Town of Aurora Summer Camps are proud to utilize ePACT Network, a health and safety software to better support all our members and make it easier to submit critical data securely! ePACT is a secure digital solution that allows you to quickly share the health and emergency information we need, and also provides us with powerful communication tools to ensure we have a way to message you in the event of an illness, injury, or larger scale emergency.

Why are we using ePACT?

• To save you time – With ePACT, you only need to complete your child’s information once, and then verify that it is still correct for additional programs or subsequent years (which can be done in just two minutes)! And if you need to update something quickly, just log-in and update it and we'll be notified immediately.
• To eliminate high-touch processes – Collecting data electronically and checking members in/out using contactless methods that ePACT offers means a significant reduction in close human contact and shared items like pens and paper sheets.
• For better security and privacy – ePACT's high encryption levels and commitment to security means your data on ePACT is safe. ePACT allows us to limit and track access.

How does it work?

• You’ll receive an email invite to share information with Town of Aurora Summer Camps.
• Click “Complete Request” to create a free account, or log-in if you already have an existing ePACT account.
• Enter the required information, like medical conditions, and share it with Town of Aurora Summer Camps so that program staff have access.

ePACT makes it far easier for you to share emergency information with us, while also ensuring we have access to records anytime, anywhere with the mobile app – even without an internet connection. Rest assured that you always own your account and the information in it. Have questions or feedback? Please email our Summer Camps staff or visit one of these helpful ePACT websites:

• ePACT for Families FAQ
• ePACT for Families Help Center

The Town of Aurora's Community Services Department strives to provide a fun and safe camp experience for all campers! All our Camps are NUT AWARE, please do not send your camper with any products that contain or may contain any nuts. 

You will receive a pre-camp email prior to your camp program with all the details you will need. Please ensure your e-PLAY account is up to date with your correct email address.

Parents/Guardians will receive email communication the Thursday before camp begins regarding any necessary information. Please be sure to update your contact information in your e-PLAY account.

The Town of Aurora follows all regulations associated with the Child Care and Early Years Act pertaining to camp. Due to this, all children must be 4 years of age by the start of the designated camp program. This means that children who are turning 4 years of age after the start of the camp (even if only by a few days) cannot participate until the day they turn 4. Currently, we are unable to offer camps to children 3 years or younger and no exceptions will be made.

Please send your camper with the following items:

• A nut free lunch and 2 snacks
• Plenty of water
• Indoor shoes
• Appropriate clothing for outdoor play
• 2 masks

Extended Care is intended for parents who need extra flexibility in their schedule or additional supervision for their child(ren) outside of regular camp programs.

Children will be supervised by our enthusiastic and qualified Camp Staff, who will offer a variety of fun activities such as games, crafts, board games, cards, and more.

Extended Care is only available for our FULL DAY Camps.

During the summer, some camps will take part in weekly camp swims at the S.A.R.C. or A.F.L.C. Campers must be a minimum of age 7 to attend a camp that swims.

At the first Camp Swim of each week, new campers who would like to swim independently will take a camp swim test. Campers may try the swim test once per week, with successful results kept on file for the remainder of the summer.

For campers that would like to try the swim test ahead of the summer, the Town of Aurora is excited to offer Pre-Camp Swim Tests in the Spring. These sessions provide an opportunity for campers to try the swim test in a smaller group setting and gain familiarity with the test format. If campers pass the test, results will be kept on file for the summer and campers will not need to repeat the test during camp. If campers do not pass the test prior to the summer, they can keep practicing and retry during camp.

Pre-registration is required, and a small pre-testing fee applies. For questions regarding Camp Swims, please email our Summer Camps staff

Note: Swim tests must be completed during Pre-Camp Swim Tests or during Camp Swims. Any swim tests completed during Leisure Swims will not apply to Summer Camps. Results of camp swim tests completed at the S.A.R.C. are applicable for camp swims at both the A.F.L.C. and S.A.R.C. Results of camp swim tests completed at the A.F.L.C. are only applicable for camp swims at that facility.

The Town of Aurora's Community Services Department strives to provide a fun and safe camp experience for all campers! All our Camps are NUT AWARE, please do not send your camper with any products that contain or may contain any nuts. 

You will receive a pre-camp email prior to your camp program with all the details you will need. Please ensure your e-PLAY account is up-to-date with your correct email address.
