What ages to the campers have to be to register?
The ages will vary depending on camp week, which will be stated in the description.
What does a typical day at camp look like?
Campers will begin each day with an overview of the day and what recipes they'll be covering. Campers will spend the rest of the session working in teams of 2 to complete each recipe with the help and guidance of the Culinary Instructors and Staff. The campers have a break in the middle of the session, where they will enjoy what they've made thus far. Campers will get to bring home all of their creations and recipes to enjoy outside of camp and share with family and friends!
What does my camper need to wear, and what do they need to bring?
Please wear closed toed non-slip shoes and dress appropriately for a cooking environment. For safety and sanitary reasons, open toed shoes **including flip-flops and sandals** are not allowed to be worn. We also recommend wearing minimal jewelry and bringing a hair tie if you have long hair. Please have your child bring their apron/chef coat with them each day, and to bring their recipes with them if they choose to bring them home for an evening.
How Many Kids will be registered per camp?
There will be 14 campers at each camp and 7 cooking stations. Campers will work in teams of two to work through recipes together and hopefully make a friend!
Does my child need any prior cooking experience?
No prior cooking experience is required unless you are signing your child up for the Advanced Culinary Arts Camp. In this case, we recommend that your child has attended at least one of our camps.
