What is an Adjustment? A camp adjustment is when there is a change to the weeks that your children will attend camp. It is not a cancellation, just a change in registration dates.
- A $45 fee will be applied to any changes made less than 30 days before your child’s first day of camp.
To make adjustments to your camp weeks, please sign into your Amilia account. Please note that once you remove your child from a camp, the vacant spot will automatically be filled by the next person on the wait list.
What is a Cancellation? A cancellation is when you completely withdraw from the camps that you have already registered for.
- A portion of your deposit is non-refundable. The amount depends on the time of your cancellation:
- $50 per child/week for cancellations made on or before March 31, 2025
- $100 per child/week for cancellations made on or after April 1, 2025
- Refunds (minus the deposit) are available for any cancellation made 60 days prior to your child’s first day of camp.
- Credit (minus the deposit) is available for any cancellation made 59-30 days prior to your child’s first day of camp.
- No refunds or credits are available for cancellations made 30 days or less prior to your child’s first day of camp.
- If the cancellation is due to a medical issue, a doctor’s note is required. Please contact Matty, msimonovich@jccottawa.com to cancel.
- If the full camp payment was made in one installment (paid in full) at the time of registration, please sign into your Amilia account to cancel.
- If you are paying, or have paid, for your camp in installments, please contact Matty, msimonovich@jccottawa.com to cancel.
All camp adjustments and cancellations are per child.
All transactions are subject to a 3.5% administration fee.
Registration for After Camp Care is on a weekly basis. Refunds will not be given for unused days. Drop-ins are not permitted.
When cancelling or adjusting a camp week, where you are also registered for After Camp Care and are therefore cancelling or adjusting your After Camp Care registration, standard cancellation and adjustment fees will apply with no extra charge for the After Camp Care cancellation or adjustment.
There will be no fees for any After Camp Care cancellations or adjustments made on or before May 31, 2025. Refunds will not be available after that date.
At SJCC Summer Camps we believe that all Jewish children should have the opportunity to enjoy a summer at our camps. We provide confidential scholarships for families who are not able to pay for camp.
To apply for a Summer Camps Scholarship please download the application, scan, and send it to sjccscholarships@jccottawa.com by February 28, 2025. Please ensure that your application includes all the necessary supporting documentation. Applications will not be reviewed until all the information is provided.
Scholarships will be awarded on a first-come-first-served basis. Please do not register for camp prior to applying for a scholarship as there are a number of spots reserved for scholarship applicants. Pre-Authorized Payments will be set up upon approval. All summer camp programs must be paid in full by June 30, 2025.
