Financial Aid

Making camp more affordable

Thanks to our generous donors, summer camp financial aid is available – up to 50% of camp fees, on a sliding scale. Some applicants will receive offers of less than 50%, and we are not able to provide aid to all applicants.

How to apply

  1. Register online for each child planning to attend camp. Registration, including the $125 deposit, is due per camper with the aid application.
  2. During registration you’ll be asked if you’re interested in financial aid and directed to the online application. No internet access? Request a paper copy from the office.
  3. Submit your application by April 30. Late or incomplete applications cannot be considered.
  4. CYC notifies all applicants of their award by May 15.

Good to know

  • If the awarded amount isn’t enough for your camper to attend, indicate so on the determination letter by June 1 and your $125 deposit will be refunded. Only financial aid applicants are eligible for a deposit refund.
  • All camp fees must be paid before your camper attends. If payment arrangements are not honored, the amount already paid will be forfeited.
