A non-refundable deposit of $25, due at the time of registration will confirm your spot in the camp. Remaining tuition and fees are due one week (7 days) prior to the start of the chosen camp session. If full tuition and fees are not received 7 days prior to the start of a camp session, your spot may be forfeited to the next child on the wait list. Cancellation Policy If a cancellation is made in writing at least 7 days prior to the start of the program, 100% of program fees will be refunded, minus the non-refundable deposit of $25. If a cancellation is made by 4 pm on the Thursday prior to the first day of camp, 50% of program fees will be refunded, minus the non-refundable deposit. After that date, no fees can be refunded. Scholarships Scholarships are available to those who qualify thanks to generous donations from business sponsors and community organizations. Funds are limited and scholarships are awarded on a first-come, first-served basis. A scholarship application and documentation of need are required; please see Camp Scholarship Information or email Visitor Services or call 541-682-7888 for more information. Teachers We recruit lively and experienced teachers with advanced degrees in education and/or the sciences. Many of our teachers hold teaching licenses, and all have experience teaching in schools, museums or camps. Camp Activity Schedules By the first day of each session, campers will receive a schedule detailing any field trips, show and tell, messy days, or other activities that you will want to know about for advance planning. Authorization to Transport Hands-on learning means fun field trips built into our camps! Campers who go on field trips will be transported by Science Factory staff in the Science Factory’s van or by parent volunteers in their personal vehicles. Please be sure to sign the Authorization to Transport on your child’s registration form so that they will be able to participate in these opportunities. Advance notice of all field trips will be given on the first day of each camp session. Media Release The Science Factory receives frequent media coverage throughout the community and in other publications statewide and nationally. In addition, pictures help document our work, so Science Factory staff frequently photograph campers for our website and program brochures. By signing your child up for the Science Factory’s Summer Camps you authorize the Science Factory to photograph and/or videotape your child for publicity purposes (including visits from news media and photos on our website.) The Science Factory will not release any personal information regarding your child other than their first name, last name, and age. All photographs and video recordings will become the property of the Science Factory, not to be sold or loaned, and will be used only to promote the Science Factory and its education programs. If you do not want your child to be photographed, please attach a note with your registration form and we will ensure that your child will not take part in any media events. |
