What forms of payments do you accept and when will I be charged?
We accept Visa, Mastercard, and Discover credit card payments as well as ACH transfers from bank accounts. We do not accept American Express. Payments made by ACH transfer receive a 1.25% discount off of their final balance due. Returned credit cards or ACH payments will incur a $20 fee.
All registrations require a deposit of $500, with the exception of campers registering for Mini Camp only. Mini Camp only deposit is $250. During the registration process you can select to pay in full at the time of confirmation or pay the deposit with the final balance due by May 15th.
Do you offer any discounts?
A sibling discount is applied to families registering two or more campers. Save 5% off your second child, 10% off your third+ on session fees. Children must be siblings residing in the same household. We also offer a 1.25% discount off of your final balance due for payments made by ACH bank transfer.
Can we make installment payments?
Generally, all payments are due by May 15th. However, if parents desire, payment plans are available. Payments can be spread out over the camp season. All payments must be made in full by July 15th. A $25 administrative fee per camper applies to all payment plans. If you would like to take advantage of this option, please select “payment plan” upon registering your child for camp. The payments will automatically be deducted on the 15th of each month from the payment method provided.

Is there camp the week of July 4th?
There is no camp on Friday, July 3rd 2026. HPR will be open Monday through Thursday that week.
Is camp the right thing for my child going into kindergarten?
We have worked with kindergarten children for many years and feel that our program actually prepares them for kindergarten very well. Kindergartners participate in all camp activities at a pace that works for them. Their ability to take direction, work independently, and participate in group activities is positively impacted by their camp experience.
