INSURANCE
The family health insurance is the primary payer. A copy of the insurance card must be on-file in the Camp office. For non-negligent accident occurrences, the Camps’ insurance will cover all costs above and beyond those reimbursements made by the family’s insurance plan, up to a maximum of $2,500. All non-accident health care requirements which are not Camp-related will be at the parent’s or guardian’s own expense. A copy of the insurance settlement must be submitted with all claims for reimbursement.
SCHOLARSHIPS
There are several financial aid options available to ease the expense of sending your child to camp. The sooner you begin looking for financial assistance, the better your chances of finding it. Your congregation may have scholarship and discretionary funds; check with your Rabbi, Cantor, Educator, or Congregational President. For more information, please contact the camp office.
FORMS
Prior to Camp, a forms pack (medical, activities, transportation) will be distributed to every camper. These forms must be completed and on-file in the Camp office prior to the start of the Camp Session. For the health form, a physical exam is required within six months of the camper’s arrival at Camp.
