1. Camp hours are 9:00am-3:00pm. Drop off can begin at 8:45am. Pick up must take place by 3:15pm. We will not open the doors for drop off until 8:45am in order for our staff to prepare for the day.  Your child will be promptly released at 3:00pm.  Please, do your best to be sure your campers arrive on time, as we use every single minute of the day to prepare your child to put on a full stage production and start promptly at 9:00am.

2. CAMP ATTIRE: Please, have your children wear sneakers and comfortable clothes that you can move in. NO FLIP FLOPS OR OPEN TOE SHOES PLEASE!!!! This is a safety concern and the campers cannot dance, etc. in flip flops.  ALSO, no skirts, dresses, midriff tops, or offensive language/graphics.

3. On the first morning of sign in we will need each child to pick up a name tag that they will turn in at the end of each camp day to help everyone learn each other’s names.

4. Each camper should provide their own lunch, drinks, and snacks. Plenty of water is encouraged.  Drinks should be in a spill proof container.  PLEASE, make sure your child’s lunch bag has their name on it!

5. Sign in and sign out – Please see our Covid Camp Guidelines for updates to this procedure.  There is no supervision provided for campers before the official start time of camp. Please do not leave your child at the camp site before the start time. Children need to be picked up on time from camp, as supervision is not available after camp ends.

Parents of students that are teens may give us a  permission slip which will allow their student to sign themselves in and out of all camp days or individual days at the parent’s discretion.

If you have a child that walks or drives themselves to and from camp please make sure we have a note with permission for them to leave turned in on the first day of camp. 

6.  Auditions for particular roles will be held on the first day of camp. Auditions will consist of cold readings from the script. Callbacks could occur Monday or Tuesday and they may be doing a ‘callback audition’ for the director and assistant director. Nothing hard. Just fun and to get them used to the audition and callback process.

7. We do not offer before and after care. If your child is picked up after 3:15pm it will be considered being late and you will be charged for the day – $5 per child per 15 minutes is due to the person that has been left in charge of your child. All camp t-shirts will be held until all monies due have been paid.

8. Costumes–We WILL be asking you to supply certain items for your child’s costume. These could include things such as black pants, jazz shoes, wig caps, tights, etc. We will send a letter and an email home with this information. Please, let us know when we send this letter home if this presents a problem for any reason

9. We will be sending out a sign up for parents to help at the shows to assist with concessions, ticket taking, squishes for wishes, etc. for each show. Your help will be greatly appreciated!  We may also ask you to bring in show related items to go into raffle baskets that will sold at the shows in order to assist the fundraising efforts of the Griffin Theatre.

10. Call time on show days will be 1 hour-1.5 hours before show time.  You will be informed the last week of camp when they need to arrive at the theatre on show days.

11. In case of an emergency during the day (or to let us know that you will be late, are sick etc.) where you need to get ahold of the camp staff or a camper please call or text 302-202-8440. Any other concerns or questions can be addressed by email at artistic.director@griffintheatre.com.
