Frequently asked about Safety Village

What ages does Safety Village accept?
Safety Village is open to children ages 5–6. Camps publish their own age cutoffs, and some run mixed-age groups internally; check the registration page for that summer's grouping if your child sits at a boundary.
How much does Safety Village cost?
Safety Village publishes $60/week for the standard session. $65.0 for 2-week session. Final cost depends on session length, sibling discounts, and whether extended care is added on.
What are Safety Village's hours?
Safety Village runs 10:00am-12:00pm or 1:00-3:00pm. If those hours don't quite cover your work day, check whether extended care or early drop-off is offered separately.
Who runs Safety Village?
Safety Village is operated by the local parks department. The operator type matters for tuition policy (refunds, financial aid eligibility) and for what kind of staff training pipeline the camp uses.
Does Safety Village provide lunch?
Safety Village does not include lunch — campers bring their own. Most day camps without provided lunch are nut-free or nut-aware, so check the allergy policy before packing. Frozen water bottles double as ice packs and drinks; insulated lunch boxes hold below 40°F for about four hours.
