Then follow the link above to register for camp and select Financial Aid.

All applicants must pay the $25 registration fee per session. For financial aid applicants, this fee will be applied to the final cost you will pay for camp. You can move sessions anytime up until May 15th if you would like without penalty and all fees paid will be applied evenly to your final selections.
-
There is no extra fee for the morning extended day this year. The camp day is 8 AM to 5 PM.
-
After selecting your desired weeks (each session is 1 week), you will see an invoice for the FULL COST of camp. Do Not Be Alarmed & Do Not Pay The Invoice - this is not the price you will pay if you qualify for assistance based on income and family size.
-
After submitting your application and supporting documents, we will contact you to schedule a session to discuss your situation. Once you sign and return your Financial Aid Contract, your cost will be reduced, a new invoice will be issued, and your payment plan will begin.
What to bring to Camp?
Lunch - Campers should bring a small cooler or insulated bag to keep their food cool.
Sunscreen - All parents must send their child to camp with sunscreen and bug spray.
Bathing suit & Towel - We swim Monday, Thursday, and Friday at the Gath Pool. Campers will also swim on fieldtrips days above.
Sneakers - Our campers participate in a sports activity every day. It is safer for your child to wear sneakers during camp.
What NOT to bring to Camp:
Trading Cards or Toys - These items can be distracting to other campers & trading often leads to unnecessary arguments.
Cell phones, Tablets, Handheld Games - These are high theft items, and we cannot guarantee their security. It is illegal for us to lock a school bus and it is not practical for a camper to carry them all day.
Large coolers & bags - We can't accommodate these large items on our bus.
All field trips will happen on Wednesday, with the exception of Canobie Lake which will happen on a Thursday. All trips are subject to change due to weather or other unforeseen obstacles.
We'll be departing from The Club at 9:30AM and arriving 4:00 PM. On the special trips in red we'll be arriving to The Club at 5:00 PM.
