Swim Checks
If we are swimming, on the first day of camp, we do a "swim check" for each camper to assess his/her ability and comfort in the water. If campers aren't yet comfortable or strong enough to swim, we require that they wear a life-jacket. All campers wear life-jackets when canoeing and certified lifeguards are always present and on duty for all water activities.

Drop off is 9 am and pick up is 3 pm each day. Drop off and pick up are both at the Meeting House (behind the pool). After care until 5:30pm is available for an additional $20 per child.
We have staff on site who are trained in first aid and CPR. We will call you if your child is ill, and keep you updated on their condition (including if they are sick enough not to be at camp). Because this is a day camp only, please do not send medication with your child. If they absolutely must take medication during the hours they will be at camp, please contact the office before registration so that we can make a plan together.
"Schools Out" Day Camp staff are JKR's summer staff who live nearby. They have all completed at least 2 weeks of training on site and passed a mandatory sexual assault prevention training.
We know that your child is precious to you; they are to us as well! Thus, everything we do at camp is done with "safety first" in mind. John Knox Ranch enjoys a good relationship with both the Wimberley and Canyon Lake Fire & EMS services, so we are covered in the event that we need emergency attention. We are also accredited by the American Camp Association, which requires that camps have safety and security measures in place at every level.
Registration is open until camps are full. When camps fill up, we do offer a waiting list. Please contact us to inquire if a camp session you are interested in is full.
