To ensure equity in the application process, we utilized a lottery system for Summer Camp that was open from Jan. 17-29, 2024.

Update as of March 15, 2024:

We aim to provide prospective applicants with a clear understanding of the enrollment outlook for our camp sessions prior to completing their application. As of March 15, the waitlists for Weeks 1-10 range anywhere from 32-95 families, all vying for approximately 100 available spots each week. In contrast, Victors Week currently has a substantially shorter waitlist, with just one family awaiting placement.

If a waitlist exists for a given week, individuals who apply after the lottery will be placed at the end of the waitlist. Visit the Application Guidelines page for full details about eligibility and the lottery process.
