• How do I make PAYMENT?

  The 2025 camp fees are reflected within each camp description. Payment may be made by credit card (MC, Visa, AMEX, or Discover).
  

  Full payment is due upon registration if a payment plan has not been selected.

  Refunds will not be granted after May 1, 2025. There are no prorated fees or refunds for campers arriving after the start of the session, leaving before its completion, or missing any time during the camp.

  A one-time $25 non-refundable registration fee per camper will apply at the time of registration.

• What is your CAMP CANCELLATION POLICY?

  While it is always a last resort, Summer at Laurel reserves the right to cancel any camp due to low enrollment. Should this happen, camp registrants will be notified a minimum of 14 days prior to the start of their scheduled camp, and a full refund will be issued.

• What is your DISCIPLINE POLICY?

  All participants have the right to a positive and safe experience while attending Summer at Laurel. As part of this right, campers are expected to follow and support our expectations of participation, positive attitude, and respectful behavior at all times.
  Behavior or language perceived by the Summer at Laurel Staff to be disrespectful, hurtful, unsafe, or threatening may result in camper’s suspension or dismissal from the program. This extends to any behavior that undermines our goal to create a positive experience for each individual attending our program.
