FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Q.  What does my child wear for the week?

• Golf: Your child must have golf or running shoes, ‘khaki’ pants/shorts, and a collared shirt.  Please put sunscreen on kids BEFORE arriving to camp each day.
• Hockey: full gear including mouth guards.  Drop off equipment every morning at Sawmill and we will transport to the arena.  Take equipment home at the end of every day.
• Off Ice: sport shorts and t-shirt are required.  Must have running shoes.

• Bring snacks for a 10 minute break each morning AND afternoon.  Make it easy to eat (granola bars, fruit) as we will be on the range, practice green or in the dressing room. 

Q.   What about golf clubs for my child?

• If your child has clubs you will drop them off on Day 1 and the golf clubs will stay at Sawmill for the week (in locked club storage).
• For kids without clubs: On Day 1 we will “fit” them with properly sized clubs and they can use the same clubs all week (driver/fairway wood, irons, putter).

Q.   How can we be sure our children will be safe?

• A supervisor (plus 3 golf instructors and 3 hockey instructors) will be with the campers throughout the day.  Horse play and bullying will be closely monitored with a zero tolerance policy.
