Camp provides all the basic sporting equipment. We do not recommend bringing your own equipment or personal items. Camp will not be liable for anything that is lost, stolen, or damaged. Campers should bring a backpack with their lunch, sunscreen and swim gear (if needed.)
What should we bring to Camp?
Please make sure your child a lunch with plenty of snacks, a water bottle, and SPRAY sunscreen with your camper. SPRAY sunscreen is preferred for quick and easy application. The Camp provides all athletic equipment.
What are behavior expectations?
It is understood that campers are to behave in a polite and respectful manner towards other Campers and Staff while at My City Allstars. When at Camp, the Campers must listen and follow Staff instructions. It is understood that the parents will remind their children of the correct way to behave while in camp. If, at any time, a parent can no longer support the policies of the camp they are encouraged to withdraw their child. Profanity, verbal disrespect, name calling, running away, bullying, taunting, or fighting, etc are not tolerated with varying levels of consequences based on circumstances. Campers who repeatedly violate the rules and guidelines or commit an egregious offense will be expelled without a refund. It is vital that all Campers feel safe at Camp. Parents may not upbraid, insult or otherwise abuse staff and/or other campers.
Do you accept Special Needs Campers?
Camp is a socially interactive and physically active experience. If you are unsure if your child meets this criteria, has an IEP or 504, or takes medication, please contact us. By signing up for camp, you are telling us your camper is fully fit to participate with no accommodations. Please contact us if your child requires medication, special help, or has had behavior issues in the past. We reserve the right to cancel a reservation if we feel we cannot accommodate your child's special needs.
What personal items can we bring?
Please help us maintain a SCREEN FREE ZONE! Do NOT to send cell phones, gaming systems, electronic devices, or sports equipment which might become damaged, lost or stolen. Students are not allowed to bring any kind of lighters, explosives or weapons to the camp (this includes Swiss army knives, etc.) It is understood that My City Allstars, its staff and subsidiaries, and facility hosts are NOT responsible for any damaged, lost or stolen items which the students may elect to bring with them to My City Allstars.
What type of Training do Counselors Receive?
Counselors, Staff and Coaches are carefully interviewed and vetted to ensure they'll be a good fit for My City Allstars. All Staff will receive a Staff Manual and attend training meetings. Depending on the age and role of the Staff member, they might need a background check, special certifications, or CPR and First Aid training.
What is the Camper to Staff Ratio?
Each group has two counselors per 13-17 Campers. Each activity has at least one staff member assigned, sometimes two. So ratios average between 1:4 and 1:8 depending on the type of activity.
Can Campers Use Cell Phones at Camp?
We vehemently DISCOURAGE Campers having Cell Phones. We have had too many negative experiences. This has nothing to do with us not wanted parents and children to be in contact with each other but everything to do with what content Campers can share/show each other and how it prevents Campers from engaging in Camp activities. Campers can come to the Office if they need to reach a parent and vice versa.
What activities are offered?

Photography and Filming Use
My City Allstars primarily uses camper photos for the parents, social media or marketing purposes. Photos may also be posted on the website or on marketing materials. If you do not want your child photographed, please contact the site your child is attending. With so many Campers and some more camera shy than others, we cannot guarantee that your child will be photographed!
