If you need to pick up at an unusual time, enter through the main entrance. Let the front desk staff know you are there for camp pick-up. Anyone picking up a child must provide a photo ID for verification. Explora will only release your child to designated individuals you provided in your registration information. Please let camp staff know if a change to the designated individuals is needed. Please do not take your child off-site at any time without informing the camp staff. Campers must be picked up no later than 15 minutes after the end of the program unless campers are participating in aftercare.
