Registration Instructions

Fill out your name and address and so on, then determine WHERE you will be sending your child/ren: one venue per week, please, and whether you will be signing up for a half day (9am-12:30pm, for K-2 kids) or a full day (9am-4pm, for older kids) program. Each venue has a class for half day kids (5-7 year olds who leave around lunchtime) and two for full day kids (one for 7-10 year olds, another for 11 year olds and up) who leave at 4pm.

Now for your payment options:

  1. You may send in complete payment (program cost and aftercare fee, if needed; make check payable to "TAP".
  2. You may send in a reservation deposit of $50. If you choose this option, realize that this reservation deposit is non-refundable, and that the balance is due by June 1st. The balance for the half day program by then would be $100; for the full day it would be $200.
  3. You may send in an incomplete payment of more than $50, the amount determined by you, of which $50 represents the non-refundable reservation, and the rest as part of balance of the program cost. You will be sent an invoice for the outstanding amount, if any, or a receipt/confirmation to acknowledge your child's enrollment.
  4. Materials fees have been folded into the camp cost.
  5. We do not currently accept credit card payments.
