Sessions
Longer Sessions Provide the Most Opportunity for Growth
Our sessions are designed to give campers a consistent experience in small, stable groups. We always plan a full summer of unique experiences and new challenges every session. Our longer sessions provide more opportunities for growth, friendship and fun. The value of longer sessions »
Discounts
Multi-session discounts are included and reflected in the rates listed above for 4-week, 6-week, and 8-week sessions. It is not necessary for sessions to be consecutive to qualify for the multi-session discount. After registering, families can extend and enroll in additional sessions at any time and receive the multi-session discount (space permitting).
Sibling discounts are available. See Sibling Discount Chart »
Parents can also save when it comes to tax season, as Roughing It qualifies as a child-care tax credit for children 12 and under (residential camps do not).
Tuition Payments: Deposits & Fees
A $500 deposit and Camper Application for each child is required to reserve your camper’s enrollment. The deposit goes towards the total tuition amount and is refundable prior to June 1st. There is a non-refundable $75 registration fee, per camper, charged at the time of registration. Full tuition payment is due by June 1st (or at the time of registration after June 1st). Roughing It Day Camp accepts Visa, Mastercard, and Checks for payment. There are no refunds after June 1st.
Tuition Payment Plans
Full tuition is due by June 1st, unless an agreement is prearranged with Roughing It, such as a Roughing It Payment Plan. Payment Plans are subject to the approval of the camp Directors. Learn more about payment plans »

Refund Policy
Prior to June 1st, we will honor a full refund of all deposits and all tuition payments made beyond the deposit, minus a non-refundable $75 registration fee per camper. There will be no refunds after June 1st. There are no make-up days, credits, or refunds for missed days of camp due to illness, including COVID and quarantine requirements, injury, vacations, or dismissals or any other reasons. Roughing It reserves the right to make changes to the camp program without notice by adding, modifying, or canceling activities and camp as deemed necessary by the Directors, and no refunds or tuition adjustments will be made.
Absences & Missed Days of Camp
If your child will be absent from camp, please call or email the camp office as soon as possible and no later than 7:30am on that day. There are no make-up days, credits or refunds for missed days of camp due to illness, injury, vacations, or dismissals.
The Roughing It Experience for 1st Time Campers
We are dedicated to making camp safe, fun, and fulfilling for every child. There is sometimes a transition period when a child starts a brand new experience like camp. If your camper is not enjoying camp, we ask that you work with us proactively and your camper attend at least the first five days of camp. Please call our office to talk with our staff so we can work together to make camp a successful experience for your child. Tips for New Campers »
Full Disclosure
To ensure camp is safe and enjoyable for everyone, parents/guardians must provide Roughing It complete and accurate information about their child on all forms and in all communications. False or misleading information can negatively affect the camp experience and is grounds for dismissal from camp.
Safety Requirements for Program Participation
In order to ensure the health and safety of everyone at camp, all campers must meet and follow Roughing it’s Safety Requirements for Program Participation. If your child has a special need, disability, impairment, or condition that requires medication or other accommodations, please inform Roughing It and request a program modification or accommodation. All accommodation requests, enrollment forms and assessments must be submitted by April 1st in order for us to adequately assess the child’s needs and any reasonable accommodations needed. Please contact us if you have questions.
Once a parent/guardian submits a modification request, Roughing It will consider that request on a case-by-case basis. Roughing It will make individualized determinations based on the specific facts of each request. Roughing It may make reasonable modifications, unless the modifications would fundamentally alter the nature of its services or unless the individual poses a direct threat to the health or safety of others that cannot be eliminated by a modification of policies, practices, or procedures.
