Each coach is an expert in their field and is able to give

individual instruction to each camper throughout the week.

What if I need to bring my camper in late, or want

to pick him/her up early?

Just email our office at [email protected] and we

will notify your Camp Director. You can also fill out an early

pick-up sheet in the morning during check-in.

Whom do I call when I have questions throughout

the summer?

You can always give our camp office a call with questions

at 212.336.6846. They are able to connect you with each

camp’s Director for a direct conversation.

What if my child is a “picky” eater?

Chelsea Piers has a variety of nutritious meals to choose

from. Our vendors include fresh&co, Piers Pizza Company,

and Abigail Kirsch catering. Lunch options include fresh

fruit, yogurt, mixed vegetables, salad, sandwiches, bagels,

pizza, pasta, chicken, meatloaf and more. Our camp

counselors make sure each child has a healthy option.

Will we need to pack sunblock?

Sports Academy, Urban Adventure and Golf camps do

spend some time outside – so we would recommend that

you pack sunblock.

Can we add more weeks?

Absolutely! Some weeks do sell out before the summer

begins, but as long as we have an opening we would

love to have you back. It’s best if you let us know by

the Wednesday before to determine if transportation is

available.

Is there a time when parents can watch?

Yes! We host a variety of shows and Field Days during the

summer that parents can attend. Please check the weekly

schedule for specific dates and times.

Are the camp buses air-conditioned?

All of our buses are air-conditioned. Each bus is fully

licensed and equipped with seat belts, radio dispatch and a

Chelsea Piers bus counselor. Buses pick up and drop off at

convenient locations throughout Manhattan and Brooklyn.

For more information, please visit pages 32 and 33.

What does my child do in Aftercare?

Aftercare provides campers with time to relax after their

long day of activities and allows parents to complete their

work day. Campers participate in a variety of games and

activities.


FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS CONTINUED

Is there a camp nurse?

What if my child has severe allergies

and/or an EpiPen?

Please let the camp office know about your child’s

allergy. We have a camp nurse on-site as well as an

EpiPen certified staff.

What’s a typical camp day like?
