What parents say
"Policy of $100 non refundable deposit is extremely predatory. Spots fill up in March and they have a waitlist so you have to sign up in advance. Even if you cancel a month before you will never get back that $100. No other camp I’ve signed up for has a non refundable deposit that high. They say it’s for “materials for the camper” but if you cancel the next child on the waitlist will take that spot, so it’s a lie. I’d recommend any other camp."
