San Mateo Camp Information

| Check-In/Out Information

Drive through will be the primary method for drop off AND pick up for all families Monday – Friday. Please stay in your car in the drive through line and you will be greeted by staff to assist you.

Staff will greet you for drop off on 36th Ave. in front of the campus. Please stay in your cars and staff will escort campers into camp.

PLEASE NOTE – Expect the Monday drop off to take a bit longer than the rest of the week as our staff will be checking in with each family to ensure we have the most accurate information for their campers.

To keep campers safe, we require a photo ID from an adult on your camper’s authorized pick-up list every day at check out/pick up.

Please note there will be construction on the Abbott campus during the summer. You will likely see this work on the front end of campus, including construction vehicles parked by the drive through entrance, but rest assured our programs take place in a contained area where there is no active work being done. We always prioritize camper safety and will modify camp operations as needed to ensure no overlap with the work happening with camper activities.

If you have any questions or concerns please connect with the Camp Director on site.
