Discounted Rates:  While there may be funds availble to offer tuition assistance, we would like to encourage families to help fundraise for camp as well. Once you have applied for your student, you will be sent an email confirming your application was recieved. I will follow up if additional information is needed and we will discuss if your child needs additional supports and what those costs might look like. This is the time to begin reaching our to collect funds from family, friends, or community members who may assist you with the cost of camp. We will not know until the 1st part of June if we have funds for scholorships or grants as we can not make those calls until all donations have arrived or grants have been disbursed. 

Below is the application form for Summer Camp 2024. We require you to fill this form out online. You will be contacted and notified that your application has been received. We may need additional information from you before a spot in camp can be secured. At the time that a spot is offered a reservation payment of $100 will be requested to reserve your spot in camp.  To ensure balanced class sizes spots will only be held once payment is received. This payment will go towards your tuition payments once camp begins. 

The reservation payment ($100 per child) should be dropped off or mailed to Flint Hills Summer Fun Camp:

Payments: 
Flint Hills Summer Fun Camp
Attn: Ryan Smallwood
Eisenhower Middle School
800 Walters Dr.
Manhattan, KS 66502

Please note:

  • In addition to the information below, we must also have accompanying IEP information with your application (if applicable) to reserve your spot. Email IEPs to: fhsummerfuncamp@gmail.com
  • We will conduct an interview with the classroom teacher/school staff to make placements appropriately as needed. 
  • Camp staff will contact you directly with acceptance into our program. Camp staff reserves the right for appropriate placement to ensure best outcomes for all campers. 
  • If your child requires para support outside of what is provided through camp, families are responsible for the cost of the para in addition to tuition.   

Your reservation fee will be deposited and used toward your tuition costs once your child has been accepted. We will do our best to place as many children as possible in our program, but know that we may not have enough spots for every applicant. We do our best to create classrooms with a balance of peer models and children with special needs, genders, ages, and abilities. After acceptance, families will be provided with final enrollment paperwork to complete for camp. 

Once your application is submitted, you will receive an email to confirm that we have received the application. Please allow 48 hours for this confirmation email.  If you do not receive this email, please submit the form again.  
If outside of USD 383, please include school district information above.
Please note: An accurate reporting of para support helps us determine the best placement for your child. Adult to student ratios will be 1:5. If your child needs more support than this ratio provides and another para is needed, you will be responsible for the cost. These conversations can be had early on if we are aware of the level of support that will help your child have the most success at camp.
Please mark the appropriate tuition rate, based upon your child's lunch rate during the school year. If you are sending more than one child to the elementary camp, a discounted family rate may apply.
Please note there will be no camp on July 4th, and possibly that entire week. To encourage full participation, and provide for a structured environment for our campers, we are unable to offer partial months.
Please select your child's t-shirt size. Students will receive two t-shirts with their enrollment. If you would like to order additional shirts for your child, the cost will be added to the price of tuition.
If you would like to order additional t-shirts for your child or for others, please note the size AND number of shirts here.
As the parent/legal guardian of the above mentioned participant, I understand that I am paying the deposit and agree to pay the agreed tuition amount according to the above levels if my child is accepted into the program.
Checks may be held up to two months and deposited upon notification of acceptance into camp, or returned in the event that a camper does not enroll.
