Camp Summit offers weekly sessions according to age during summer and fall months. We also offer one-day programs, Fun Days, throughout the year.

Our camper-to-staff ratio is two campers to every one staff member at all times. Our staff work diligently to make sure your camper is taken care of and has the best time possible while at Camp Summit!
-
We accept campers starting at age six and continuing through adulthood. We have no upper age limit and place no stipulation on the degree of disability.
-
The fee is $2,060 for each camper to attend camp, but your cost is based on household income. We call this a sliding scale fee. The less you earn, the less you pay. We also offer "camperships", which are like scholarships for campers, to keep it affordable for all.
At Camp Summit, we never turn away a camper due to an inability to pay and we are happy to work with you to ensure your camper can attend. After all, camp is for everyone.

Camp Summit has an on-site health center with exam room, medication preparation and storage rooms, and isolation and quarantine rooms. Multiple nurses and health care staff are on-site at all times when camp is in session, and a physician is available for phone consultations when needed. During summer sessions, nursing students are also on-site assisting the nurses, with care coordinated by our on-site healthcare director. All healthcare staff are trained in medication administration and routine care (including the use of durable medical equipment) and have CPR/First Aid certifications. While rare, should a need arise, the nearest urgent care and hospital are about twenty minutes from camp.
-
Camp Summit will not be providing transportation to and from camp this year. Caregivers will be responsible for ensuring campers arrive and depart camp at the appropriate time.
-
A large portion of campers come from the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex, but we also have campers from all over the United States. There are no stipulations based on a camper's residency.
-
Cancellations must be in writing and received at least 30 days prior to your camp session. A $50 processing fee will be retained, and the balance of the paid registration fee will be returned. If notice is given after the 30-day deadline, 50% of the registration will be returned, less the $50 processing fee. No refund will be given if you cancel less than one week prior to your camp session, or the camper does not show for their session. There are special considerations given for emergencies, such as a death in the family, camper illness, or accident. If an unavoidable emergency occurs, notify the corporate office immediately. Advance notice of a cancellation allows Camp Summit enough time to fill the open camper position.
