All Day Camp! - Week 3 SUMMER CAMP MENU Italian Cuisine Camp (9-12 pm): Learn to make Italian favorites from Rome, Venice, Sicilian cuisine, and Florence.

American Favs Camp (2-5 pm): Cookies, Mac n cheese, pancakes, cupcakes, pizza, burritos, sliders, donuts, French Fries & so much more. These are recipes kids love to eat! (Note: The menu is subject to change based on ingredient availability.) ABOUT SUMMER CAMP: Whether your child likes to bake, create, roast, sauté, fry, or blend, we have a camp for all interests. Our camps are organized into 3 age groups so all chefs team up with their peers. Group ages are as follows: Tiny Chefs ages 4-6, Lil’ Chefs ages, 7-9, and Teen Chefs 10+. All chefs will get to taste everything that they cook. All recipes will be sent home for later preparation. A child may also pack up any uneaten tastings to share at home. This is a hands-on cooking camp. FOR MORE INFORMATION: Visit our FAQ page at https://lilchefschool.com/kids-cooking-summer-camp-faq.html. Please view our full list of Summer Camps at https://lilchefschool.com/kids-cooking-summer-camp-schedule-registration.html. PLEASE NOTE: **We are a nut-free school that can accommodate ONLY and ALL nut allergies. We cannot accommodate any other allergies and/or food restrictions. Children with gluten or dairy sensitivity can participate but not taste. ** If a class/camp is not filled we will combine age groups as we see appropriate and assign a task(s) based on skill level. For our Tiny Chefs ages 4-6, we use time fillers because our little ones get tired of cooking for 3 hours, and/or it is difficult to keep their attention for this long period. So our Chefs will play games or let our Tiny Chefs color or other food-related games to finish our time. Unless you purchase a 30-minute Pre-Care pass, you may arrive NO MORE THAN 10 minutes early for check-in and you MUST stay with your child until the start of camp. Also, unless you purchase an After-Care pass, any guardian late picking up their child will be charged $50 for every 10-minute increment upon completion of the camp – unless we are notified of the tardiness ahead of time. FEES ARE NON-REFUNDABLE All Sales are final. Early-bird tickets sell fast and are sold on a first-come, first-serve basis. While there are no refunds, you can reschedule for another camp, if space permits. A $10 transfer fee will be charged per student per camp.
