“Friendly Froglets” Program
The staff at Camp College would like to introduce you to our revised “Friendly Froglets” Program for 6-yr-olds for Session I and Session II. Each four-week session is structured to include
unique activities every Monday – Thursday.
Our new, revamped program is designed to specifically meet the needs of our youngest campers. No longer will they be restricted to structured 55-minute classes; instead their day will be
similar to that of the school year day allowing the teachers more freedom in their lessons. Under
constant, careful supervision of experienced and certified instructors and our trained camp counselors, our Friendly Froglets will be encouraged to participate in a wide range of multi-cultural
activities, arts and crafts, outdoor sports, reading, science, math and many other organized activities. The limited number of campers in each group allows the teachers to give much needed individualized attention to each child.
This new program will allow our little ones the opportunity to play constructively, learn the importance of socialization, sharing and cooperation and allow them to adjust to new environments
and becoming more independent. Campers will follow a daily schedule which will enable them
to be active and to enjoy the same great fun as the older campers, but at a more relaxed pace.
Beginner Swim is still an option for our 6-yr-olds. IT IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE
FRIENDLY FROGLETS PROGRAM – YOU MUST PLACE A CHECK IN THE BOX IF
YOUR CHILD IS INTERESTED. Instructional swim lessons will run for 45 minutes from
12:15 to 1pm. Please select the box if you would like your child to participate. Please remember
to have your child bring a towel and swimsuit.

Camp College
OUR MISSION
Mercer County Community College’s Camp College mission is to provide the finest
camp experience for children; an experience that will be remembered for a lifetime.
Camp College is committed to quality and excellence in everything we do by providing carefully designed programs and activities, a dedicated and experienced staff,
and a caring and safe environment with state of the art facilities. Through education with an emphasis on hands-on activities and fun, we offer children the opportunity to achieve, to develop self-esteem and self-confidence, and to grow.
OUR CODE OF BEHAVIOR
Our camper code of behavior is designed to create an environment that allows
campers to learn, teachers to teach, and our camp administrators and counselors
to facilitate the instruction. We believe that good discipline at camp is essential to
the safety and well being of everyone. We also believe that the basic goals of our
programs include the promotion of courteous conduct, consideration toward other
people, and respect for the rights of everyone.
With the full cooperation of parents or guardians, we look forward to an exciting,
safe summer in which our campers respect rules and regulations. College is in session and administrative offices are open for business, so it’s especially important
that campers show respect for others and demonstrate appropriate behavior and
language. Our staff always uses positive techniques to guide behavior, but disruptive activities cannot be tolerated and will be subject to the following disciplinary
actions:
•
1st incident -verbal warning and parental notification.
•
2nd incident - a two-day suspension from camp. The
director may require a parent conference before
continued attendance is permitted.
•
3rd incident or at the discretion of the director - expulsion from Camp College, Before and After-Camp care, any programs, trips or activities associated with Camp College.
No refunds are issued for suspension or expulsion. On the first day of camp, participants and staff will review expected behavior at camp. Parents are expected to discuss this information with their child and return a signed agreement with their completed application. No camper will be admitted without a
signed agreement.

Camp College Comments
Thank you for another wonderful summer at
Camp College. My two children, 10 and 13,
participated in both the Campus Kids and
Specialty programs. They have been attending
the camp for the past six years. My daughter
loved seeing her "camp friends" and counselors for another summer of fun. My son had a
wonderful experience in Aqua Adventure Camp
and Adventure Camp. (Highly recommend
both!) The instructor, Wayne, from Adventure
Camp and the counselors are professionals who
inspire confidence. MCCC camp programs are
safe, well-run summer fun!
Cathi Roberts
The week before last, while picking up my
granddaughter and a neighbor's child from
camp, I was witness to an event that made me
feel exceedingly more confident with entrusting the safety of my granddaughter to the camp
and its counselors. A mother was picking up
her two boys from camp and did not have the
proper ID. Your counselors were confident
and steadfast in following the procedures set
up for camper pick-up. There was an apparent
name discrepancy on her ID and the counselors
would not release the children without proper
authorization. While I am sure it frustrated the
mother in question, I am also confident it made
anyone observing the incident more secure.
Thank again for your diligence in ensuring
the safety of our children
Marie Mendez
Just some overall feedback for you on the
camp...Nick is loving it. He has come home
each day with great things to say about his day.
Quite a change from camps he's attended in the
past. I'm so happy we were able to sign him
up. He will definitely return next year.
Nancy Kinter
My son, Prem attended the highly acclaimed
camp for the first time last summer. We were
a little apprehensive at first since we did not
know what to expect and it being his first
camp. I wasn't sure if he was going to like it
especially since he was going to spend about
10 hours a day for 6 weeks. For the sake of
variety, we tried both the Specialty and Campus Kids. We were very happy with the overall
experience to say the least. The camp counselors were very experienced and knew just how
to make Prem feel comfortable in his “new
summer home”. They went out of their way to
provide updates to me on how he was doing. I
was always able to reach them and they were
very responsive. I could see that they really
cared and we will definitely be back again.
Great job Camp College!
Raji Sathappan
I would like to say how much my son enjoys
your camps, and how much I enjoy them. I
leave days with peace of mind knowing he
will be well looked after and having a ball.
I especially like the specialty camp programs.
I find them to be educational as well as fun.
Diane Ziegler
Camp College proved to be a true hit with my
six year old's first experience with summer
camp. I found the organization of the program
very impressive and how they were able to
move the children from one course to the next.
My daughter enjoyed the well-thought-out
courses and most of all, the enthusiasm and
care of the counselors.
Suhal Lewis
The dance classes at Camp College are great.
Stephanie, the teacher, and Emily, her counselor are perfect. There are two dance classes
Hip Hop and Dance, Dance, Dance. They also
instruct Musical Theater. Last summer we
performed Honey Bun from the musical South
Pacific. It is always fun to sing, dance and act
with Stephanie, Emily and your friends.
Caroline Cano - Camper
I would like to tell you that I had so much fun
and I will return every year. The teachers and
counselors were friendly, helpful and I learned
a lot! What I enjoyed most was the activities
and making new friends.
Monique Bergeron-Camper
Being a CIT is a great opportunity to gain
valuable job skills, make friends and still manage to enjoy your summer. I loved working
with the kids. I felt like I was having as much
fun as they were.
Dan Zeitler
Matthew had a great experience with Camp
College. This was his first camp experience and
we were amazed with how easy it was for him
to adjust to camp life. He loved his classes and
counselors. Matthew wanted to stay at Camp
College year round! He can't wait to come back
this year!
Kristy Catalfomo
I really enjoyed my experience at Camp
College. The teachers and counselors were
friendly and helpful. Whenever I needed help,
they would come to me immediately and
answer my questions.
