Camp is open to students in Grades 7 to 12 in the Fall 2010 School year. Camp runs from Saturday, August 28 to Friday, September 3, 2010.
Parents, please be advised that we will be having the opportunity for campers to be baptized if they so choose. If you would like to come and join us for that please let us know and we can give you more information on joining us.
Please be aware that with the new tax regulations regarding the 13% HST tax, TACF has to collect tax on top of our camp registration fees. We do have a grace period in which you can take advantage of a lower camp fee by registering by April 30th 2010 and paying in full for both the registration costs and 5% GST. Any registrations from May 1st 2010 will be subject to the HST tax required by the government. Camp Freshwind fees include Camp meals, accomodations, T-Shirt, transportation to and from TACF Airport, and a camp Freshwind Memorable item.
Beat the HST Rate (by April 30/10) - $350 (+$17.50 GST) Regular Rate (May 1 - July 10/10) - $365 (+$47.45 HST) Late Rate (after July 11/10) - $380 (+$49.40 HST)
