Financial Aid
We try to accommodate all those in need of financial assistance. Please complete the online registration form and submit your deposit for summer camp. The deposit is refundable if the camper chooses not to attend Camp or denies the financial aid in writing to the Camp Office within 14 days of receiving notification. Should you have questions, please contact Allison Kaufman, Financial Director, at 503-535-3514.
Campership Donations:
Many families cannot afford full camp fees. Help send a child to camp! Any amount over your camp fees will automatically be applied toward camp scholarships. Todah Rabah – Thank you!!
