Important Registration Information to Note:

We are thrilled that your child is going to spend the Summer with us. Whether you are a returning family, or this will be your first summer with us, we can't wait to share the summer with you!

Before you get started checking out the camps we are offering or starting the registration process, there are a few things we want to point out;

1. Registration for all camps will open on Monday March 20, 2023. All dates are outlined in a chart below in the Registration Deadlines and Payment Options section.

2. A $50.00 non refundable** deposit will be required for each week of camp registered for at the time of checkout. This $50.00 will be deducted from the overall total of your camp fees. Remaining balances due date is also listed below in the Registration Deadlines and Payment Options section.

3. Each year we are required to update all of our Member information through our RecDesk forms. For those of you who have been with us already this year (After School, PA Day etc) you will be required to complete the *new* Member Information and Consent Form 2023-2024. We understand this is a lot of information, and can take some time to complete, but it is important that we always have the most current information for your child. If this is your first time attending a BGC program, you will also be required to complete these forms in the registration process outlined below.

Children who may require additional supports (physical, behavioural, etc.):

BGC South East is a recreation based program, with staff ratios of 1 staff to every 15 children and is not typically equipped to support complex needs or behaviours in all programs/locations. Possible arrangements for support(s)/ modifications may be available upon request. These supports are dependent/limited to: the program and staff's training, funding allotments, and the complexity of your child's needs. Additional or Enhanced supports (1:1 or support workers) above the 1:15 ratio is not guaranteed.
We urge Parents/Guardians/Caregivers to reach out via phone call OR email to the program site to further discuss the child's needs, options available for their child(ren) and to determine if our programs will be a good fit for the child, prior to registration

Refund Policy

1. If a financial reimbursement is requested 10 business days (2 weeks) prior to the program/camp commencing then a refund will be issued in the form of a cheque, minus a non refundable deposit of $50 per week per child.

2. If a credit for a future BGC South East program is requested the full amount paid will be applied. This credit must be used within one year of request. NO CASH VALUE

3. No refund or credit will be given if the request is less than 10 business days (2 weeks) notice.

Child Care Fee Assistance Programs (Subsidy)

If you are planning on applying for BGC Child Care Fee Assistance Programs through the City of Kingston Child Care Subsidy Program or PELASS, please ensure you have registered for all weeks of camp required, choosing “APPLYING FOR SUBSIDY” option at checkout.

 Once the registration has been completed, please reach out to your site specific contact (contact information listed below) and request the paperwork and application. Confirmation of Space forms will be sent to the City of Kingston or PELASS (depending on your mailing address, not the camp location) during the first week of May. If subsidy is not approved, you will have the option to immediately pay the $50 non-refundable deposit per week and the remainder by due dates or completely withdraw.

The location of your subsidy application will be dependent on your mailing address, not where the camp is being offered.
EXAMPLE: If you live within the City of Kingston, but your child(ren) will be attending camp in Loyalist Township, your subsidy application will be submitted to the City of Kingston.
If you reside in Loyalist Township, but your child(ren) will be attending summer camp at a location within the City of Kingston, your subsidy application will be submitted to PELASS (Prince Edward Lennox Addington Social Services)

If you are a new immigrant to Canada this year, you may apply without your most recent tax return** (PELASS Specific)

***If you reside in Prince Edward County or the County of Lennox and Addington, and you are applying for subsidy, Parents/Guardians/Caregivers must ALSO complete an application through the PELASS office in addition to the paperwork that BGC will submit on your behalf.

Transportation Pick Up locations and times are outlined below.
Parents/Guardians who would like to sign their child(ren) up for the transportation program can complete the transportation form as part of the online registration process.
