The fee for your first week of camp is due in full at the time of registration (overnight camp requires $100 deposit only). If you are registering for overnight camp or multiple weeks of day camp, you may choose to draft the remaining balance on June 1st, 2017 or in smaller increments each month (all fees must be paid prior to your camper’s session). You must arrange for automatic credit card or bank draft payment at the time of registration. YMCA membership is not required for participation.
