The Granite YMCA, Camp Mi-Te-Na, and Camp Foss strive to make camp available to all campers and families, regardless of financial means. Aside from income, we look at number of children in the household and other extenuating factors such as a family member illness, recent job loss, family members in college, etc. We are pleased to offer this financial support, which is made possible by generous contributions grantors and donors to our Annual Campaign. While these scholarship dollars are not unlimited, we certainly do our best to help everyone that applies as much as possible.
In addition to financial assistance, we are more than happy to set up a payment plan that works best for your family in an effort to make the overnight camp experience a real possibility. Through our scholarship program we provide the same camp experience for all campers regardless of socio-economic status. We look forward to potentially serving your child at camp this summer!
Guidelines to Qualify:
Camper is self-motivated and excited to participate at overnight camp
Camper is 8-15 year old

Application Process
A financial assistance application and camp registration form is filled out and submitted to the Overnight Camp Registrar
Proof of income is also smitted to the Overnight Camp Registrar
Perspective camper will meet with Overnight Camp Registrar
Within 7 business days after the camp meeting, a proposed financial assistance amount will be shared with the camper's guardian(s). Payment options for the family portion will be discussed and the camper will officially have a confirmed spot at camp.
Camp Director will call parents/guardians to discuss camp. During this call, the staff team will identify and address any potential barriers to a successful camp experience.
After the camper has attended camp, the registrar will follow up to discuss the camper's experience and start looking to next season. You may also be asked for a letter or note of impact to share with donors and grantors.
