Sessions, electives, deposits and your own health form. Day camps register by the week; what fits them today is in the table below.
- Parents register each camper and pay a $400.00 deposit. The balance is due 21 days before opening day
- Electives ranked by the family for each week
- Swim levels 1 to 5 on each camper’s record, from opening day’s swim check
- The camp’s own 8-section health form, checked as the parent types
