CANGRANDS Special needs group
We need to know ahead of time ( NOW! ) so a volunteer can be assigned to your special needs child as part of the program for their age group. Sadly there will be a $50.00 extra service charge as we have to pay a camp fee for each volunteer. For those with the special needs funding this should be covered as well as the cost of the camp.
If you have not identified your child as one needing extra support and there is a problem then you will be expected to take care of your child. PLEASE let us know what to expect so we can be proactive and make plans.
- There is a non-refundable administration fee of $50.00 per family which is part of the registration camp fee.
- Conference day visitors who are not staying overnight, pay Breakfast $4.00, Lunch $5.00 and Dinner $8.00

till July and your family can be part of this CANGRANDS holiday!
