LET'S GET STARTED!
$295 Per Person
When a teenager attends Southland's summer teen camps, they are placed into a cabin of approximately 8 campers of like gender and age. Each cabin has a counselor who is dedicated to making the week of camp a success. Southland's teen camp serves young people who are going into the 7th grade through those who have just graduated from high-school.
All campers must submit a completed registration form two weeks before the camp week to avoid being charged an additional registration fee of $25. The Early Bird Discount (register on or before February 01 to save $25) applies to those who have submitted a completed registration form and the $25 registration. Camp opens for registration on Monday at 2:00 PM and continues till 4:30 PM. Departure is Saturday by 9:00 AM.
Arrival: Registration is from 2 - 4:30 p.m. on Monday. Camper activities begin at 5:00 p.m.
Departure: All camps are dismissed after breakfast on the last day of camp at 9 a.m. No camper will be allowed to leave early without prior written permission from a parent.
Sponsors: Due to limited sponsor housing and growing numbers, we are asking that only two sponsors per ten campers register to ensure a spot on site. Any additional sponsors that register will be put on a waiting list for camp housing and must be willing (if needed) to book their own hotel. The camp fee will be discounted for those staying offsite. Sponsor children do not count as “sponsors” or count towards camper total. Available housing is first come, first serve. Individuals should note any special requests (i.e. allergy or handicapped needs) in the comment section. We are no longer able to offer the sponsor discount previously offered.
