PD DAY Camps

Please call our Front Desk at 403-428-4530. You can also email the absence to Emily Penzo at epenzo@calgarypolice.ca .

Our camp is located at YouthLink Calgary, next to Calgary Police Service Headquarters (5151 – 47th Street NE, Calgary). Parking is available by accessing the open gate through Entrance 3.

We strive to be a nut-free facility. We ask that all packed lunches and snacks are nut-free. However, sometimes campers may show up with a peanut butter and jam sandwich for lunch or have eaten peanut butter for breakfast before attending camp. If your camper has a peanut or nut allergy please let the camp staff know.

Our policy is a full refund with the notification of three (3) days before the start date of camp. Refunds or cancellations with less than one week’s notice will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis by the Camp Supervisor and Bookings and Analytics Coordinator. We charge the full camp fee to all no-shows on the first day of camp.

Drop-off is between 8:45AM and 9:00AM. Pick-up is between 3:30PM and 4:00PM. The YouthLink parking lot (Entrance 3) is open for drop-off from 8:30AM to 9:15AM, and from 3:30PM to 4:15PM for pick-up. Early drop-offs and late pick-ups are not available for PD Day and School Break Camps.

Yes, we have a small lost and found available at the facility. Please reach out to the Front Desk at 403-428-4530 with a description of the lost item. We will donate items not claimed by June 30, 2024, to charity.

Please do not send money with campers. Items are available for purchase at the giftshop at the end of the camp day with a parent or guardian present.

If your child requires any prescription medications (including Asthma inhalers) or carries an Epi-Pen, please let your camp leaders know at check-in. All prescription medications that campers need to carry must be discussed with camp staff at check-in. Prescription medications must be in the original pharmacy packaging, labelled with the patient’s name and the physician’s ordered dose on the bottle (pills in Ziploc bags and other packaging are not permitted). Camp leaders will carry all camper prescriptions unless specified by the parent / guardian.

PD Day Camps will be run in a large group with all ages included in the group. Some activities may have groups split into younger and older groups, based on the activity requirements and scope.
