IMPORTANT INFORMATION:
Participants are required to attend a minimum of 3 days per week. Participants must uphold the minimum attendance requirement each week to be eligible to register for future weeks. If this requirement is not met, this will result in a loss of funding.
Participants are required to register in advance. Space is limited. Being registered for a week does not guarantee registration for any future weeks. A camper has a secured spot in the week only after registering and receiving a receipt or confirmation of registration.
Camp Dream is only for children 5 years to 12 years old. This scholarship cannot be combined with any other City of Arlington scholarship.
If a weekly camp is cancelled due to low registration, the program participant will be moved to a future week of camp as space allows. A parent must withdraw a child from an activity at least 72 hours prior to the start of the first class in order to transfer the child to another week of camp. The more notice we receive, the greater the chance of us being able to fill the slot with another qualifying individual.
