boxed lunches available for purchase
  • Campers will have access to the club’s Crew’s New room, which is air-conditioned and can accommodate Pack n’ Plays for naptime
  • Drop off campers at the Crew’s Nest room approximately two hours before the first race of the day.
  • Pick up campers within 30 minutes of returning to shore. If racing is postponed, babysitting is postponed, too.
  • Weekly cost (paid upon arrival): TBD
  • Due to COVID-19, we’re considering a pod-based system to limit exposure between campers. More information about COVID-19 protocols to follow.
