Camperships
Finances should never stop a child from having a camp experience. Campership applications are processed through our registration system. If you need assistance, please contact the office for a confidential conversation about campership opportunities.
We will work with you to make camp happen.
Don’t forget the deposit
A $225.00 non-refundable deposit per full week camp program, or $100.00 per half week program, must be submitted at the time of registration to hold your camper’s spot.
Checks should be payable to “Wanakee.” The balance is due three weeks prior to the start of the camper’s program.
Wanakee retains the right to cancel any registration if a deposit has not been paid within 2 weeks of enrollment or June 15th, whichever comes first.
Processing of payment does not guarantee placement in a specific camp program.
Cancellations and refunds
If an event is canceled by Wanakee, we will help you select another event, otherwise, you may be entitled to a full refund.
If you cancel your registration within 7 days of signing your child up for camp, you’ll receive a refund—as long as your child’s program does not begin within the next 30 days.
If you request a cancellation more than 7 days after registration, or within 30 days of the program start date, your request will be reviewed by the Executive Director. Refunds in these cases may be granted only under extreme circumstances.
Please note that our registration software CampDoc offers camp insurance for an additional fee, which may provide full refund and reimbursement for travel and medical expenses in the event that your child is unable to attend camp.
What happens after I register?
Following online registration, you will receive an email acknowledging that your registration has been completed and detailing the remaining balance (due three weeks before your event). Please submit camper(s) health information in our secure online portal. All health paperwork must be submitted through the online portal. No paper forms will be accepted.
We will send you additional information between now and the start of camp.
Other Important Information
