• Please do not bring valuables and electronics (ipods and video games). Campers will be asked to turn off cell phones and leave them in their bags during camp.
Soccer office phone number: 515-271-2016.
• In the event that the sun is shining and it is warm out, we will have camp outside, so please bring cleats and indoor shoes each day.
• To ensure a good camp experience for everyone, campers are expected to be respectful of other campers, staff and facilities. The camp staff will address the camper on the first incident; however a second incident will include a conversation with a parent, and after the third incident we will ask the camper not to return to camp. Please have a conversation with your child about what is appropriate behavior!
