Camp Oaks

This one-time non-refundable fee includes 2 camp t-shirts and a water bottle for your child.

If you are not a Club Member of Glen Oaks Country Club you must be “Sponsored” by a Club Member in order to register your child for camp. The Sponsoring Member will not be charged in association with Camp Oaks in any way, however, he or she must be aware that you are listing him or her as your Sponsor. This policy allows Glen Oaks Country Club to ensure that all Non-Members attending camp are associated with a Club Member in some way.

All campers must be at least 5 years old by the first day they attend camp. In addition, campers must be potty-trained and able to handle a full day program.

Each day of camp will be a new and exciting experience for our campers as no two days with KE Camps are exactly alike!  Our days begin with Hello Camp, a morning meeting of sorts where, through an assortment of organized activities, campers and staff get to know each other, review the day’s schedule and sing our special camp song! Similarly, we will end our days with Goodbye Camp, a time for wrap-up activities and reflections, SMILE Bands, snacks, and “see you later’s”.   The bulk of camp will be spent participating in a wide variety of activities throughout the day that may include:

The club will provide a delicious and kid-friendly lunch for every camper each day. If you would prefer to pack your own lunch for your child, please do so in a cooler or backpack. A snack will be served each afternoon to all campers. We encourage you to pack some extra snacks for your child as well.

Please note that we are a “nut aware” camp.   We ask that you do not pack any food for your child that contains nuts.   Likewise, the lunches and snacks served by the club will not contain any nuts.   If your child has a food allergy and you have questions about this, please do not hesitate to contact us.

KE Camps requires all campers to wear our official camp shirt each day of the week. Please leave all electronic devices and cell phones at home. Campers should dress in comfortable clothing and tennis shoes. Additional shirts may be purchased at camp. Camp is a place to un-plug! Please pack the following items in a labeled bag or backpack:

Registration for Summer 2022 is open and will continue until we are full. You must be enrolled in advance, however, in order to attend camp. We are happy to accept online registrations up until the night before the start of each week of camp, provided that space is available.

Full payment is due upon registration.  This includes a one-time non-refundable registration fee of $42 which includes 2 camp t-shirts. We accept ACH Payments and American Express, MasterCard, Visa and Discover.  We encourage all families to pay via ACH as all credit card transactions will be subject to a 2.5% surcharge to offset the cost of credit card processing.

If your child has special needs or will require extra assistance while at camp, please contact us before you enroll to discuss!

All requests for cancellations or changes must be made in writing to our office via email at info@kecamps.com. Cancellations made by June 12, 2022 will be refunded in full (less the registration fee).   After that, there are no refunds. We will, however, always offer a credit towards a future week (if space is available) or for next summer.

Don’t forget to take a look at the important camp forms below.

Dear Camp Families, 

My name is Emily, I am the camp director of Camp Oaks at Glen Oaks Country Club for the second summer. I am so excited to kick off this summer with all of you! Currently, I work at an elementary school in Waukee, IA. I absolutely LOVE my job working with kiddos with special needs! Previously, I worked at a local childcare center as lead 4-year-old preschool teacher during school months and during the summer, I was lead 7-12-year-old teacher, also responsible for planning field trips and activities. As you can tell, I just love working with children of all ages! 

My husband, Devon, and I have two girls, Sage and Molli. We also have a cat, Wendy Mae, who we consider another child! I love spending time with my family, going to movies, boating, and playing disc golf. 

I hope to share my creative nature with campers and learn a thing or two from them as well! I can’t wait to meet our campers this summer and make many memories! 

See you soon!
