Nuhop Expectations

Our program is more than a summer camp, and parental involvement is vital to a child’s success. Initially, the family completes an application questionnaire that explores the camper’s abilities, social adjustment and desired camp goals.

A Teacher Evaluation Form helps us understand the student’s social needs while in school. The Nuhop staff then arranges parent conferences and our orientation day at camp for all new campers. DETAILED information is in the camper application form. This day conference provides personal observation, informal discussion, and a general get acquainted session. Often, a parent’s pre-camp anxieties are addressed at this conference.

The Pre-Camp Conference is required unless travel time to and from camp exceeds 7 1/2 hours. In this case, a phone conference, charged to the parent, can replace the camp conference.

Eligibility, Application and Camperships

Please CLICK HERE
to download the
2008 Application
Children from 6 to 18 with learning disabilities, behavior disorders (LD/BD) and/or attention deficit disorders (ADD) may attend. The camp program is not appropriate for children with severe mental retardation or physical disability.

To apply, please download, print, and complete the application. We accept campers on a first-come basis and spaces are limited. Applications will be accepted until all places are filled, which occurs around May 30. Your child will have a better chance of being placed in a compatible grouping with an earlier application. Due to a long waiting list, campers may attend a maximum of two sessions. Accommodations between sessions are $70 per day. This price includes staff, housing, and food.

Please enclose a $150 deposit per session to secure a place for your child. Campers without a deposit will not be placed. A total refund will be made if we do not accept your child after the camp conference. A $100 refund will be made if your child does not attend after the application is processed. There will be no refund if notice of cancellation is not received within two weeks of the first day of your child’s camp. Camp fee information is listed on the application.

Financial Aid

Do not let cost keep your child from experiencing Camp Nuhop. We strive for all children to attend our program, and we help by finding sponsors (camperships). A number of clubs, organizations, and a few Foundations have provided camperships over the years, and we will help you find camperships. The final responsibility for a campership rests with the parent.

If a campership is needed, please check the box on the last page of the application form. A Campership Application will be sent for you to complete and return. All families are asked to pay the $150 deposit. A Child will not be registered until the $150 is paid.
