Youth Camp FAQs:
When is camp offered?
We offer camps throughout the year including during school holidays (such as MLK day, Presidents Day, or teacher in-service day) or other national holidays. Check the calendar for specific camp days.
What ages do you accept for camp?
Camp is designed for 7 to 17 year-olds. We can take five or six year-olds but only if an older sibling is also in camp that day. Sorry, we can NOT accept children younger than five.
What about lunch, water, and snacks?
Please be sure to pack your child a healthy lunch, a drink, and at least two snacks. A water bottle is also a great idea so they can refill from the water fountain throughout the day. There are also snacks and drinks available for purchase at the gym.
What time is drop off and pick up for the day?
You can drop off your child between 7:30am and 9am. Pick-up is between 4pm and 5pm. Late pick-up (between 5pm and 6pm) is available for an additional $10 per day.
Can I drop off early? Or pick up late?
We are not able to receive campers before 7:30am. We do offer a late pickup option, extending the pickup time to 6:00 pm for an additional $10 a day.
What do they need to wear?
We recommend campers wear clothes that are comfortable to move in… not too baggy, not too tight, as well as athletic sneakers. Please, no skirts without shorts for the young ladies. Fridays bring swimwear if you want to participate in the water activities.
Can my child attend multiple weeks?
Absolutely! We have several kids that spend every week of summer here at the gym. They have a blast because a new group of kids starts every week, and as they get better new climbing routes open up giving them new challenges.
Can I get a tax credit for camps at TRG?
Yes, we will send our EIN number along with your booking confirmation email so you can report it on your taxes.
