Sold Out? Join our Waiting List.

We would be happy to add you to our Waiting List for any Sold Out week. Often, families need to make last minute changes to their registration and these cancelations could result in a space opening up for your child. There is no payment required if you would like to be added to the Waiting List. To add yourself, please use our online registration system to choose the weeks in which you are interested or email us at info@kecamps.com with your name, your child's name, your phone and email and the week(s) in which you are interested.

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

If you are not a Club Member of Hampshire 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 Campshire in any way, however, he or she must be aware that you are listing him or her as your Sponsor. This policy allows Hampshire 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 2021 will open on March 10th at 9:00AM to Club Members only.  Should spaces remain available, Guests of Members may register after May 1st. You must be enrolled in advance 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 $40 which includes 2 camp t-shirts. We accept ACH Payments and American Express, MasterCard, Visa and Discover.

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 28, 2021 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.

As we enter into Summer 2021, we are fully prepared to take on the challenging circumstances surrounding Covid-19 - we did it in Summer 2020 and we can do it again! The health and safety of all campers, families, and staff members continues to be our absolute top priority. As we are all well-aware, protocols and guidelines surrounding Covid-19 are fluid and as such, we will adapt and adjust our policies, as needed, leading up to and during the camp season.

We encourage you to enroll early as spaces will be limited this summer and we expect that camp will fill up quickly!  We are sure you agree that a summer spent at camp will be more needed and meaningful than ever this year.

Hello Hampshire Families!

My name is Ginny Lockwood and I am an educator and mother of three amazing kids along with an 11-year-old dog who thinks he is my fourth and favorite child! My career has been an incredibly fulfilling and amazing adventure! Over the course of the last 25 years, I have been a teacher, instructional coach and principal, and I currently work right in here in Mamaroneck as a literacy and curriculum specialist.

When not at work, I can be found at the park playing Frisbee with my dog or hiking just about anywhere with a camera in my hand capturing as much of nature’s beauty as possible! I began my own educational journey in Connecticut, where I received my bachelors’ degree in Elementary Education. I then moved straight to New York City where I began teaching elementary school at P.S. 116 in Murray Hill while earning two master’s degrees, the first in Elementary Literacy and the second in School Leadership and Administration. I did this while serving as a Collaborative Lab Classroom Teacher and Summer Institute Instructor for The Reading and Writing Project at Teachers College at Columbia University. Since then, I have led a Teacher Leadership Institute at Brown University and also worked with schools across the country as an Educational Consultant which was absolutely incredible!

My dedication to kids and their families is at the heart of all I do, so much so that when summer rolls around, I actually miss the energy of teaching, learning, and discovery! I am energized by children’s natural sense of wonder and watching each and every child grow into their own unique young person! As a mother, I fully understand the importance of my children being truly seen and valued for exactly who they are and what they love. Every child has so much to offer and I am passionate about creating experiences in which they can thrive! I am an advocate for children staying connected to nature, art and play for as much time as possible, especially during the summer!

Camp provides kids with time to relax and also to stretch themselves personally by trying new things, meeting new people, connecting in new ways and maybe even discovering new interests and hobbies! There is nothing like a summer spent making memories that will last a lifetime and that’s exactly what I know this summer at Hampshire will be for your child! I look forward to meeting and getting to know all of you soon!

Sincerely,

Ginny Lockwood
