Summer Program Registration

Child makes a wish on a spent dandelion.

Summer is around the corner, and the Boys & Girls Clubs of the Pee Dee Area staff have been working hard to prepare a fantastic, educational, and fun all-day program for youth ages 6-12 from 7:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. on weekdays while school’s out. The deadline to register for Session 1 is Friday, May 26, for Florence, Hartsville, Lake City, Pamplico, and Timmonsville sites. The deadline to register for Session 1 is Friday, June 2, for the Hemingway site.

The Boys & Girls Club is the place to be for youth ages 6 to 13! Our Summer Day Camp includes:

Age-grouped quality supervision;
Game room Programs: Contests, tournaments, and free play;
Athletic Programs: Team and individual sports will be provided as well as an on-going physical education program;
Educational Programs: Computer classes, safety programs, drug/alcohol prevention, reading activities, and much more;
Art Programs: An arts and crafts instructor will provide creative lessons and craft opportunities; and
A special event will be held every session!

Field trips and tours are an important part of the Summer Day Camp program. Most trips will cost an additional fee and are filled on a first-come, first-serve basis. No child will be allowed to go on any field trip without their fees paid and a completed field trip permission form signed by their parent.

Summer group clubs are offered to campers who have interests in science, technology, engineering, arts, math, reading, sports, and more.

Breakfast and lunch are provided throughout the summer with breakfast from 8:30 a.m. to 9:30 a.m. and lunch from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. Members may bring money to purchase drinks and snacks throughout the day. We discourage children from bringing lunch during the summer because we don’t have a way to refrigerate or secure it.

All parents of summer day campers are expected to attend a parent orientation. Please contact the Club Director regarding meeting dates. Attendees will learn more about the Boys & Girls Club program we offer and have a chance to meet the staff. Do not miss this important meeting. Your attendance will help to ensure your child has a happy, fun, and safe summer.

The Boys & Girls Club closes at 5:30 p.m. each weekday during the summer, and all members are to be picked up by that time. Any child not picked up by closing will be charged $5 for every 15 minutes after the time of closing. This late charge must be paid prior to the child returning to the Club. Children left at the Club for an extended time after it has closed will be turned over to the proper authorities. Also, no child should be dropped off at the Club prior to its opening at 7:30 a.m.

TEEN SUMMER SPECIAL: The Club will be open for teens (ages 13-18) Monday through Friday throughout the summer from 1 p.m. to close. The summer program session fee is $20 for a half-day program with no additional registration fee. The teens will have access to the teen center, recreational activities, small group programs, and community service projects. Teens may attend the full day program at the full-day session fees plus a registration fee.

All Clubs will be closed on July 3 and July 4, and the week prior to school starting. Clubs will reopen on the first day of school.
