Frequently Asked Questions
View All FAQsHow is Geek Week different than the one-week sessions?
Geek Week is a specialty session that focuses more on the popular creative-based activities rather than the science activities that the one-weeks have. There will still be some science-based exposure like our Super Science Night and space night opportunities however that will not be the primary focus of the program. Geek Week also allows for more camper-directed activities as they will give their preferences for the four core activities prior to camp.
Can I call my child at camp? Can my child call home?
We request that you call your child only in the case of an emergency at 951.659.6062. We strongly believe in the benefits of campers and parents disconnecting from each other, other than letters. Incoming parent phone calls can be a challenge because campers are busy in the program from 8 a.m. to 9 p.m.
Campers are only allowed to call home with the knowledge and consent of the Summer Camp Director.
Do you have many menu options for picky eaters?
At every meal, in addition to the main entrée served, campers have the following “other options”: Breakfast: cold cereal, fruit, yogurt, toast, and bagels; Lunch: peanut butter & jelly, deli meat, soup selection, salad bar; Dinner: salad bar. For more detailed information, please visit the “Dining” section of our website.
