Some Fine Print:
Note that the schedule is subject to change prior to registration.
If there is insufficient enrollment in any session, that session will be cancelled by SBFS and your entire payment will be returned.
This will be done at least ten days in advance to allow you to make other childcare arrangements if necessary.
A deposit of $200 is required to reserve a place.
In the event that you need to cancel after registering your child, if it's more than two weeks in advance, you will receive your deposit back minus a $75 processing fee.
If it's less than two weeks in advance, the deposit is not refundable.
However, at the discretion of the camp director, all but $75 of it may be applied to a deposit on another session.

         

Showtime!
