If you want to you are more than welcome. We have a full café here at Aviator if your child wants to purchase food or drinks. For field trips, it is also an option, totally up to you. However, we are not responsible for lost or stolen money.
My child does not want to go on today’s trip. Can they stay in the building with another group from another division?
For 2021 our field trip offerings will be limited to locations that Aviator Summer Day Camp can rent out and be the sole camp at.
Campers will be permitted to stay at Aviator Sports and a limited number of counselors will stay behind with campers.
If your child comes to camp that day they have to go on the field trip. All campers go on the same field trip every Wednesday so there will be no staff or groups that are in Aviator that day. If your child does not want to come on the field trip please make arrangements for your child to stay at home.

Medical forms have to be handed in before camp starts. Please make sure they are up to date.
What kind of field trips do the campers go on?
We go on field trips to various different places. Aquariums, amusement parks, museums and other various places within the tristate area.
Do all the age ranges mingle with each other?
For 2021 New York State guidelines suggest limiting the interaction between groups where possible. We will be following this guideline as much as possible. In instances where groups do have to mingle social distancing will be in place.
Day to day activities there will be possible interaction with each other. But typically all grades stay within their age ranges
What do I do if my child(ren) has allergies?
Make sure it is indicated on the medical forms of what allergies your child(ren) has. If your child(ren) has an epi-pen or any other medication please bring it to our nurse on the first day of camp or make sure your child(ren) has it on them to give to our nurse. The camp nurse will review medical forms and contact families directly regarding any supplemental information, equipment.
