06
Pay the $200 deposit & select a payment plan
Pay by card to hold your child's place. The deposit counts toward your camp fee. Then choose how you will pay the rest.
07
Check your email
Camp Brain sends a confirmation email. Keep it: it shows that your child is registered.
After you register
You're in. Here is what happens next.
Your confirmation email
A few minutes after you pay the deposit, Camp Brain sends a confirmation email that names your child and the program along with a copy of a physical form for your child’s doctor to fill out later.

Forms, packing and drop-off
In the spring, we will follow up with any questions on the medical forms. Physical forms, to be completed by your child’s endocrinologist, are due by June 5, 2027. The Before camp page has the forms list, the packing list and the drop-off details.
The rest of your fee
The balance of your fees are due before the start of camp. You can choose to pay in full at registration, monthly, or defer until May 17, 2027. If paying becomes hard, talk to us early. Financial help is available.
Not sure it worked?
Call the office at (570) 524-9090. We can check your child's registration in Camp Brain while you are on the phone.
If camp is full
Join the waitlist.
Camp has room for about 80 campers. When a camp is full, you can still join the waitlist in Camp Brain.
