Financial
How much is the deposit?
- The deposit is $125.00 per child per camp week. For example, if you send two children ("Bobby" and "Jenny") to two weeks of camp each, then you would need to send in $500.00 ($125.00 for Bobby's week 1, $125.00 for Bobby's week 2, $125.00 for Jenny's week 1 and $125.00 for Jenny's week 2).
Can I simply pay in full at the time of registration?
- Absolutely, and this is our preference! You can even save significantly by registering AND paying in full early. Please note that there are pay in full dated deadlines associated with each camp program that we offer. If you register and pay in full on or before March 15, 2009, you receive the lowest rate. Simply paying the deposit and registering early will not guarantee you the lowest rate - it will only guarantee you a space in a camp program. If you ned to wait and pay at the latest possible time (three weeks before camp), your balance due is the rate specified for the "After May 15" date minus any deposits or payments you have paid to date.
I have several children. Do you offer a multi-child discount?
- No, we do not. We used to offer this discount, but we have re-structured our rate plan to offer more significant discounts across the board. We continue to offer needs-based scholarships to families needing additional assistance in paying summer camp fees.
I am an ELCA pastor. Do you offer any discounts for my children?
- No, we do not. Again, we used to offer this discount, but we have re-structured our rate plan to offer more significant discounts across the board. We continue to offer needs-based scholarships to families needing additional assistance in paying summer camp fees.
I paid the deposit when I registered my child. When is my final payment due?
- Your final payment is due no later than three weeks prior to your camp week. We reserve the right to drop any registration that is not paid in full by the final payment due date.
Will I receive a receipt of my final payment?
- We do not send final payment receipts unless requested. If you need an official receipt, please make that request at the time you send in your final payment.
Do you offer financial assistance?
- Yes. We have a needs-based scholarship fund that is set up for the main purpose of allowing children to come to camp that might not otherwise be able to do so due to financial need. We do not want to see children denied the opportunity to come to camp simply due to lack of funds. Feel free to download the scholarship form and email to scoleman@llmi.org, fax to 828-687-1600, or mail to our Registration Office. Or you may call the Registrar at 828-684-2361 to request a copy of the scholarship form.
If I should need to cancel my child's registration, is the deposit refundable?
- No. The deposit is non-refundable and non-transferable.
What if I pay in full at the time of registration, what portion of my fee is refundable?
- If you cancel at least 4 weeks prior to arrival, you may request a full refund minus the deposit. If you cancel with less than 4 weeks notice, but more than 72 hours notice - you may request 50% of full fee minus the deposit. No refunds will be given for less than 72 hours notice.
