To limit exposure, parents will not be admitted into the room, however photos of the LEGO® fun will be shared at the end of all programs. Although our staff will try to capture all of the excitement, we welcome our participants to bring photo taking devices (such as iPad, phone, camera) to share memories with families. Please note, devices will only be used for photos and will not be used for other purposes. Each session will have a brief outdoor snack break and parents are welcome to provide a snack for their child.
At Brick Tech, we strive to make our camps as safe and fun as possible for our participants. To prevent the spread of COVID, we have implemented safety precautions to reduce exposure to participants in our camps. All participants will be required to wear a mask, LEGO® materials will be distributed individually, and frequent disinfecting and sanitizing will occur throughout the camp. For full details, check out our COVID Guidelines.
