PAYMENT POLICIES & CALENDAR
PAYMENT POLICIES
Deposits
A $30 deposit is due for each week of camp at the time of application. Third Party Billing, Wisconsin Shares Child Care Assistance, and CLTS, contact Billing & Registration Office for deposit information. Deposits are non-refundable, but may be transferred to another week of camp based on availability.
Balance Payments
Payments are due by 12 PM on the Monday prior to the camp week. All final balance payments are scheduled to be drafted, per the schedule below, via the card provided online at registration or a Payment Authorization Form. Please contact the Billing and Registration Office if alternate payment arrangements are needed. Payments will not be accepted by camp staff at drop off or pick up. The YMCA will not distribute payment reminders or bills. It is your responsibility to pay the remaining balance on time. Camp payments are non-refundable, and your child will not be permitted to attend if the balance remains unpaid.
Late Fees
Late payments will result in a $15 late fee per child, per week. All payments MUST be made before attending camp.
Cancellations, Refunds, and Credits
If a cancellation request is initiated by 12 PM on the Monday prior to the start of the camp week, a Y program credit will be issued minus the $30 deposit. If a cancellation request is initiated fewer than seven days prior to the start of the camp week, no Y program credit will be issued. The entire deposit and balance paid is forfeited. If payment is not received prior to the cancellation deadline, you are still responsible for the full balance, regardless of whether or not your child attends camp. Refunds will not be issued for any Summer Day Camp programs.
Changes
To request a change in schedule or to cancel, please contact the Billing & Registration Office by 12 PM on the Monday prior to the start of camp and complete a camp change form. Changes may not be honored due to camp availability.
