Meals
Lunch is included in your camp tuition and will be provided each day. If your child has any food allergies, please notify camp staff so we can provide healthy options for your child.
Camp Bank
We offer the opportunity for campers to bring cash for the "Camp Bank." The camp bank ensures that campers do not lose money for the camp store as we keep a running tab of how much money each camper has. The camp store sells a variety of snacks, water, Gatorade, and basketball cards during the snack times listed on the schedule.
What to bring
Basketball shoes, appropriate basketball attire, swimsuit, towel, water bottle, raincoat, money for camp store
How are campers divided/grouped?
In general, campers are divided by age and not skill level. Though during the week coaches may make some minor adjustments based on skill level to help a player's overall experience, understand that we cannot guarantee or know in advance the overall competitive level.
Health Forms
All campers are required to have health insurance coverage and provide the College with recent medical reports. A report of a physical examination (complete with health history) conducted within the last 18 months as well as an immunization record completed by your doctor will need to be submitted no later than two weeks prior to the start of camp. Gordon does not require that a specific form be used, only that all information is submitted. Doctors will usually mail or fax these upon request.
Camp Waivers
All campers are required to have an Emergency Contact, Health History, Camper Release, Sunscreen, and Epipen (if applicable) Form on file. These forms are available HERE, on the top navigation bar on the home page, and will also be attached to your confirmation email.
Registration/Drop-off and Pick-up
Registration will be held just inside the entrance of the Bennett Center on Monday morning. Please bring all required information (physical/immunization forms, emergency contact, camp bank funds etc.). Check in at the registration table will be required on the first morning only, regardless of whether your balance is paid or not. If you son carpools to camp with another parent, he can check himself in.
Athletic Training/Medical Staff
Certified, full-time athletic trainers and student trainers provide immediate treatment to campers in need. Trained EMTs are available on campus and local hospitals are easily accessible if necessary. If your child has a pre-existing medical condition, requires medication, or carries emergency medication such as an Epipen, please notify the camp director and/or the medical staff. If your child carries an Epipen, you are required to submit a Permission to Administer Epipen Form which is included in the Camp Waiver Forms download.
Camp medical advising and oversight is provided by Gordon Athletics team physician, Dr. Navid Mahooti MD, MPH, of the North Shore Medical Center (978-882-6700).
Do you offer Discounts?
Yes! We offer a Gordon College Employee Discount, Sibling Discount, and Multi-Week Discount. If you are a Gordon College employee, have sibling children wishing to register for camps, or have a child wishing to attend the same camp for multiple weeks, please email the camp director requesting the promotional codes that can be used with online registration.
What if I have to cancel a camp?

Correspondence
All correspondence for camp is handled through email so please provide your most relevant email address when registering. We do not share this information with anyone. Additional information and camp updates will take place more often as the start of camp approaches, so please check your email regularly.
