1. What is camp like?
Magical, of course! It is a week at a wizarding school. Each day is broken up between classes and activities. Classes are in subjects like: Potions, Defense Against the Dark Arts, Charms, Herbology, Care of Magical Creatures, etc. Activities are Quadball, games, sorting ceremony, shopping at our sweets and joke shop. Students bring their own lunch and snack. With so many different classes and activities in a day we are both inside and outside at most locations. Some examples/highlights include - The first day one of the classes is wandmaking. The second day one of the activities is our sorting ceremony for first years. Warning when so many witches and wizards get together the magic builds and mysterious things have been known to happen.
2. What is an owler?
The letter you get inviting you to our wizarding school. Includes your passwords for each day. - They usually arrive 1 to 2 weeks prior to camp starting by owl post.
3. What does camp cost?
The price of camp varies for two reasons. The main reason is different locations charge different amounts for their rental. If you click the register button on any of the locations it will take you to a list of all the camps and you can see the prices. There are 3 locations that we run through their local parks and recreation department, Upper Dublin, Limerick and West Chester. Registration for those camps are on their (P&R) websites. We have the links on our site in each location's page.
4. What is a one-nighter?
One-nighters are typically 2.5 hours in length and held at the Brandywine Learning Center in Chester Springs. These events are a great way to get a sample of what camp would be like as well as to reconnect with fellow campers throughout the year.
