So you’re ready to sign up for Summer Camp!
Congratulations, we think this is a decision both you and your camper will be quite pleased with, and a whole summer adventure awaits.
Registration is entirely online, and should take approximately 15-30 minutes. You’ll create a user name and password, so you can save your progress at any point and return to the application later. You may already have a user name and password if you have registered for Summer Camp or Family Camp in a previous season.
If you are registering a returning Camper and are already familiar with all of our policies, you can just go on ahead and register right now by clicking here.
Standard Camp Rate (Sessions 1-4 ) - $795
BIG Session (Session 5) - $2890
Polar Bear Rate 11/15/23 - 12/31/23
$750 for Sessions 1-4
$2650 for Session 5
4-H/Rutgers Discount – Minus $25 ($75 for Session 5)
We believe every child should have the chance to go to sleepaway camp. If your family is facing financial hardship or difficulties, please call the Camp Office at 973-948-3550 to discuss the details of applying for an L.G. Cook 4-H Camp Campership or click here to go to our Campership application.
If making a bunk-mate request, please only name one child of a similar age to your Camper.
We can only guarantee if campers mutually request each other, and logistically we cannot accommodate more.
It also works against our mission for too many friends to be in a cabin together as it can stand in the way of the opportunity to make a whole bunch of new friends.
Camp offers the opportunity for campers in different cabins to see each other plenty during meals, classes, and all-camp activities as well. Most of our campers attend Camp without a bunk mate request.
We encourage you to go through our class list with your camper and together decide which three classes they would like to take.
A List of Classes can be found here.
Please be sure you’ve reviewed our policies on cell phones and the internet below.
Payment is required in full at the time of registration.
If your camper is attending Session 5 (the BIG session), you may enroll in a payment plan. Payment in full for the amount of $795 is required at the time of registration. All payment plans must be completed, and balances paid in full by June 15th.
Pre-Season Cancellation:
$75 Fee on Any and All Refunds Before June 15th
$175 BIG Session Cancellation Fee
(Fee is Waived for Credits for Future Summer - All credits are non-refundable.)
Summer Cancellation (after June15th):
There are no refunds after June 15th. A $200 cancellation fee ($400 for BIG Session) will be applied to cancellations received before 7 days of start of camper’s session. The remainder will be credited to a future summer. (All credits are non-refundable.)
There are NO REFUNDS OR CREDITS for cancellations within one week (7 days) of a camp session. We have already purchased food and supplies, and there is limited ability to bring a camper off the waitlist on such short notice.
No refunds will be granted for a camper who leaves Camp early mid-session for any reason, including but not limited to illness, injury, behavior issues or homesickness challenges. Cancellations in cases of accident or illness (with verification from a doctor) or family emergency will be examined on a case by case basis. Any refund in this regard will be less the $200 registration fee.
Please take time to check the dates you wish your child to attend. There is a fee to change your dates after you register. Themes and dates can be found here.
