Check-in and Camp Registration
Most registrations for residents and commuters will be held at Robert Purcell Community Center on the first day of camp (see campus map and itinerary for specific details). Most registrations for Day Camps will be held at 8:00 A.M. on the first day of camp at the sports facility for that specific camp. Exact registration times are indicated in the camp itinerary  (sent in confirmation packet after enrollment).

Rules and Regulations
All campers are required to comply with the rules and regulations of Cornell University and the Sports School. Upon receipt of a camper’s application, a registration packet will be mailed which includes a statement of “camper rules and regulations.” After reading and signing the statement it should be returned with the other required forms. Any violation of these rules will result in dismissal from the camp with no refund given.

Insurance and camp forms
Cornell requires all campers to have personal health insurance and to have had a recent physical exam that includes a physician's signature (within the past year of the camp attending). A medical history form, camp itinerary, camper rules, hold harmless agreement and welcome letter will be mailed upon receipt of the camp application and deposit. Those completed forms (available below) and balance of camp fees must be returned no later than three weeks prior to start of camp and are required before your child may participate in camp!

“Extra Nights of Lodging-Early Arrival-Late Departure Plan"
If you need to arrive to camp a day early or depart a day late, or if you are going to attend two or more camps and wish to stay at Cornell for the weekend an additional fee of $60/night will cover the cost of supervision, plus meals and lodging for the additional days required. Activities during extra days include campus tours, movies, visits to local parks, games, and time for laundry, rest and relaxation.

Transportation
We offer pick-up and drop-off of campers at the Ithaca Airport or Ithaca bus station. You MUST contact us in writing, with arrival mode, date and time, THREE WEEKS prior to the start of each camp. There is a $20 round trip fee for this service. Sorry, we do not offer pick up from the Syracuse or Binghamton airports.

Campers traveling from Downstate NY and Northern NJ on a Shortline bus should get off at the North Campus stop at Cornell. This bus stop is at RPCC and within a few hundred feet of Dickson Hall. There is NO FEE for arrival and departure via Shortline!

Meals and Lodging
Meals are provided by Cornell’s award winning dining service.  Considered to be the best college dining in the nation. Campers are provided with unlimited helpings of delicious, healthy cuisine!  All breakfasts and dinners will be in the newly remodeled Robert Purcell Community Center near the camp residence halls (no long walks to meals)!  Some camps will receive box lunches or utilize a dining hall closer to the athletic facilities for lunch to reduce long walks to lunch! Resident camps begin with dinner on the first day and conclude with breakfast or lunch on the last day of camp.

Supervision
Campers are supervised by college students and recent graduates, most of whom are education majors with high school and/or college athletic experience. Campers will not be permitted to travel anywhere without supervision! The Sports School has an on site Medical Director who is responsible for the administration of all medications, treatment of illness and injuries, and the general health and welfare of the campers.

Roommate Assignments
Resident campers must be at least 10 years old. The Sports School recommends sending campers ages 10-11 with a friend. Roommate requests are not guaranteed if enrolling after the early enrollment deadline for that week of camp. Requests are limited to one name and must be mutual. If multiple campers request a popular camper as their roommate, the Sports School will assign roommates based on that camper's preference.

If no roommate is requested, a camper of the same approximate age will be assigned. In some smaller camps (i.e. rock climbing and sailing) it is not always possible to room everyone with a camper of similar age. For this reason we recommend sending your child to camp with a friend/roommate.

Equipment
Cornell will provide equipment such as bats, balls and game pinneys. Campers should bring all personal sports equipment, such as helmet, pads, cleats, gloves and practice gear. Everyone should bring a pillow, sheets, blanket and towels.

Facilities
All programs will use the same facilities as the Big Red varsity teams; Schoellkopf Stadium’s artificial turf field (not available for camps in 2008), Friedman Wrestling Center, Alumni practice fields (grass), Teagle Hall, Barton Hall, Helen Newman Hall, Jessup Fields (grass), McGovern Field (grass) Reis Tennis Center, Niemond-Robison Field (softball) and Hoy Field (baseball). Campers also use the outstanding facilities in Bartels Hall, including Newman Arena (gymnasium), Ramin Room (indoor turf field) and Lindseth Wall (the largest rock climbing wall in North America).

Day camp before and after care
For an additional $50/week camp counselors will supervise children from 7:30-9:00 AM and until 5:00 PM.  Campers will play recreational sports games in the morning and participate in recreational swimming during the afternoon. Day camp before care is $20/week and after care is $40/week. Before and after care for the Youth Sports Day camp is $50/week and does not feature afternoon swimming (included in camp).
