Children are welcome, too! A full program of supervised child-care activities is planned for children of all ages on Saturday, 2 p.m.-midnight. You may choose the Saturday-evening-only option (starting at 5 p.m.) for a reduced rate. Meals and snacks are included with the evening babysitting program. Activities during the weekend depend upon the age group and may include movies, art projects, or sports. The Family Fun Afternoon will begin at 2 p.m. on Saturday, following the lobster bake, and is open to all ages. Any children attending the event without a parent must be preregistered with the child-care program. The Family Fun Afternoon may include cookie decorating, art projects, a moon bounce, or music.
Children should bring a bag or backpack for their belongings. Items to bring include a swimsuit and towel, extra shorts and shirts, and a sweatshirt or windbreaker. Please clearly mark names on all items.
All children must be preregistered to participate in the child-care program. We cannot accept walk-ins to the child-care program because of limited space, so please register early. Please refer to your registration form for details.
Free drop-off child care will be available Friday afternoon during faculty lectures in the Diamond Building and again Friday evening during reunion carnival in the Pulver Pavilion. Parents must check children in and remian in the building.
