How to Apply for Scholarships
Register for Tamarack Camps summer programs and indicate your interest in applying for a scholarship. When you request a scholarship, a deposit per camper is required with each application ($250 for mini sessions, $250 for full sessions at Camp Maas or Outpost Camps, and $375 for Travel Trips).
The scholarship application is provided with the camper application.
Scholarships Awards and Payment Schedule: Notification of financial scholarship awards will be provided via email. Families will also need to designate whether they will pay their balance in full or set up a monthly payment plan.
For families on the monthly payment plan, the final balance is due one week prior to the start of the session of camp your child(ren) is/are attending. All accounts must be in balance for campers to be eligible to attend camp.
