Hogwarts 2010 School of Magic & Fun!
June 7-11
and June 14-18, 2010
Two weeks of our incredibly popular summer camp will return with a new theme: What a Wonderful Wizarding World!
Magic is all around us! This summer at camp we will explore the wonders of our world, and we will also work together to help make this world a better place.
Students chose to attend either week individually or both weeks for a full experience.
Hogwarts registration for new students for 2010 is now closed!
Please note: We are not a daycare facility and cannot provide you with a tax ID # for caring for your child. We are a church program and thus fall under the nonprofit category for day camps. We offer before care and after care as a convenience to make our program available to all children, but we are not a daycare facility.
Fees (changed this year)
$150 per week per child (grades 1-12)

- -$25 early registration discount per week (register before April 1)
- -$25 multi-child family discount (for families with 3 or more children, take $25 off per week)
Please make payment through credit card (on the web) or check in person or by mail (no cash please).
At least half of the payment is due upon registration to hold your spot. Refunds are available until May 1.

- Work with your House to give service back to our community based on Hope, Peace, Love, and Faith.

- Make all your Magic Supplies, like your own personalized wand & magical hat. Please leave expensive wands and live animals at home.
- Owl Post, Magical Activities Room, Room of Requirement and much much more!
All campers will receive a T-shirt & tote bag as part of their registration.
HOGWARTS BASIC (June 7-11):
- If you've never attended UCBR's Hogwarts before, this is the best place to start.

HOGWARTS ADVANCED (June 14-18):
- Open only to students who have attended the first week or have attended previous years. There will be no sorting ceremony, as everyone will already be sorted in advance, and there will be no Diagon Alley (though students attending just the second week will still have opportunity to make magical supplies).
- This week will include some new and different class projects, special guests, and the conclusion of the House Cup competition.
Age Groupings

- 6-8 Grades: NEWTs - Nastily Exhausting Wizarding Trials
- 9-12th Grades: Advanced NEWTS - For high school youth who are not ready or able to take on a leadership role, we will have a new class just for them. Those who want to be part of our staff may apply to be
ELFS - Enriching Life through Service & Fun. In the wizarding world, House Elves are not treated very well. In our Hogwarts, serving others is the highest level to which one can attain. ELFs are our junior counselors and are exempt from registration fees, but must apply for the job.
