Understanding Class Fees
  • Material Fees are for any consumables utilized in a class. It includes RC cars, rockets, engines, beads, arts and craft supplies etc. These consumables are either used up and/or taken home by the camper.
  • Technology Fees are those charged in technology classes that utilize technology like laptops, iPads, 3D printers, digital cameras etc.
  • Track Fees are costs to maintain and repair the off road tack.
  • Ramp Fees are costs to annually resurface and maintain the ramps for the safety of the camp.
  • Transportation Fees are for attending an offsite class. These rates are determined by the bus company. Off-site classes include golf, rock climbing, gymnastics, and tennis.
  • Site Fees are the costs that off-site facilities charge for utilization of their equipment and space.
Payment Choices

Parents have two payment options. You can either make the full payment at the time of registration or opt for automatic monthly installments. The initial installment will be processed on your registration day, and the total number of payments will be based on your registration date. Registering earlier results in more installments. The last payment is scheduled for on or before July 31, 2024. Our intention is to distribute camp payments over a period of up to 5 months with this approach.

Discover Camp Early Registration and Loyalty Discounts
Each year, we extend a special early registration rate to families who enroll within our designated early registration period. This year, we are offering a $1,000 discount for early enrollment in the full-day summer program. To qualify for this discount, registration must be submitted by March 31, 2024. Early registration not only provides financial benefits to our loyal families but also aids us in effective planning and staff hiring. The unique feature of our early enrollment plan is that full payment is not required until July 2024, allowing for a “Register Now, Decide Later” approach. Early registration presents no drawbacks for families; it offers priority class selection, the best rates, a deferred payment option, and the flexibility to request a refund until June 1st if plans change.

Discover Camp’s “Family & Friends” Referral Program
Discover Camp has thrived through the support of word-of-mouth recommendations and referrals. We express our gratitude to families who refer new families by offering a 2.5% tuition discount. Additionally, this same discount is extended to the newly referred family. There is no restriction on the number of families you can refer, meaning the more referrals, the greater the discount for you. Referrals in the registration system will be tracked through a confidential coupon code provided to returning families via email. The discount will be applied directly to your balance, or alternatively, we will credit your account and issue a check.

Sibling Discount
Each year we offer a sibling discount. Two children receive 5% off total tuition, three children receive 10%, and four children receive 20%. Discounts apply to tuition only and not to other fees.

Refund Policy
Parents may request a 100% refund before June 1st. Unfortunately we cannot offer refunds after June 1st.

Registration System
Our registration system allows parents to create their accounts ahead of registration to speed up the registration process.  The system allows parents to add classes to a cart and lock those spots until they check out.  You are able to sort classes by period and grade.  You must select one class per period that your children are attending.  Each child must be put in a program, ie: Full Day Full Summer before classes are selected.

Important Information

  • The camp will be closed on Thursday and Friday, July 4th and July 5th, in observance of Independence Day.
  • Each camper will receive four camp T-shirts which will be handed out during the week of June 17th. If campers are unable to collect them that week, they can obtain the shirts on the first day of camp. It is encouraged for campers to wear their shirts daily.
  • Every camper is advised to carry a backpack, a water bottle, sunscreen, and any other personal items they might require. Please ensure that backpacks and personal belongings are clearly labeled with your child’s first and last name.
  • The camp does not assume responsibility for campers’ personal property. Campers should refrain from bringing expensive items to camp unless they are essential for a specific class.
  • The camp directors retain the right to cancel or modify any course due to insufficient enrollment or if a change in instructor is necessary. While this occurrence is rare, it may happen occasionally.
  • Camp directors have the authority to remove a camper from the program if their behavior is deemed inappropriate, dangerous, or disruptive to the learning environment of others.

Class Changes

All changes must be made by phone or e-mail by June 1st, 2023. After this date there will be no more class changes.
