This will provide a sample of what is offered throughout the summer. Meals rotate on a bi-weekly schedule, but some items may be offered more than once a week or on a daily basis, like our pizza station.
Special dietary needs can be addressed and food allergies are not a problem.
Aramark in now a "nut-free" food service provider at Farmingdale State College.
We also provide a snack for all campers towards the end of the day.
*Campers that bring their lunch, eat in a separate air-conditioned café setting, in the same building, just beside the “buyers” cafeteria. This is per instructions from Aramark, as each camper on the lunch program is accounted for and free to eat as much as they like while in the cafeteria. Our staff accompanies the campers in both locations and a trainer is on-site during lunch time.
Requests for changes to a camper's schedule can be made by contacting the Future Stars Farmingdale office directly via email at farmingdale@fscamps.com. We'll work to accommodate all requests, though changes are subject to availability.
Future Stars Camps operate rain or shine! If rain or thunderstorms occur, Farmingdale State College has indoor facilities so campers can continue building their skills and having fun until the weather clears. Programs will rotate through our indoor spaces and we also set up our inflatables, inclusive of an 90' obstacle course, gaga pit, soccer dart board and street soccer course.
In almost every case, there is one staff member for every four to eight campers.
Low camper-to-staff ratios ensure personalized attention and a supportive environment for your child. Specific ratios vary by program and age group to maximize engagement and safety.
Campers are grouped by age, skill level, and social needs to ensure a thriving and comfortable summer. We prioritize friend requests and offer a flexible approach to placement, ensuring each child finds the right fit and makes new friends.
Most programs are co-ed, but there are a few gender specific programs. See specific programs for details.
Every camper needs daily essentials, such as sunscreen, a healthy snack, lunch, a water bottle, bathing suit and towel, appropriate footwear, and, depending on the weather, rain gear.
For program-specific equipment, such as cleats for soccer or a glove for softball, an information packet and email will detail exactly what your camper needs. Future Stars has some extra equipment available if items are forgotten.
