Forest Cliff FAQs

Forest Cliff’s SummerFund program operates on a referral basis, allowing organizations to request a subsidized registration for a child that is part of their care community. SummerFund experiences are made possible by generous donors that deeply value the positive impact and life-changing experience a week at Forest Cliff Camps provides. Are you interested in helping a child come to camp that could not afford it otherwise? Visit www.forestcliff.ca to donate today.

Overnight Camp bursaries are distributed as funds are available, thanks to the generosity of our donors. Based on net income, bursaries cover a percentage of registration for one full week of Overnight Camp. This provides assistance when the parent(s) or legal guardian(s) themselves are paying.

When completing the Information Form during registration, you will come to a question, “Do you anticipate fees will be partly or fully covered by one of the following” – click bursary and a few questions will pop up.

The bursary deposit is $50/camper, rather than the usual camp deposit. The deposit is fully refundable if a bursary is not applied or the balance is not feasible.

Send your most recent Notice of Assessment to info@forestcliff.ca. If there are 2 parents/guardians in the household or 2 parents/guardians contributing to the camper’s expenses, we require both NOA’s. Your bursary application will be reviewed and you will be contacted once the deposit and NOA(s) have been received. Bursary does not apply when another individual/agency is paying, or with discounts or promotions.

A family discount is available to assist large families when the parent or legal guardian is paying for camp.

When registering 3 or more Overnight Campers from the same family household for Kids Camp, Jr. High Camp or SALT, a 50% discount will apply to the 3rd and additional lesser priced camper’s sessions. Not valid with volunteer discount, promotions, bursary, SummerFund, 3rd party, or for Junior Camp.

A subsidy may be available for certain Day Camp locations. Please contact Forest Cliff for further information. info@forestcliff.ca or 519-913-2744.

We know campers want to be with their friends, and we make every effort to accommodate them. We take great care putting our groups together, as many come without a cabin/group mate request.

In the registration form you can request one cabin mate for your child’s Overnight Camp session (same gender, similar age).

Email info@forestcliff.ca if you would like to request more than one person, want siblings to be placed in different cabins/groups or would like information about filling a cabin.
