Each family will need one Parent Portal account to register children for Summer Fun Camp.
Registration is a simple two-step process.

Registration opens in two phases:

Step 1

Purchase a $30 annual Boys & Girls Club membership for the 26–27 school year for each child. This membership is required for all participants with no exceptions.
Step 2

Once the membership is complete, you will be able to register your child for the individual weeks of Summer Fun Camp you would like them to attend.

If a week is full, the option to join the waitlist will appear during registration. If a spot becomes available, families will be contacted by phone and/or email as soon as possible.

For registration related questions, please review the FAQ section within the Parent Portal. Information about required deposits at the time of registration and seat availability can be found in the section above titled “What is the Cost and How Do I Pay?”

An application for need based financial assistance will be automatically emailed to families who indicate interest in financial aid during the registration process. Financial assistance is awarded to families with demonstrated financial need and requires a completed application.

If you have questions about financial assistance, please email info@bgccarrollcounty.org.

Please note that a $25 deposit is required to reserve a child’s spot for any week of Summer Fun Camp. This deposit is required at the time of registration, even if a family is awaiting a financial assistance decision.
