Each camper must provide their own lunch. It is the parent’s responsibility to ensure that their child’s lunch has adequate cold packs to insure a safe temperature.
For your benefit, we will provide your child with the opportunity to purchase pizza, drinks, snacks and ice cream.
Alternate Pick Up
For the safety of all campers, campers will only be released to a parent/guardian or to an individual designated in advance by the parent.

Hooptown Practice Jerseys
All campers will receive their Reversible Hooptown Basketball Camp practice jersey on their first day of camp.
Each Camper will receive one jersey for the entire summer.
The jersey will serve as their official camp attire.
Please have camper wear jersey daily.
The Hooptown Canteen
A canteen account is available for the safe keeping of campers’ money to be used for the purchase of water, sports drinks, ice cream, and pizza. Campers are given a canteen break each morning, in addition to their daily lunch period. You may choose to make a deposit into the canteen account at any time during the week. This will allow campers to make purchases without having to carry cash with them each day. Any money remaining in your child’s account can be withdrawn on Friday.
Daily Schedule
Our campers begin each day with warm ups and attendance. After check-in activities, we work on skill development, drills and real time instruction through a variety of competitions and activities. The campers split time in the early afternoon between games and lunch to give everyone space and time to eat and socialize. Our day concludes with basketball shootout activities and the camper of the day closing.
