GETTING TO CAMP
We offer two options for day camp transportation: bus service or parent drop-off/pick-up
PARENT TRANSPORTATION
MORNING DROP OFF
8:45 AM - 8:50 AM
AFTERNOON PICK UP
4:15 PM - 4:30 PM
At drop off, parents will be asked to pull through the circle, drop their camper off, and wave goodbye as their camper joins the group at the pavilion.
At pick up, your child please make sure you have a photo I.D. ready. You will tell the staff member which child you are picking up and group they are in, and they will direct your car to where to go. You will need you show your I.D. to your child’s counselor once you get to where your child’s group is being picked up. Your child will have their Daily Dose of Day Camp form and any reminders for the following day in their camp folder.

MEET THE STAFF
Program Director
Jess Deacon
Jess, a Litchfield local and long-time Mohawker is thrilled to return to Mohawk as the Day Camp Program Director. Jess has been a camper and counselor at Camp Mohawk, and is the perfect fit for day camp.
Jess will work alongside caring, mature and well-trained counselors to give your camper the summer of a lifetime. Counselors are selected based on their experience with children, energy, creativity, and a desire to be a positive role model for children. All staff are required to participate in an intensive pre-season on-site training.
Summer Staff
Your Camp Counselors
The majority of our day camp staff are long-time Mohawk campers, who have worked their way up as campers, Counselors-in-Training (CITs), Junior Counselors, and Counselors! These talented young women have committed their summers to Mohawk and its campers for years and couldn’t imagine not giving another year to camp. We have also hired several local staff from other camps & youth programs. We are excited to have so many experienced, skilled counselors to help your campers have the summer of a lifetime.
