The registration fee for the dance week is $730. The fee includes room, board, and tuition. A deposit of $125 per camper is due with each application.. You are encouraged to pay the full fee in advance. In the event of cancellation before March 28, all but $25 will be refunded.

To avoid problems associated with slow mail, all applications postmarked by March 20 will be deemed to have arrived on that date. IIf the week is oversubscribed on March 28, a drawing will be held. Applications postmarked after March 20 will be considered in order of receipt. Notification of acceptance or waiting list status will be sent during the first week of April. In the event of cancellation on or after March 28, the full $125 deposit is non-refundable.

The full camp fee is due on June 1. If you must cancel after June 1, we will retain $400 if we are unable to fill your place from a waiting list. The full fee is non-refundable after June 30. Please note that any fees paid after June 30 must be paid in full by cash, cashier's, or traveler's check.

The smooth operation of camp depends on the efforts of work scholarship campers! Work scholarships (covering up to 1/2 of the fee) are available to all and will be considered upon request. Scholarship requests must be accompanied by the $125 deposit.

Only full-time registrants, generally 18 or over, can be accepted. Younger applicants, if accompanied by an adult, will be considered.

For the health of all camp participants, we strongly encourage the use of nontoxic and fragrance-free products at camp. Complete information will be included in the acceptance packet.

For your convenience, if you don't have access to our printed brochure, we offer a registration form that you can fill out online and print out, to be mailed along with your check. (We don't offer direct registration online at this time.) You may also download a PDF file of the entire English Week brochure, which includes a registration form. (This is a 2.3 MB file, so be prepared for lengthy download times.)
