What is your camper to counselor ratio?
We will have at least 1 counselor for every 10 campers.  Some days we have 1 to 5, depending upon what we are doing.

What about safety?
We do have activities that a lot of camps don’t have, but safety is our # 1 concern. All our counselors have lifeguard certification and they are always supervised by Lucy or Mary. Because we (Lucy and Mary) are both parents, we view the camp from an adult, parental perspective that puts the safety of the campers in the front of our minds at all times.  In open (dark) water, the campers are required to have a float whenever they are in water over their heads.
How much is each session and what is the deposit?
Our sessions vary from $220 (4-day session) to $285.  Please check the schedule page for the cost of each week.   We ask that $100 be paid with your registration to hold your spot and the remaining amount be paid Monday morning, the first day of each session (or earlier).

You used to have a north pick-up. Will you still have that?
No, so sorry. We have eliminated the North pick-up location.

What is your tax ID # and address?
74-291-8091; PO Box 92034, Austin, TX  78709-2034

Will there be someone at West Enfield and what do the campers do until they leave for the field trip?
Yes, we will arrive at West Enfield at 7:30. We play group games, cards, make lanyards and chill out in the hammocks.

How do you travel?
We travel in two air-conditioned buses.

What do you do when it rains?
We go bowling, skating, watch a movie, go to a covered pavilion or whatever we can think of that is inside.

Will my 2 children stay together, or do you divide children by age? 
We usually stay together in one group, so most of the time they will have the opportunity to be together.  

Can I pay by credit card?                                                                                                                                                Yes, you can pay with Paypal.  See our registration page.

Are any sessions full yet?
 We keep the schedule page updated. Check that.  Look to the far left column to determine which sessions are still open.

Why can't the kids bring Gameboys or CD players?
We are no longer going to be the Gameboy or MP3 player police.  If they bring them, they can use them.  However, we will not be responsible for lost or stolen items and kids who sit and engage in solitary play miss out on important socializing that goes on when we are traveling.

Do you offer a sibling discount?
Sorry, no. Our costs are the same and we strive to keep our costs as low per child as possible.

What is your cancellation policy?                                                                                                                                         If we have notice 2 weeks before the session begins, we will refund your deposit, less $20.    If you cancel less than 2 weeks before the session begins, you will forfeit your $100 deposit. There is a fee of $20 for switching from one session to another.

In addition to the weekly fee, is there an additional fee to cover the cost of your field trips, e.g. Schlitterbahn, Volente Beach, etc.  No, the weekly camp fee covers the entrance fee to all field trips.  There is no additional fee; no hidden costs.  We prefer campers do not bring money to camp (except on special days to buy food in certain parks that don't allow us to bring in lunches).

Do you have a waiting list for sessions that are full?                                                                                                          Yes.  Send us an email with your request.

How many children are in each session?                                                                                                                                about 45

Do we have to pay full price if we have a season pass to Schlitterbahn or Fiesta Texas?  W  We've been burned by giving the discount up front and then not getting the pass.   Now, our policy is that if you give us the pass ahead of time, we will refund $20 (our group price).  Sometimes parents get upset because they give the pass to their child with instructions to give it to us, but the child forgets.  Parents sometimes think we should remember to ask the children if anyone has a pass, and sometimes we do, but we don't feel like it's our responsibility to remember to ask.  We have a lot on our minds.  It ends up with hard feelings all around.   So, we have the policy to refund your money; please give us the pass when you drop your child off in the morning.  We will happily refund $20.                     We've had trouble with the season pass thing before.  Our policy is that if you give us the pass ahead of time, we will refund $20 (our group price).  I've had parents get really mad at me because I told them I would refund their money and the child forgot to give me the pass and the the parent got mad at me because I didn't ask the child for the pass... it was hard feelings all the way around.  So, we have the policy to refund your money; please give us the pass when you drop your child off in the morning.  We will happily refund $20.
