List of 6 frequently asked questions.

• What should campers wear?

  Because Maryland is hot and humid during the summer, campers should wear comfortable, light-weight clothes, and shoes in which they are comfortable running and playing. They may wish to bring a sweater or sweatshirt with them as the air conditioning can be cool in the building. On Wednesdays, campers should bring bathing suits, shoes that can get wet, and a towel for water play.
  
  Students in certain specialty programs may have additional clothing or equipment requirements.

• Do I need to notify ICS if my child will be absent?

  • While it is not required, we do appreciate notice if a child will be absent so teachers can plan ahead. You may call or email to let us know about an absence or early pick-up.  
  • Please note: If your child’s program is going on a field trip you must arrive by the time of departure. If you arrive late and miss the departure time your camper will not be allowed to stay as there is no childcare provided. Notice and information about field trip dates and times will be emailed home at least one week prior.

  At this time, we do not offer transportation service to and from camp.
