End-of-day camp preparations (cleanup, car line organization, shuttle parking, etc.) make individual dismissals after 2:15 p.m difficult so expect delays for any requests made after that time.
12:00 and 3:00 PM Carline Pickup & Tags. Munnerlyn Campus dismissal will use a car tag pickup system. All campers will be issued temporary car tags for pickup. Car tags will arrive via email one week prior to your week of camp.
3:00 PM Carline Pickup for Eagle Arts and Musical Theater Stars. Pickup is at the Munnerlyn Center for Worship and Fine Arts. Its car circle is located past the Upper School Drop off in the Hart Bridge parking lot.

After 3:00 until 5:30 Extended Day Pickup. Pickup can be at any time before the 5:30 close of Extended Day. The registration fee for Extended Day is $75. There is no need to call or email ahead for pickups earlier than 5:30 close. Simply pull forward to the curb at the Semmes Gym and follow the Extended Day signage for pickup.

Pickup for Extended Day is at the Munnerlyn's main car circle. Please be aware: there is NO shuttle service to St. Mark's or Beaches at the end of Extended Day, so campers will need to be picked up in the carline by 5:30 p.m.
Full-day camps 9:00-3:00 and summer school classes. While our 9:00-12:00 campers dismiss prior to lunch, our full-day campers and students will stay and have lunch provided in Harden Hall. Our summer program lunch is provided by Sage Dining Services and our daily menu here:
https://www.sagedining.com/sites/episcopalschoolofjacksonville/menu.
Campers may bring a bag lunch if they prefer.
Concessions. An exciting part of the camp day for our campers is a visit to the concession stand. Items range from 50 cents to $2. Send your camper with small bills. *Eagle Arts has a snack included in their camp day so Arts will not visit the concession stand with their busy camp schedule.
