ONLINE SUMMER CAMP PACKET SUBMISSION: 3/1 - 3/4 at 9PM and 3/11 at 8AM - 8/2:
To efficiently handle and review online form submissions, the ability to upload camp packets online will not be available after Monday, March 4th at 9PM and will reopen on Monday, March 11th at 8 am.
A staff person will review the forms and contact you within 3 business days. Once you have received an email that your forms have been accepted you will be able to enroll in camps online. Camp spots are NOT held during this time. If you are concerned about losing specific camp spots, please come in person to the Dunedin Community Center OR the MLK Recreation Center in lieu of submitting your paperwork online. We appreciate your cooperation during this busy time.

All of the prerequisites listed below must be fulfilled by the parent or legal guardian ONLY prior to registering online or in person. Grandparents and Step Parents that have not legally adopted the child(ren) are unable to sign waivers, fill out forms or enroll in camps on the parents behalf. Registration will continue until camps are full. At minimum all children require our Comprehensive Waiver, Camp Forms and a Recreation Card (if you want discounted rates). Those seeking waitlist spots follow the same paperwork requirements to ensure a fast enrollment process when a spot becomes available.

PREREQUISITES & ENROLLMENT STEPS:
Create or Update Account----->Camp Forms----->Approval------>Family Waiver------->Recreation Card----->Camp Weeks.

1. Create or Update your Account
You must have an existing account prior to using online registration. New accounts are created by the parent or Legal Guardian online by selecting “Create an Account” on our login page OR in person at the Dunedin Community Center or the MLK Jr. Recreation Center.

2. Camp Registration Form (Uploaded or turned in yearly) for Each Child.
If uploading, you will find "Document Upload" under "My account" at the top of this page when logged in.
Camp Registration forms must be completed by the parent and/or legal guardian ONLY and be uploaded online or submitted in person on or after March 1st each year. Forms must be filled out completely and cannot contain any blank fields. Form fields that do not apply should be marked "N/A". It can take up to three business days for accounts and forms to be reviewed. Camp spots are NOT held during this time.

3. Receive email from Registration that paperwork is approved. You will not be able to enroll in camps before this and our comprehensive waiver is done.

4. Sign or E-Authorize the yearly Family Comprehensive Waiver for each child.
Only the Parents or the Legal Guardians of the Child(ren) may sign or authorize waivers. This can be done online using the “Comprehensive Waiver”" button on the Home Page or in Person. We will not accept uploaded or scanned waivers.

5. Purchase or Renew the Recreation Membership Cards for Discounted Rates!
For discounted rates, each child registering will need a Recreation Membership. After entering the waiver, purchase or renew your membership by selecting the "Recreation Card" button under the shopping cart. Non-Residents attending 6 weeks or more should consider purchasing a recreation card for discounted rates depending on the camps desired. *THIS MUST BE DONE PRIOR TO REGISTERING FOR CAMP- NO REFUNDS WILL BE GIVEN IF YOU PURCHASE AT THE NON-RESIDENT RATE BY MISTAKE*

6. Enroll in Camps!

Current BASP Program Enrollees:
For children currently enrolled in our Before and After School Care program, parents have the option to verify, update and sign their current forms in person prior to registering for summer camps or you may fill out camp forms and submit them in person or online during open online submission times.


RECREATION MEMBERSHIP CARDS: Must be purchased for discounted rates before enrolling in camps! Do this immediately!
To be eligible for discounted Summer Camp rates, each individual registering for an activity will need to purchase a Membership. The Membership must be valid through the last day of the activity enrolled in. If no membership is purchased, the higher non-member rate will apply. The Inter-Local Reciprocal Agreement for Oldsmar, Tarpon Springs and Safety Harbor residents excludes camps. There is no price difference for Holiday Camps.

PLEASE NOTE: Household Residency is verified by Registration staff for all New Accounts and Renewals. This is done to ensure everyone is receiving the correct rate. If a mis-matched residence status and card type is found, the enrollment will be adjusted to reflect the correct rate and the balance (if any) will be due immediately. Providing proof of residency as required (especially if the name does not match the tax records to the address listed) will speed up the entire approval process and ensure member rates.

Recreation I.D. Cards are available for purchase as follows:
a. Resident I.D. Cards are $10 per year. A driver’s license and proof of residency (current document such as a utility bill, property tax statement or insurance statement) is required.
b. Non-Resident I.D. cards are $90 per year or $56 per 6 months. A driver’s license is required for New Accounts.
c. Unincorporated Pinellas County I.D. Cards are $56 per year. A driver’s license is required for New Accounts. Tax records are also verified to confirm the Palm Harbor address is located in Unincorporated Pinellas County. Many Palm Harbor Residents qualify for this card.


DEFERRED SUMMER CAMP PAYMENTS:
-Deferred payments are available for our three main summer camps only: Pre-K Camp, Kids camp and Tween & Teen Camp.
-The first two weeks of the main camp are paid in full and $25 is put down on the remaining camp weeks. Specialty Camps require full payment in addition to the first two weeks of the main camp.
-Payment in Full guarantees your child's spot in a camp for that week.
