Who can apply to Summer Service Camp?
The application process is open to youth who are residents of Lakewood, regardless of where they attend school. Students who will be in 7th, 8th, or 9th grade in the fall may apply.

Do campers bring lunch?
Yes, please make sure campers bring a packed lunch for every day of camp. It can be a lunch bag/box or a disposable bag. Campers should also bring a water bottle each day. It is helpful to have a bag or light backpack.

What should campers wear?
Campers should wear clothing that allows for activity; we have game time every day, including the first day of camp. Closed-toed shoes that do not slip on a gym floor are a must for every day of camp, right from the start. Campers will know if they need special clothing for a service site or activity after the first day. As a rule, though, gym shoes and clothes for activities are a must.
