SUMMER CAMP DEPOSITS AND REFUND POLICIES
Deposits are not refundable or transferable. (e.g. If you register for 3 sessions and attend only 1, the payment due will be 1 week of camp plus 2 deposits.)
Full payment is due by May 31st, or in full if registering after that date. Skyline reserves the right to un-enroll any campers who have not completed payment by this date.
Cancellations after May 31st will result in the forfeiture of all payments.
Cancellations by May 31st will be refunded all but the $75 per session (overnight) or $40 per session (day camp) deposit.
Campers leaving early due to illness/extenuating circumstances may be refunded proportionately, at Skyline’s discretion.
Campers leaving early due to behavior are subject to forfeiting the full fee.
If you have agency assistance in paying for camp, you must have that information (Agency, worker, contact details, amount being covered) ready before registering. We will not hold a place for your camper unless we are certain of covering the cost. We reserve the right to unregister campers if the necessary paperwork is not made available by May 31st.
If you need financial assistance, please fill out this Form and email it to shana@campskyline.org

Please send Overnight camper mail to:

In 2024, the mail took 1 to 3 weeks to arrive at camp. You are welcome to discretely give us the letter(s) at check in. We will hand deliver it mid-week. If you want to mail a letter, please send at least a week or two before camp to ensure delivery during camp.
We will help campers mail letters home if they wish, but please consider sending stamped envelopes.
You are welcome to email campers, using the camper's name as the subject line, to:
camper@campskyline.org
We print these Monday through Thursday at noon to be delivered after lunch. Campers will not have the time to email back, we apologize.
