Before and after care is available for an additional charge of $50/week on top of the camp fee.  Before and after care is available from 7am - 5:30pm. 

Weekly camp fees are $225. 

Camp week 1 and 6 fees are $180 due to the camp being closed on Monday, July 1 and Monday, August 5.

You may also choose to provide a $25 non-refundable fee to hold a spot for you in each camp week.  This will guarantee you a place in the camp and allow you to pay for camps in seperate payments, rather than all at once.  The $25 applied to each week as a place holder will go towards the registration of each particular week.
