InMotion 1-Week Camps

FAQ

Q: What exactly is inMotion Summer camp? How is it similar and different from other day camps?

A: inMotion Summer Camp is a therapeutic camp for kids who could boost their social-emotional skills all while still enjoying a fun and exciting camp experience! Our programs will have many of the best parts of traditional day camps: sports, varied activities, fun counselors (who happen to be therapists!), and lots of time outdoors. Our camp differs from other camps in that it is staffed entirely by clinical therapists who will be supporting your child in targeted social-emotional goals. Every activity is heavily based in our very own Activity-Based Therapy.

Q: How do I know if my kid is a good fit for your camp (and vice versa)?

A: This camp is for anyone ages 8-11 who (1 or more of the following)…

• struggles with hyperactivity and/or impulse control

• is unsure of himself

• has a hard time making or sustaining close friendships

• gets frustrated and gives up easily 

• is anxious

• lacks confidence in athletic settings

• may not thrive in a traditional camp setting (or could use a boost before the camp session starts)

• may have a challenging time with the transition back to school after the summer break (for the last two sessions)

Q: What does a typical day of camp look like?

A: A typical day at camp consists of numerous fun activities such as capture the flag, gaga, relay races, obstacle courses, arts and music. These activities are designed and facilitated to help build your child’s communication, emotional regulation, and social skills. In addition to the activities, which provide a chance for kids to practice skills with their peers, therapeutic group discussions will be woven in throughout the day. Lunch will be a time to decompress and chill: pack a lunch, please!

Q: Will camp be repetitive if my son signs up for 2 or 3 weeks?

A: While the overarching goal of each week will be similar, each week of camp is designed to stand alone from or in tandem with the other two weeks. There will be different activities so that kids can enjoy coming for 1, 2, or all 3 sessions this summer!  Kids who sign up for more than one week will have chances to practice skills with different groups of peers.

Q: Can my child participate in less than 5 days/week?

To get the full benefits of camp, it is recommended that they attend full time. We understand that life circumstances happen and missing one day will not ruin the camp experience. Please note: a doctor’s note is required for refunds for any missed days.

Q: What is your refund policy?

A: All deposits are non-refundable and non-transferable. Cancellations made prior to 14 days of each session will receive a full refund minus the deposit fee. Cancellations made within 8-14 days before the start of the session will receive a 50% refund. There will be no refunds if cancellations are made within 7 days of the start of the session. In the event the session is unable to run due to low participation, you will receive a full refund (including your deposit).
