Enrollment: Enrollment is open to girls and boys presently in kindergarten through 6th grade (or 12½ years of age).  A limited number of 4½ (by June 1) to 5½ year olds will be accepted for our pre-k groups.  Although consultation with the Director is not required prior to the enrollment of pre-K campers, parents are encouraged to call if they have concerns or questions about the program or length of day.

Campers may request to be placed with a friend and while the camp will try to honor such requests, no guarantees are made.  Groups will be formed in the spring and contain approximately 15 to 24 campers per group.  Campers may be placed in mixed grade groupings such as 1/2, 2/3 or 3/4 depending up enrollment. 

Campers are placed in groups based on current school grade.

2008 Session Dates and Hours

Open House: On Sunday, June 22, there will be an Open House for all registered campers from 2 to 4 p.m.  Campers have the opportunity to meet their group counselors, tour the specialty areas, and drop off their gear.

Extended Day: An AfterCamp program is available from 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m., Monday through Friday, except for August 15, the last day of camp when all campers will be dismissed at 12:30 p.m.  Parents are responsible for picking up their children promptly by 6:00 p.m. to avoid late fees.  Sign-up forms will be sent in the spring.  The fee is $10/hour per child. 

Tennis Clinics: Clinics will be offered during AfterCamp hours in selected weeks.  Details available in the spring.

Lunch: Campers bring their own picnic lunch to camp each day.  Meadowbrook provides milk at noontime and a light morning and afternoon snack.  Campers staying on for the extended day program receive another snack.

Health Forms: Each camper is required by state law to have a health physical within 24 months of attending camp, to meet all immunization requirements, and to provide a current health history (Day Camp Forms).

Transportation: Bus transportation service from designated pick-up/drop off locations is included in the tuition and campers are strongly encouraged to utilize it.  Sign up forms will be sent in the spring.

Registration and Tuition:

November 5, 2007:  Registration for returning campers, their siblings, and Meadowbrook School students begins.

December 3, 2007:  Registration for new campers.

Early registrations will be dated and processed for the first day of the appropriate registration time.  Applications are processed on a rolling basis and parents will either receive a confirmation by mail or a phone call if there is no space for your child.

2008 Tuition Rates

A non-refundable $200 deposit per child per session ($300 for 6 weeks) is due with the application.  The deposit reserves your child’s space and is applied to the tuition fee.  The tuition fee covers all camp charges except AfterCamp, overnights, and field trips. 

Enrollment Changes/Withdrawals: If a camper drops a session, the deposit for that session will be forfeited.  If the change is made after May 1, the tuition payment for that session will also be forfeited unless the camp is able to fill your child’s position in his/her group.  Refunds will be processed in September.

Billing: Parents will be billed for tuition fees January 31, with payment due in full by March 1 to maintain their child's reservation.  A 10% family discount will be given when three or more siblings attend camp. 

Extension Weeks:  Campers may enroll now for six weeks provided they select Session I plus weeks 5 & 6 or Session I plus weeks 7 & 8.  Requests for single extension weeks in Session II will be accepted later in the spring.

Limited Term Campers: Meadowbrook may, at the Director's discretion, accept a few campers for less than four weeks during Session II depending on availability.

Please Note: Meadowbrook cannot give refunds due to school/camp conflicts, routine illness, or change in family plans.  Campers may not trade a Session I week for a Session II week.  In case of withdrawals or dropped sessions after April 1, a tuition refund (less deposit) will only be given if the camp is able to fill your child’s position in his/her group.
