Register for multiple camps in one purchase
When completing registration information, the system will retain information you have already entered during that session. So, if you’d like to register for multiple camp sessions and/or for multiple children, we recommend doing so in the same order session. Then, you’ll have an option that appears to auto-fill the lengthy registration form, which can be edited as needed.
