Registering online will insure accuracy of data, provide a secure setting for sensitive information, and will prevent campers from being left out of a camp that reaches maximum capacity while their forms are being sent by mail. Online registration closes at least 24 hours prior to the beginning of each camp session.

Many of our camps do fill up early. If you would like to sign up for a waiting list, please complete the registration process and you will be automatically added to the waitlist if the session is full. You will not be charged when being added to the waitlist, but will be invited to make payment if a spot becomes available for you. Please note, not all camps maintain a waitlist once the session is full.

The Camp Health Staff services are available for all camps. Should an injury or illness occur during the daytime, health staff will determine the best course of action for medical attention. If an injury occurs that potentially limits the ability to continue participating in the camp, the Health Staff Supervisor will evaluate the participant and contact the parent/guardian and discuss care options. If the participant needs immediate physician referral, they will be transported to the UW Hospital by health staff, and the parent/guardian will be contacted. Cost for treatment of injuries/hospitalization is the responsibility of the parent/guardian. For all overnight camps, health staff, including a nurse are available in case of any emergencies.
