FAQs ABOUT Y CAMP What are the three price tiers? We recognize that families have different abilities to pay and have developed this voluntary three-tier fee structure to best meet everyone’s needs. Simply select the rate appropriate for your family’s budget. This is completely confidential and does not impact your child’s experience in any way.• Tier III reflects the full cost of sending a

camper to the program selected. If your family is able to pay this amount, please do. Thank you.

• Tier II is a partially-subsidized rate to help families who are unable to afford the full cost of the camp program. Choose this rate if your family needs a partial subsidy.

• Tier I is a substantial subsidy for families who need assistance to send a child to camp. Choose this rate if your family needs it.

If Tier I still presents a barrier, financial assistance is available through an application process, which requires income documentation. What are your payment & refund policies?• A deposit of $100 per session per child must

accompany the registration form ($50 for registration before December 31, or $50 if applying for Financial Assistance).

• Final payments are due June 1st. • Deposits are non-refundable after June 1st.

We require a minimum of two weeks’ notice prior to the session start date to qualify for a refund of program fees (less the deposit).

• Cancellations made within two weeks of the session start are nonrefundable. Considerations may be made for extenuating circumstances at the discretion of the Administrative Director.
