You can upgrade to the Cancellation Coverage for $300 for 4-weeks or $450 for 8-weeks.

*Cancellation Coverage is 75% of the non-refundable camp cost. Cancellation must be made no later than one month prior to the start of your son’s camp session.

September 15 through November 15 = $500 penalty

November 15 through January 15 = $1000 penalty

January 15 through March 15 = $1500 penalty

After March 15th = full responsibility for 8-week balance
Financial Aid
Every Camper Belongs
At North Star Camp, we believe every child deserves the chance to experience camp — to grow, explore, and belong in a place that brings out their best self. We know that camp can be a life-changing experience, and we never want finances to be the reason a camper can’t join us.

Our Financial Aid program helps make camp possible for families who may need some support. Awards are based on need and availability, and every application is handled with care, respect, and complete confidentiality.

Honoring Those Who Serve
We are especially proud to offer additional support for public servants and first responders — the teachers, nurses, firefighters, police officers, EMTs, postal workers, and countless others who dedicate their careers to serving our communities.

This initiative reflects our core values of gratitude, empathy, and community. It’s our way of saying thank you to those who spend their days helping others grow, heal, and thrive.

How It Works

Families can apply for financial aid as part of the regular camp registration process.

Applications are reviewed individually, and awards are granted based on financial need, family circumstances, and available funds.

All information shared is kept private and used soley for determining aid eligibility.

If your family could benefit from assistance, we warmly encourage you to apply. Every year, our community makes it possible for more campers to experience the magic of North Star — and we’re committed to ensuring that tradition continues.
