General Information
We are thrilled to offer SAGE Dining Program for the Summer! The Summer Dining Plan is available every week of camp for those staying a full day (from 8:30 a.m. - 3:00 p.m., or longer). The Dining Plan is not available for campers only registered for a Morning Camp or campers only registered for an Afternoon Camp. 

The Summer Dining Plan costs $40 a week and can be added as an option under your Camp Reservation on UltraCamp. The Dining Plan costs $32 for the 4-day week. The Summer Dining Plan is available for the entire week, with no single day options. For help with registration or payment, please contact Briana Morrow, Assistant Director of Auxiliary Programs, at 901.537.1415. 

All Specialty Camps on South Campus will not have the Dining Option, unless your child(ren) is registered for Half-Day Camp. Please reach out to us with questions or concerns.

General Information
To register online, please visit UltraCamp. If you haven’t done so before, please create a complete profile for you and your camper. You can register for camps, as well as make payments through this site. You may also contact Briana Morrow via e-mail or by phone at 901.537.1415 for any registration or payment questions.

A $50 one-time registration fee must be paid prior to registering for summer camp. This fee is per family, not per child. Additonally, a $25 deposit per specialty camp is required to register. This non-refundable deposit is applied towards the total cost of the camp; it is not an additional fee. The deposit reserves a space for your child, and the remaining balance is due by the start date of the camp. Summer at St. Mary's accepts Visa, MasterCard, Discover, American Express, cash, and checks. Summer at St. Mary's will not prorate camps for any reason. 

To cancel a reservation, please contact Summer at St. Mary's with a minimum of 10 days notice to receive a refund, less the non-refundable deposit. Except in cases of illness or emergency, refunds will not be given after a program begins. No refunds will be given for those campers that choose not to attend a program. Registration confirmation will be sent to the primary email via UltraCamp; the confirmation email will show account balances. All account balances must be paid by the start date of the camp in order to attend. Camps with insufficient enrollment are subject to cancellation with a full refund. 

Late Pick-Up Policy
If your child is registered for After Care, it is from 3:00 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. in the Early Childhood building. Late fees will apply for campers not picked up by 5:30 p.m. Campers not picked up by 5:30 p.m. will be charged $2.00 per minute for the first 10 minutes, and then $5.00 per minute for each additional minute. All late fees are due at the time of pick-up. If you are late picking your camper up on two occasions, we are no longer able to offer after care to your child. 

Behavioral Policy
Campers are expected to adhere to the policies of St. Mary’s Episcopal School. We reserve the right to dismiss from the program (without refund) any camper whose behavior becomes unmanageable. Campers are not allowed to be unsupervised on campus and are expected to be neatly and properly dressed. The use or possession of alcohol, drugs, or tobacco products is not allowed, and any students in possession of such items will be expelled from the program, without refund, and the appropriate authorities will be contacted. 

Campers must be at least three years of age by June 1 and fully potty trained, including nap time, to attend Summer at St. Mary's. If more than three accidents occur within a 7 day period, the Director of Auxiliary Programs may request that your child remain home from camp.

What does my camper need to wear and bring to camp each day?
Campers should wear comfortable clothes suitable for outdoor play, games, cooking, and crafts for our munchkin and day camps.  We might get a little messy, so please do not send your camper in anything that cannot get dirty.  Please have your camper wear athletic shoes. On Wednesdays, be sure to send your camper in creative attire that matches our theme for the week. Please do not go to any additional expense to purchase costumes; feel free to use items you have on hand at home. Each camper should bring a swimsuit, towel, sunscreen, waterproof shoes, and a plastic bag for wet clothes each day. You will receive an email the Wednesday before camp starts detailing any specific things to wear or bring for any of our specialty camps. 

What is for lunch during camp?
We offer SAGE Dining Services during Summer Camp. Please visit the Dining Services tab for further information. Please contact Briana Morrow for help with registration or payment for the Summer Dining Plan. If you choose, you may send your camper a packed nut-free lunch. This includes any products that may have been packaged in a nut facility. If you pack sun butter or soy butter, please put a note on the lunchbox. If your camper is attending a Specialty Camp on South Campus, please pack a lunch.

Summer at St. Mary's offers a range of care options to fit our families' needs. Early Care begins at 7:30 a.m. in the Early Childhood Center; please park and walk your camper in through the front doors. If your child is not dropped off by 8:20 a.m., we ask that you join our 8:30 a.m. carpool around the Early Childhood Center.

If your child is enrolled in a camp until 3:00 p.m. and you are not utilizing After Care, you will pick up in the 3:00 p.m. carpool. Picking up your child from camp prior to 3:00 p.m. must be done with advance notice to the Auxiliary Programs staff.
