Summer Camp Registration Form

To obtain a discount on the fees:

 This is only applicable to city residents and if you are paying at the full $50 per week rate. There is no discount on the $10 registration fee.

- Parents who pay for 9 weeks of camp in advance can qualify for a 10% discount on camp fees. The amount of the money order should be $415

      - Parents who have more than one child can opt for a three week payment plan. If  you pay for three weeks at a time, the first child is charged at $50 per week and each subsequent child is charged at $40 a week. Failure to pay for three weeks at a time would require the remainder of camp weeks to be at $50 per week per child rate. For example a family of 2 would bring for their first payment $290 ( $160 for the first child and $130 for the second)

For parents who feel they can not afford the summer camp fees.

It is Department policy to provide youth general park programs to the community regardless of economic status. In order to accommodate those unable to pay the full-approved fee for programs, the Department has a Program Fee Reduction procedure. The Program Fee Reduction is applicable for our youth general park programs (After School Program and Summer, Winter and Spring Camps). Program Fee Reductions do not apply to Specialized Programs (Tennis, Dance, Swim Team, etc).

Only City of Miami Residents will be eligible for Fee Reductions.

Fee Reduction Applicants must attend the park nearest to their home.

All participants must pay the annual $10 Registration Fee, which cannot be waived or reduced.

Any parent/guardian who requests such a form will be provided one without question.  The Program Fee Reduction Application must be completed by the parent/guardian and submitted to the facility manager during the pre-qualification period, prior to registration. The application must have a photocopy of support documents which indicate household income, number of people in household, proof of dependency/custody of child and proof of City of Miami residency.

□        Prior year income tax return with the attached W-2, (this satisfies all aspects of support and if this is provided will be accepted as the only proof)
