2026 Camp Season

Session & Dates Tuition* Availability
Session 7 (One Week) August 16- August 22 $2,750 Limited Openings – Please Call

Although we do our best to keep the session status up to date, session availability may change before your application is confirmed.

* In addition to tuition, the following amounts will be added to your account upon acceptance:

$125 non-refundable registration fee per camper  

$100 Camp Store deposit per camper for the possible purchase of a camp t-shirt, sweatshirt, hat or other items and any incidentals. The Camp Store balance will be refunded or charged at the end of the session.

When your online application is received, the following fees will be charged:

For enrollment in an open session:  $1,000 deposit per camper, per session + $125 non-refundable registration fee per camper

For placement on the waiting list:  $500 deposit per camper (The waiting list deposit is refundable if the camper does not enroll. Parents may decline a spot that is offered or withdraw from the waiting list without penalty.)

Campers may not be enrolled and on a waiting list at the same time without incurring cancellation fees.

Waiting List Process:  If an opening becomes available, a call will be placed to the mobile phone number of the first parent listed on the camper application. If we do not receive a response within 48 hours, we will move on to the next person on the waiting list, withdraw the application and refund the waiting list deposit.

When a camper moves from the waiting list to enrollment, $625 will be charged which includes the remaining $500 deposit, along with the $125 non-refundable registration fee. If an opening from a waiting list is filled after our payment in full date, the full tuition amount will be charged upon enrollment.

Cancellation Policy

CANCELLATION FEE SCHEDULE

Prior to October 1, the full $1,000 enrollment deposit is refundable.

     After October 1 = $250 fee ($750 deposit refund)
     After December 1 = $500 fee ($500 deposit refund)
     After February 1 = $1,000 fee (no deposit refund)
     Payment in full is due March 15
     March 15 = No refund of deposit or tuition

PLEASE NOTE: The fee schedule dates are not flexible and exceptions will not be made for any reason.

The $125 registration fee is in addition to the $1,000 deposit. The $125 registration fee is non-refundable, is not applied to the tuition and is not part of the cancellation fee schedule outlined above.

All fees are per cancelled session. There are no refunds or credits of camp fees (tuition) for any reason including early departure, dismissal, behavior issues, homesickness, illness or injury. Registration cannot be traded or exchanged.

Purchasing insurance is the only way to be reimbursed for camp tuition/fees in the event of cancellation, regardless of the reason. 

Please submit your cancellation in writing (email). Your cancellation is not confirmed until you receive a confirmation email.

CLOSURE POLICY:  In the event camp is unable to open, must temporarily suspend operations for some portion of a session or must begin late or close early due to circumstances beyond Camp’s control, including but not limited to weather, floods, threat of wildfire or unhealthful levels of smoke, pandemic, utility failures, inaccessibility, civil unrest, governmental order or other such reason, Camp shall not be responsible for any costs, losses, or other damages beyond a pro-rata refund of tuition for days lost, less the deposit which is non-refundable and any non-recoverable expenses and administrative costs spent in performance of this agreement.

For purposes of this refund policy, being “forced” to close includes a mandatory order or advisory order to evacuate by a public entity including but not limited to a fire department,  health department or law enforcement, but also includes the Camp’s determination exercising its own independent judgment that an unreasonable health or safety risk exists due to an event beyond its control.

You should consider the possibility that the Camp’s opinion as to the potential health/safety risk from a hazard may differ from your own; the Camp may be of the opinion that it can continue to operate safely, and you disagree. If you want your child to return home under such circumstances, there will be no refund.

INSURANCE :  Camp is not able to obtain adequate insurance coverage for these risks. Therefore, we recommend parents consider camp tuition insurance.

TripMate Program Protector Insurance is available during the online application process. If you choose to purchase Program Protector insurance and are placed on a waiting list, the insurance will be “pending enrollment.” Upon acceptance, TripMate (aka MHRoss, TripAssure) will charge the insurance fee and email you a confirmation. It is your responsibility to confirm purchase of an insurance plan. Walton’s Grizzly Lodge receives no incentive or compensation from TripMate. We provide this option as a convenience for our camp families. If you have questions about Program Protector, please call TripMate (MH Ross, TripAssure) directly (833-297-2258). Parents may choose not to insure their camper’s program or may choose to purchase insurance from any company.

As soon as you turn off that dirt road, you’re in a whole new world. You’re driving down, and all you see around you is just so tall and so green. There’s a creek that comes down between a couple of the hills, and there’s a dam that opens up to a swimming hole.

Camp is a place to be yourself, where the real world rules don’t apply here. It’s really special for kids to be in an environment like that. A big part of the experience for our campers is that they get to choose their activities each day — from activities that we offer, campers have total flexibility in planning their day. They can change their mind from the morning to the afternoon, and it often ends up that they try something they thought they’d never try. We think it’s really empowering for kids to have the opportunity to decide what they want to do each day — to try new things and figure out what they love to do.

To me, it doesn’t feel like summer camp. I think we really keep coming back because of the traditions, and the people here are absolutely amazing. One of the most important pieces of creating an amazing camp experience is the people. Of course, you can have a wonderful facility, you can have all the activities in the world, but really it comes down to the people — the staff who are taking care of these kids. They just have a great attitude, they obviously love being around kids, and it’s nice to have adults who have a sense of humor and can be role models these children can look up to.

In areas where they’re too afraid to try, just give them that push and that confidence to be able to do things they didn’t think they’d be able to do before. A lot of these kids grew up with phones in their pockets, they grew up with their own laptops, they grew up online — so a lot of them get here and are just blown away by how much more they see every day, and how much more they communicate with people every day.

“If I brought a phone here, I’d probably just be on the phone. But when I’m here, I get to hang out with my friends and connect with everyone.”

We see a lot of kids who are hesitant and nervous the first time, but that usually only lasts a day or two, and it’s pretty amazing by the end how much they’ve opened up, how much they’ve come to feel like part of camp. You have so many new friends, you’ve done so many new things — by the time you walk out, you’ll say, “I don’t want to leave.”

It’s just family. People who know you really well, who treat you the best, for the whole week. After I get home, I start thinking about all the fun times I’ve had at camp, and I’m so excited to come back.

Come here, make your own choice, find what you love — and just be you.

I didn’t know what to expect. I realized I was going to have a fun two weeks, making new friends and meeting new people. One of my favorite parts about being a camp director, of course, is working with the campers — especially those first-time campers. And their parents might be a little nervous sending their kids to camp. I get it, because I’m a mom, but I think that helps me be a really good camp director and understand how hard it can be for parents to send their kids away this summer.

It’s a lot for the kids too — it’s their first time away from home for an extended period of time. The counselors are really great and know so much about camp. You can ask them if you need anything; they’re very welcoming counselors at Walton’s.

At the end of the session, I was like, “Oh, I don’t want to go — I want to stay here forever.” You’re going to be having way too much fun, and by the time you’re leaving, this is going to feel like home.
