Summer Nursing Discovery Camp 9.0

While the main objectives of the camp are educational, it is also meant to be fun. Activities will include:

• Rock wall climbing
• Swimming
• Movie night
• Game night
• Afternoon recreation and social time

Please note, students are not allowed to leave campus during the camp. Once students are dropped off, we provide a safe and controlled atmosphere. Besides, you’re at camp! Take this opportunity to get to know other campers and enjoy the facilities.

Students will be under constant supervision by Summer Nursing Discovery Camp 9.0 staff, including ASU faculty, staff and students. Your student’s safety and well-being are our utmost concern.

Students will be housed in ASU’s award-winning Plaza Verde residence hall.

All meals will be served in the university cafeteria, The Caf, featuring an all-you-can-eat buffet and various specialty dining options. It is just a short walk from Plaza Verde.

Check in will run from 3-5 p.m. on Sunday, June 9, at the Plaza Verde residence hall. Camp counselors will be there to direct you where to park and help you sign in. Please do not unload luggage at this time.

Dinner will be served to all campers on Sunday from 5-6:15 p.m. in The Caf. Camp activities will begin at 6:30 p.m. with a general camp meeting in Plaza Verde.

Arriving on time is essential. Students must be checked in to the camp and moved into their rooms before the 6:30 p.m. camp meeting begins. We will hand out the schedules when you check in, and then go over the camp goals and safety items at the camp meeting.

One Note: Camp activities will conclude at 9:30 p.m. each night.

• A great attitude, excitement to learn and desire to make new friends.
• Two bed sheets, one blanket, one pillow, one pillowcase, towels, washcloths, deodorant, and other personal toiletry items. (Optional: sleeping bag instead of sheets/blanket)
• Comfortable jeans, athletic pants or shorts and shoes suitable for indoor lab and outdoor activities. 
• A swim suit for pool activities. We will be using the university pool.

Please label your luggage with your name and address using luggage tags or masking tape. A small quantity of snacks is okay, but there are vending machines available. Change for the vending machines is helpful. HINT: $15 is probably not enough, $100 is too much.

All students must wear their camp lanyard for the entire week. We will hand out the lanyards when you check in. The lanyard serves as your meal ticket, general camp I.D., and access to your room in Plaza Verde.

Campers can bring cell phones to campus. During learning activities and presentations, cell phones are placed in silent mode.

Each afternoon, students will have recreation/free time in and around Plaza Verde. Basketball hoops, board games and pool tables will be available. Students are encouraged to bring games and other activities to do during these times. Meeting new people and making new friends will be strongly encouraged. The students will be under constant supervision by camp staff.

Check out from Plaza Verde will begin immediately following the camp slide show and simulation lab tours (approx. 12 p.m.). Please meet your students at Plaza Verde to get all luggage to your vehicle. Once you have loaded your student’s belongings and have checked out, you are free to leave.
