How registration works

Three steps, and a person at the end of them.

  1. Choose a week and register.For a full week more than 30 days away, pay a CA$500 deposit or the whole fee; closer weeks and Creator Sessions are paid in full. Checkout shows the exact amount before you pay.
  2. A person reviews it.Within a day or two, someone on the camp team reads your registration and confirms your place.
  3. Not a fit? Everything back.If we cannot accept your registration, everything you paid is refunded, the deposit included.

Who is on site

Each week has an audience set in advance: adults 19+, designated family weeks, or supervised youth camps for ages 13 to 18. Families attend designated family weeks only. Booking order never changes who a week is for.
