Early Enrollment Credit - $200 (per child)
Campers returning to camp in 2025 after attending a session in 2024 by the following deadlines will receive this credit. Their (first-time) siblings are also eligible.
2024 First Session Attendees - Enroll by July 29
2024 Full Summer or Second Session Attendees - Enroll by August 26
NEW Early Pay in Full Credit - $400 (per child)
Campers coming for the first time or returning to camp in 2025 with full balances (2025 Tuition only) paid by July 29 (2025 First Session enrollment) or August 26 (2025 Full Summer/Second Session enrollment) will receive this credit. Please note: the Early Pay in Full Credit cannot be combined with the Early Enrollment Credit (max discount in those cases is $400 per child). If a New Family (no returning campers) opts for Early Pay in Full Credit, we will provide the $400 (per child) PLUS the $200 (per child) credit.
Pioneer Credit - $100 (per child)
Families with at least one child attending camp in 2019 or earlier will receive this credit for all children enrolled in 2025.
First-Time Family Credit - $200 (per child)
Families enrolling a child for the first time within one week of a personal visit (including Zoom) or camp tour will receive this credit.
Discovery Camp Credit - $250 (per former Disco Camp participant)
Campers who attended Discovery Camp in a prior summer will receive this credit one time. A former Disco Camp participant can also be considered eligible for the Early Enrollment Credit (if they have a sibling who will be returning from a previous summer at camp for 4/3/7-weeks), or potentially eligible for the First-Time Family Credit (if they have no siblings who have ever attended camp before for 4/3/7-weeks).
Sibling Credit - $1,000 (per family, for families enrolling at least 3 children for 7/4/3 weeks)
Deposit & Refund Policy
Enrolling a child for 7/4/3 weeks requires a deposit of $2,000 per child (Discovery Camp requires payment in full). All monies paid, including the $2,000 deposit, will be refundable upon written request until January 1, 2025. After January 1, 2025, there will be no refunds.
