On the application form there will be a spot for you to identify your first, second and third choice of camp weeks you would like to register your child for. Due to limited space, we will do our best to accommodate your request and may limit the number of weeks students can be registered for to allow for more children to participate in our camps. Once you have submitted your application, you will receive a follow up email from our agency noting which camp your child has been accepted or waitlisted for.
