General Camp FAQs
Participation Standards: The LFC Camp reserves the right to dismiss any camper, without refund, whom in our judgement has put his or her own safety or the safety of others at risk, has interfered with the rights of other campers or the smooth functioning of the group or program, or has violated the our principles of conduct.
Are there extended hours for working parents: In order to support families and care giver's schedules, we offer extended hours from 7:00 AM, to 6 PM. at no extra charge. Camp programming runs from 8:30 AM-4:30 PM.
What to Bring: Please provide a refillable water bottle every day, lunch, sunscreen, swimsuit and towel, and a bag for all their belongings. You may additionally want to bring goggles, insect repellant, extra change of clothes for younger children, etc. Many children have similar items so labeling everything with your child’s name is recommended. If your child will be attending Early or After care, they may have a small toy with them.
What NOT to Bring: Gum, electronic devices (including cellphones), any weapons including pocket knives, any valuable items, including cash. Langford Farms is not responsible for lost, damaged or stolen items.
What to Wear: Casual clothing that can get wet and dirty, and athletic shoes, which are required for all areas except the pools. They may be unable to participate in certain activities if they do not have tennis shoes for safety reasons. Younger children should have shoes they can take off and put on themselves, like those with Velcro straps. They should also have swimsuits they are able to remove easily when wet.
Drop-off/Pick-up: Everyone drops off and picks up at the same location, using the bridge entrance to the left when entering the club parking lot. We ask that a parent or guardian, 18 years or older, accompany campers to the lobby where we sign them in by the adult's name. All names on the authorized drop-off/pick-up will be entered into our system. Please be prepared to show I.D. A late pick-up fee will be charged if a child is picked up after camp closes at 6:00pm. Rates are $1/minute and will be added to your account.
How are Campers Grouped: Children are grouped by age/grade completed. Groups may be a combination of 2 grades, ie. 1st/2nd as long as they are only 1 year apart.
My child is not a good swimmer: Certified Lifeguards are on duty during all scheduled swim activities. Children will swim in our separate camp pool with their camp group. Parents are welcome to send a flotation device with their younger children and we will make sure they wear it. We also offer swim lessons through the club and your camper can be taken to lessons while at camp.
Can I be with a Friend: If you have a friend request please let us know on your camp registration and we will do our best to honor your request. Both children must request each other. If they are more than 1 grade apart it is likely we will not be able to accommodate your request.
Can my child bring a cellphone to Camp: Cellphones are on the “what not to bring” list. Please do not send phones or other expensive items to camp. If your child needs to contact you, they may use the camp phone. You may call the club if you need to speak with your child and we will locate them for you. Cellphones will be held in the office for safekeeping and will be returned at the end of the day. Note: Teen Club campers may bring a cellphone.
What’s New for 2022? We’ve done a lot of pre-planning to make camp as fun and safe as possible. We will be adding more time outdoors because being outdoors is good, and because being outdoors with friends, playing games and learning new things, is even better. We're also introducing League and Art Society for our older campers.
What are Lunch/Snack Options: Langford Farms does not provide lunch, so a sack lunch that does not need heating or refrigeration is required. We will provide an afternoon snack for all campers. Pizza Wednesday is always an option with a choice of cheese or pepperoni for $5. Other lunch options are available through our poolside grill and information will be provided in the parent email we send out prior to the start of camp.
What about Swim and Tennis Lessons: We expect to be offering swim lessons and swim team this summer, as well as tennis, and more information will be coming out this spring. There is a separate charge for these club programs, but campers are able to participate while at camp if enrolled. More information will be provided on our website as it becomes available.
More Parent Information: Final information for summer 2021 will be forwarded to all camp families, via email, prior to the start of camp
Tuition/payment/changes faqs
Tuition FAQs
When and How are my weekly tuition payments made: Weekly payments are processed the Friday BEFORE each week of camp that your child is registered for. An automatic payment authorization must be completed with registration, which authorizes Langford Farms to make charges to your account.
Can I pay in full ? Payment in full can be made via cash, check or credit card. There is
no refund if choosing this option. Please contact the club for details.
Declined Payments: If we are unable to process your payment you will be notified. Resolution of declined payments must be completed within 2 days, including any fees, in order to continue participation in the program.
Schedule Adjustments:
We understand scheduling changes can occur and will do our best to accommodate your requests. Please email the club with all requests to add, switch or cancel weeks. All requests must be submitted for approval at least one week in advance for consideration.
Adding Weeks: A week may be added if space is available. The $25 deposit will be required to add a week of camp.
Cancelling Weeks: You will not be charged the balance due for a week of camp if cancellation has been requested with at least one weeks’ advance notice, in writing or via email. The deposit is non-refundable after May 1st and cannot be transferred to another week.
Transferring Weeks: You may switch weeks if space is available, and the request was made with at least 1 week of notice. Your deposit will transfer to the new week if approved.
Non-Attendance: Tuition is based on enrollment, not attendance. If your child does not attend a week of camp that was reserved for you, and cancellation notice was not given, your deposit will not be refunded or transferred, and payment will still be required.
