What You Need to Know About Daytrippers

• Diverse Programs: Perfect for thrill-seekers in grades 5-8 who love daily field trips and outdoor exploration.
• Easy Sign-Up: We handle all bookings and logistics, so your camper enjoys a stress-free, memorable summer.
• Well-Staffed & Safe: Minimum 2 counselors per 12 campers, with added staff for larger groups. We thoroughly vet all partner organization.
• Flexible Programming: We reserve the right to adjust programming as needed and will do our best to inform families with as much advance notice as possible.
• Weekly Lunch Provided: We’ll treat campers to lunch once a week, and will share the schedule with families once our itineraries are set and approved. On other days, campers bring their own lunch for a full day off-campus.
• Higher Behavioral Standards: As Daytrippers are often in the public eye, we hold campers to a higher standard of behavior to represent our program positively. We cannot tolerate certain behaviors—such as unsafe actions, profanity, and disrespect.
• Rigorous Activities: Daytrippers’ activities will be more rigorous and demanding than on-campus programming. Some specific needs may be difficult to accommodate due to the nature of activities provided by our partner programs.
• Key Details:
  • Full-day, off-campus program (9am – 4pm), with no late arrivals or early dismissals.
  • Safe transportation in St. John’s Prep vehicles, driven by trained, certified staff.
  • Some partner organizations may require additional waivers for camper participation. Summer at St. John’s will send these waivers to caregivers two weeks before the start of each weekly program.
