Camp Participation Terms
These terms apply to every camper registered for SuCCess Summer STEM Camp 2027 (May 28 – June 4, 2027) at YMCA Camp Cullen, Trinity, TX. By checking “I agree” and typing your name at registration, the parent or guardian accepts them.
1. Tuition, payments and refunds
- Tuition is $1,499 per camper. Families may pay in full, or pay a $499 deposit and the balance in monthly payments. Every payment is due on or before May 14, 2027.
- The $499 deposit is non-refundable. It holds your child’s seat.
- If you cancel before April 14, 2027, everything you paid beyond the deposit is refunded. From April 14, 2027, no refunds are given.
- Monthly payments are charged automatically to the card you used at registration. You can change your card or pay the rest early from your family page.
- If a payment is more than 7 days late, the seat may be released and offered to another student. Payments already made follow the refund rules above.
- To cancel, email info@edulinkplus.org. The date of your email is the cancellation date.
2. What tuition includes

3. Drop-off, pickup and supervision
- Parents or guardians drop off and pick up their camper at YMCA Camp Cullen. Check-in is Friday, May 28 at 2:00 PM; pickup is Friday, June 4 at 3:00 PM.
- Campers are released only to the parent or guardian on the registration, or to an adult the parent names in writing to camp staff before pickup. Staff may ask for photo ID.
- Campers stay with their group and staff for the whole camp, including field trips. Campers may not leave camp or an activity on their own.
- Early pickup must be arranged in advance with camp staff.
4. Activities
Camp includes hands-on STEM projects, field trips to NASA / Space Center Houston and MD Anderson, and YMCA recreation such as archery, the climbing tower, high ropes, zip line, orienteering and team building. Activities are led or supervised by trained staff and follow YMCA Camp Cullen’s safety rules. Like any active program, they carry some risk of injury. Some partners, such as NASA or YMCA Camp Cullen, may require their own permission forms. We will share those in your family portal, and they must be completed before camp.
5. Health, medications and emergencies
- Please tell us about allergies, medications, dietary needs and any condition staff should know about, and keep us updated before camp.
- Medications must arrive in their original labeled containers and are held and given by camp staff as listed on the registration.
- If your child is sick or injured, we will contact you. In an emergency, if we cannot reach you right away, you authorize EduLINK+ and camp staff to get emergency medical care for your child. Families are responsible for any medical costs.
- A camper who becomes ill and cannot safely continue may need to be picked up early.
6. Camper conduct
- Campers are expected to be respectful and safe, follow staff directions, and stay with their group.
- Not allowed at camp: weapons, alcohol, tobacco or vaping products, drugs, and leaving assigned areas without staff.
- Phones may be collected or limited during activities and at night. EduLINK+ is not responsible for lost or damaged personal items.
- A camper who seriously or repeatedly breaks the rules may be sent home. The parent or guardian picks the camper up at their own cost, and no refund is given.
7. Photos and media
At registration you chose whether your child’s photos and videos may be used for educational or promotional purposes. We follow that choice. You can change it any time by emailing us.
8. Changes to the program
Schedules, speakers and field trips may change because of weather, partner availability or safety. If EduLINK+ cancels camp, families receive a full refund, including the deposit.
