WRESTLING Dear Parents and Campers, We are excited to have your child participate in our summer wrestling camp at Germantown Academy. The camp is directed by our varsity coaches, along with guest clinicians and several of our varsity athletes. There are a few logistics that may answer any questions you may have before arrival on the first day:
Campers are grouped together by age, weight and ability.
The day begins at 9:00 a.m. and dismissal is at 3:30 p.m.
Drop-off and pick-up is in the Lower School Quad.
All late arrival and early dismissals are handled through the Welcome Center.
Swimming is optional. Interested campers should bring a swim suit (towels are provided).
If you do not choose to purchase lunch, a sack lunch can be brought from home.
Campers are encouraged to bring a water bottle or some other sort of refreshment to keep hydrated throughout the day.
Running shoes are recommended as we will be going outside for a jog at the start of each day. Wrestling shoes and Head Gear are required. Shorts and T-shirt (some campers bring more than one) are all that is necessary.
