Dancers will get the opportunity to show family and friends what they have learned on the final day of camp (last 20 minutes). No dance experience needed.

HOW DOES WEATHER IMPACT YOUR CAMP? In the event of severe weather, we have procedures in place, and if the schedule needs to be altered, you will be notified immediately by email.
HOW WILL I KNOW WHERE MY CAMP IS?
How to Enroll
WHAT IF MY CHILD GETS SICK OR INJURED? We have a registered school nurse who will be on campus full-time during camp.
WHAT IS YOUR CANCELLATION POLICY? We will make every effort to offer and staff courses as described in our brochure. However, it is possible that circumstances which are not anticipated could necessitate a change. In the unlikely event that UTO cancels a course, for any reason, registrants will receive a full refund. If, after an offering in the summer program has begun, it becomes apparent that the UTO staff has not been made aware of specific medical or emotional needs that cannot be accommodated, or if the camper is uncooperative with instructors or a detriment to other students, the camper may be removed from any current or future camp that she/ he may be registered to attend without refund.
1
There are no refunds after April 15 except for course cancellation. In the unusual case where refunds are appropriate (with the exception of cancelled courses), there is a $25 processing fee.
When you arrive on campus, there will be maps and counselors to guide you to your camp location.
WHAT IF I NEED TO PICK MY CHILD UP MIDDAY? Please notify camp directors by calling 615-298-9590 or emailing: UnderTheOaks@OakHillSchool.org. Your child will meet you in the front school office for dismissal.
