What is the camp’s mission and philosophy? MCA Summer Camp focuses on creating a supportive, engaging environment where campers can grow, learn, and connect with others. Campers will explore interests, uncover talents, make friends, and have fun!

What safety measures are in place? We prioritize a safe and nurturing space, ensuring each camper feels secure and engaged. Each camp is planned, conducted, and supervised by an MCA teacher with assistance from MCA students.

What is the camper-to-counselor ratio? At MCA’s summer camp, personalized attention is a top priority, with a camper-to-counselor and staff ratio of 3:1.

How are staff members screened and trained? Our team of dedicated MCA teachers and students is trained to ensure a safe, positive camp experience. Counselors must complete an application and attend pre-camp meetings and workdays.

Is there a daily schedule, and can you provide an example? Morning sessions run from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m., and afternoon sessions are from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. Campers attending both sessions have a supervised lunch and recess break.

Are there opportunities for free play or downtime? Campers enjoy a well-balanced schedule that includes time for breaks, snacks, lunch, and socializing with friends.

How does the camp handle health issues and allergies? We prioritize each camper’s safety and well-being, ensuring their needs are fully addressed. Parents are encouraged to inform us of any allergies or health concerns during registration and follow-up communications.

Are there opportunities for parents to visit or participate in camp activities? Parents are invited to attend the final performances of select camps, where campers will showcase what they’ve learned.
