All About Camp

Level Up Campers are eligible to attend camps that are for the grade they are going into next fall. For example, a girl who is going into second grade can attend camps that are for or include Brownies. A girl who is going into fourth grade can choose from camps in the Junior age range. The official beginning of summer camp programs is May 15, so campers will attend spring sessions through May 14 as the grade they are finishing, and summer camps on or after May 15 as the grade they are going into.

You may cancel your reservation for an event or summer camp and receive a full refund, minus any deposit, if the request is received more than 14 days prior to the start of the session. Limited refunds will be given within 14 days of the program; see full refund policy on our website and attached to your Ultracamp confirmation email for specific refund scenarios. No refund is given if the girl is a no show or leaves a session early. Additionally, t-shirt or other optional purchases will not be refunded and travel may have an earlier refund date.

Bussing is back!

Day camp at Starwoods runs from 9 a.m. to 5 a.m. daily, with check in at camp as early as 8:30 a.m. and pick up as late as 5:30 p.m. Campers may ride the bus from the Wichita office to Starwoods each day; this is a great option for east side families or caregivers who need an earlier drop off time. Check in at the office begins at 7:45 a.m. The bus leaves for camp at 8:15 a.m. and arrives back at the office at 5:15 p.m. Campers must be picked up by 5:30 p.m.
