No, your child doesn’t need a physical to attend LADC. However, you do need to fill out the Health Assessment Form that can be found in the Parent Information Packet.

No. All trips and activities are inclusive in the cost of camp including lunch and snacks. You may choose to send a home lunch with your child if you prefer.

LADC uses Arrow Charter buses and the City of Manhattan bus driven by MPRD staff members who have a valid Kansas CDL.

Yes. The Riley County Health Department inspects LADC once each summer. The inspection is unannounced and normally lasts three hours. It will not disrupt the campers' schedule however. In addition, the State Fire Marshall inspection is done before the camp starts.
