Due to rising facility rental and food costs, YouthWrite has, regrettably, found it necessary to increase registration fees for the 2016 year. YouthWrite is committed to making our camps as affordable as possible. Registration fees are subsidized substantially using funds derived from grants, a multitude of fundraising initiatives, and the generosity of our donors. Applicants in financial need are encouraged to consider scholarship options detailed here.

 

 

 

 

While we understand plans can change, we are obligated to make a number of financial commitments prior to camp to secure facilities, staff, etc. Every YouthWrite application includes a non-refundable $100 fee to cover administrative costs. However, a full refund will be made in the even an applicant is not accepted into the program. Cancellations without further penalty are permitted up to and including June 15, 2016 (Peak) or June 22, 2016 (River Valley). No refunds after this date.
