Please read through each section with your child. When you finish, click on the link below and fill out the form. Campers CANNOT attend camp without agreeing to Camp Policies on the form. This form serves as a waiver form for all educational services, such as camps, school events, tutoring, or any other educational services.
 

A. Registering Your Child

Registrations must be completed either online or submitted on our Camp Registration forms. Failure to provide all required information may result in a child not being allowed to attend camp. All campers must fill out our Camper Liability forms, and other forms necessary for each type of camp. Information from these forms is required not only for the safety and well being of your child, but from our Insurance Company as well.

B. Payments and Cancellations

Each camp requires either a deposit or full payment for camp registration; lack of deposits for payments will result in a child losing a spot in camp. Since we are a small camp, we limit the number of participants, and therefore require deposits. Deposit and payment amounts vary depending on the camp, but policies regarding deposits and payments are below:

• A $50 deposit is required for all campers. The deposit holds a spot in camp until full payment is made.

• All deposits are due within 2 weeks after initial registration. If registration is made less than 2 weeks from the start of camp, full payment is required.

• The deposit is refundable if cancellation is made AT LEAST 2 WEEKS PRIOR TO THE START OF CAMP. Cancellations made less than 2 weeks prior to the start of camp will result in LOSS OF DEPOSIT.

• Full payment is required within 2 WEEKS of the start of camp.

• If full payment is made and then a camper cancels 2 weeks or more before the start of camp, the payment is COMPLETELY REFUNDABLE.

• If full payment is made and then a camper cancels less than 2 weeks prior to the start of camp, the full payment, MINUS A $50 DEPOSIT, will be refunded.

• If full payment is made there are NO REFUNDS once camp starts. 

C. Activity Changes

There are occasions when a planned camp activity must be modified due to difficulty locating materials, change of interests among our campers, etc. If any change are made, an alternate activity will be planned. 

D. Behavior Rules and Expectations

1. Each camper must treat everyone else at camp with respect and consideration.

2. We expect all campers to be respectful and responsible at all times.

3. Cursing, swearing, and foul language is not acceptable and will not be tolerated.

4. Stealing is not tolerated. If you find something that does not belong to you, you must return it to the rightful owner or bring it to the lost and found (ask your counselor). We do reserve the right to search personal belongings, with the camper present.

5. Inappropriate physical touch or suggestive behavior is not acceptable and will not be tolerated. (Zero Tolerance)

6. Guns, knives, fireworks or any other kinds of weapons are not allowed. (Zero Tolerance)

7. We will not tolerate intimidation, verbal or physical abuse, or destruction of property. (Zero Tolerance)

8. Alcoholic beverages, illegal drugs, smoking, or tobacco products are not allowed. (Zero Tolerance)

If at any time a camper is unable to uphold these expectations or behaves in a manner which jeopardizes the physical and/or emotional safety of him/herself, other campers, Modern Minds Learning staff or the integrity of the camp program, the Camp Director will notify the parent(s) or guardian and steps will be taken to resolve the situation.

Zero tolerance / Discipline

If the Zero Tolerance rules are broken, there will be no warning, parents will be contacted and will be required to make immediate arrangements to pick up the child. We do not want to send anyone home, but we make it priority #1 for everyone to feel safe and comfortable when in our care! We will go over expectations with children when we arrive at camp the first day. This includes the zero tolerance and discipline policy. We expect that everyone will behave in a respectful manner towards other children and staff. Children will receive a verbal warning for disruptive or inappropriate behavior. If problem persists, campers may be taken out of activities for a block of time (starting with 15 minutes). 

E. Emergency Medical Authorization & Liability Release Information
