APPLICATION AND TIMELINE FOR NEW FAMILIES

Interested in Summer 2027? Registration coming soon!

Tuition 
Tuition is $12,200 for our Full Session and $7,600 for Wendies. Tuition covers all program expenses including trips and laundry service. We collect an additional $150 to cover camper specific incidentals (trunk rentals, camp store purchases, airport shuttles, etc.). Any unused portion will be returned or can be donated. We require a $1,000 deposit (fully refundable through January 15, 2027) to secure your child’s space at the time of registration. 

Tuition Assistance
The Onaway Board of Trustees and Staff are committed to a robust Tuition Assistance program. Families request an application during the registration process to request an application. At the time of registration, we require a $150 deposit (fully refundable through January 15, 2027) to secure your child’s space while applications are being processed.
