• All staff have experience in working with children, are CPR/First Aid certified and participate in regular training.  
• Most of our staff have or are pursuing degrees in Recreation & Leisure studies, Education or other related fields.
• Children are supervised at all times and are not permitted to leave the program unless they are signed out by an authorized adult.
• For the protection of everyone in our camp community, all Camp staff are mandated by the state of WI and trained as mandatory reporters. Just like teachers at school, if a counselor hears or observes any indication that there may be physical, emotional, or any other kind of abuse going on with a camper, we must report this to Child Protective Services. It is not our job to investigate or determine if the allegation is true or not. We serve as a relay station for information to protect the best interests of the campers who are entrusted to us. Our campers’ emotional and physical well-being and sense of personal safety is our number one concern.
  
  

Payments and Refunds
We carefully plan each session of camp for maximum fun.  We understand that your schedule may change but our staffing and snack arrangements are finalized based on the enrolled registration attendance.  With that in mind, please read our refund policies carefully.

The deposit of $10.00 per week is required at the time of application and is non-refundable/non-transferable. All deposits made at time of registration are nonrefundable.  Deposits are not transferable between siblings and deposits are only transferable to another session if space is available.  Deposits may not be transferred to the balance of fees for another session in which another deposit has been paid.  Any changes or cancellations/refund request must be received via email (jbuehler@ci.monona.wi.us) at least two weeks prior to the session start date or payment date.  For cancellations prior to May 15, all funds will be refunded or cancelled other than the weekly deposit fee.  After May 15, 50% of the camp fee is refundable up to the 14 day window before your camp week begins. Seven days before a week begins, or partial attendance of a week will result in no refund.

We will do our best to accommodate any weekly changes requested but cannot guarantee availability. If a family is facing financial hardship due to COVID quarantine requests or from their income, they may ask Monona Parks & Recreation to defer their payments to a later date that is agreed upon between both parties. Failure to pay any deferred payments will results in removal from program and/or additional consequences put forth by the city of Monona.

There will be no fee reduction or reimbursement for absences due to illness, family emergencies, vacation, COVID quarantine*, unexpected visits from relatives or for any other reason. Please note, the no refund policy also includes emergency weather closures.
