“Thank you so much!! Cameron said he had a fabulous time at the zoo yesterday. Sending Cam to Rush Hour for camp has been one of the best decisions that we have ever made. I think Cam is excited that school won’t be back full time so he can still go to camp with you guys!! Have a great day and we look forward to seeing you tomorrow morning!”

Team Costa

“I took camp here and it was super fun. They teach you where you turn to go faster, and in the first two days I was there I cut down 5 seconds on my best lap! Great staff, and experienced with the karts and they are very nice!”

Amanda

“Logan is going to start racing quarter midgets—in addition to racing with you all of course!!! I’ll say it forever, but sending Logan to camp last summer and learning everything from your amazing staff (specific shout out to Chris) was a game changer for him in so many ways. And he still learns something every time he goes—he had a blast at Spring Break camp. We appreciate you all!!”

“The kids have a ton of fun and become very fast racers. If anyone is looking for a very affordable camp that has your kids wanting to come back every day, Rush Hour Karting Camp is it.”

Chris

“I wanted to thank you and your staff so much for creating such a great experience for Jonny this past week at camp. When I came to drop Jonny off in the mornings and pick him up in the afternoons the staff at the front desk were always so friendly and helpful. The counselors were great with him as well. It is truly comforting to know that he was in great care and having an awesome experience at the same time. He will definitely be doing this again!”

Audrey

“We had an amazing time. I can’t tell you how many smiles I saw, and believe it or not, I think the adults had a better time than the kids! The food was divine. The service, impeccable. Thank you once again for making an incredible memory for us.”

Things to know before Karting Academy / Summer Camp

Payments: All payments must be made at least 1 week prior to the first day of camp, to guarantee your spot. We DO NOT pro-rate days. Spots are sold on a WEEKLY basis only. If your child will not be attending a certain week, we will need a two week notice, or no refunds will be given. No refunds / partial refunds are given for missing any days of their allotted week.

  • All kids must be at camp no later than 8:45 am and must be picked up no later than 6:00pm.
  • You must sign your child in and out. Do not drop your child off without seeing a counselor.
  • LIMITED CELL PHONE USE: Campers are allowed to bring electronic devices. However, if they are used inappropriately, we will take them away for the remainder of the day until pickup.
  • DISCIPLINE POLICY: Must be reviewed and you must sign this registration form indicating you agree to it.
  • T-SHIRT: 3 t-shirts will be provided to each camper. All kids must wear a camp T-shirt each day. If your child comes to camp without a Camp T-shirt, we will have them for sale for $10. You will either have to purchase a new one, or go home and get one. It is suggested you put your child’s name on his / her shirt, and anything else they bring to camp.
  • GLOVES: Over the summers, one thing we have noticed with the campers, hands get tired and a little callused after so much time on the karts. So, we highly recommend bringing in a pair of gloves. NOT winter gloves, but baseball gloves, or any light, thin gloves will work. If you do not have a pair, we have some for sale here, for $34.
  • SHOES – The best thing to wear is CLOSED TOE / TENNIS SHOES.
  • It is encouraged that you bring SUNSCREEN, in the spray-type, for the kids to participate in outside activities and for field trips. Please put your child’s name on their sunscreen.
