Activities
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:

Tennis:

Thankful Thursdays
We are excited to announce the return of Thankful Thursdays into our camp program! In true camp spirit, every Thursday campers will have the chance to give back to their community by working together on a simple, fun and rewarding community service project. Check out this summer’s Thankful Thursday Calendar!
Lunch & Snacks
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.
Packing List
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:
Extra Snacks (Optional)
Flotation Vest:
If you know that your child will be classified as a Bogey (our term for Non-Swimmer) this summer or you prefer your child to be classified this way, please pack a flotation vest for use in the Shallow End of the pool.
Golf Clubs (Optional)
Sunscreen:
Spray for body is preferred
Swimsuit
Tennis Racquet (Optional)
Towel
Water Bottle

Registration & Payments
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 and your child's Health Form Supplement is received.
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!
Cancellations & Refunds
All requests for cancellations or changes must be made in writing to our office via email at info@kecamps.com. Cancellations made by June 5, 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.
Form Downloads
Don’t forget to take a look at the important camp forms below.
Parent Manual
Be sure to read this manual for important and specific details about camp.
TX Camper Health Form Supplement
Download this health form, print, complete and fax or email back to us as soon as you can and definitely before camp begins. You may also log back in to the registration site after you have enrolled your child to upload the paperwork there. We will ask for some medical information about your child during the online registration process. In addition, TX state law requires that a record of immunizations be on file for every camper. We thank you for your cooperation in getting this form to us in a timely manner.
Authorization to Administer Medication Form
Should your child require any medication during the camp day (including an Epi-Pen or Inhaler), we ask that you complete this form and send it directly to our office or hand it to your Camp Director on your child’s first day of camp.
Meet Your Camp Director
Dear Camp Families,
My name is Taylor Van Zandt and I am so excited to meet you all this summer at River Place Country Club. During the school year, I teach 4th grade at Laura Welch Bush Elementary School. I taught for a few years in Round Rock before going back to school for my master's. After that, my path led me to Leander, where I found my amazing family in Steiner Ranch.
In my spare time, I hang out with my Yellow Lab, Nugget, who is a ball of energy and LOVES to run! I also love singing and dancing to music; regardless of how good I am, it is still fun.
I am especially excited to swim in the pool this summer with everyone. For the past few summers, I have been a swim instructor both with a company and privately. I have also been lifeguarding for swim parties. I absolutely love doing anything that forces me to have fun which is part of why I enjoy working with kids!
Let's have an unforgettable summer together!
Taylor Van Zandt
