January Camper Updates
[This update was scheduled to be sent via email to registered summer camp participant parents on January 10, 2023. However, our registration portal is currently experiencing technical difficulties and we are unable to send the message directly to families. The information applies specifically to registered summer camp participants.]
Dear Camp Greenville Family,
Happiest New Year to you and your family! We hope the holiday season was restful and fun, and full of great family memories.
We are so excited that it is finally 2023 because that means the summer countdown can officially begin! We are 5 months and 1 day away from the first summer 2023 check-in. It seems so far away but will be here before you know it.
So what happens this time of year at camp? A lot actually!
Although it is winter, we are in heavy reset and prep mode. On the operations side of camp; the maintenance team is busy with larger time-intensive projects, the kitchen team gets organized and plans our yummy menus, and Pretty Place Chapel weddings and visitors are busier than ever. On the program side of camp, we are building the summer staff team, fine-tuning parts of the summer schedule, booking adventure trips, and implementing new ideas and changes!
Long story, short: we’re getting ready for your arrival this summer - already!
Another fun thing happening is the preparation for our yearly family camps. Registration opened yesterday for the 2023 season. Memorial Day and Labor Day weekends have already filled to capacity, but we still have space in our End of Summer family camp and our Spectrum/Stargazer weekends. Spend time on the mountain and experience camp with the entire family. All ages are welcome! Head to our website for more details. For specific questions, reach out to our Director of Family Programs, Alex Beavers.
Important Update
We have updated and clarified our cancellation and refund policy for 2023. This applies to all summer camp participants. Please review the details below.
2023 CANCELLATION AND REFUND POLICY (updated Jan 2023)
By May 5, 2023, all registration fees must be paid in full, and all required paperwork must be completed within your Parent Portal.
Before May 5, 2023, our summer camp cancellation and refund policy remains very flexible. If your circumstances change, just let us know, and we'll provide you with a full refund.
After May 5, 2023, refund requests for circumstances beyond your control (such as family relocation, serious injury/illness, emergency hardships, etc) will be considered on a case-by-case basis and are not guaranteed.
If you realize you must cancel (at any time), you are required to notify the camp office in writing via email to Stacie Simpson, including any relevant information that might be used to determine refund eligibility.
What’s Next?
As we get further into the winter and spring we will be sending out specific summer information as it relates to summer details (packing list, themes, etc).
For now, here is a general timeline of what to expect when:
January 15, 12pm: Deadline to make changes to your monthly payment plan details before payments are processed on January 16.
February: Forms (ie; health history etc) will become available. Don’t worry - we’ll let you know and send instructions.
March: Summer Weekly Themes will be announced and a packing list will be sent.
April: Meet the summer team and camp prep information will be provided.
May: All balances and forms are due on or prior to May 5, 2023
As always we are here for any questions, concerns, or just to say hello!
