All 2024 Day Camp Scholarship funds have been awarded. Please check back in 2025 for next year’s Summer Day Camp Scholarships.
For All Applicants: The Indy Parks and Recreation Summer Day Camp Financial Aid Program is designed for families seeking assistance with the registration cost for your youth summer day camp camper(s). Here are the steps you must complete before your application will be processed.
• 1st Step – Register your camper(s) for all of the weeks you are asking for assistance. Camp registration must be completed by calling Customer Service (317) 327-PARK (7275) option #2 or contact the park directly where the camper would like to attend camp.
• 2nd Step – a $5.00 Non-refundable deposit must be made, per camper, per week for each camp you wish your camper to attend. If this step is not completed, your application will be denied. If funds are no longer available your total deposit will be refunded.
• 3rd Step – Complete this Day Camp Financial Aid Application along with uploading required documentation
• 4th Step – Indy Parks will process applications and award financial aid on a first-come, first-serve basis. You will be notified in writing or electronic communication within three weeks of receipt of your application.
NOTE: Financial Aid is awarded based on financial need only. Financial Aid may range from 50%-100%. (This will not include the deposits) If you decide not to attend the week of camp you registered for, you will NOT be refunded your deposit. You must notify (in writing) the Park Manager by Wednesday at 6 p.m. the week prior to the week you cannot attend. Failure to comply will result in a withdraw for the remaining weeks of camp and your deposit will not refunded. Scholarships are for Marion County residents only. This financial aid application is a one-time assistance for Indy Parks’ Summer Day Camp Program. The application must be completed to be valid. We will hold on your application if any information is missing and will not be able to process it until the missing information is provided. Applications will be considered as long as funds and Summer Day Camp registration space remain available. You are encouraged to apply early since space and financial aid are limited. The information you furnish to Indy Parks is exempt from disclosure as a public record by Indiana Code [IC 5-14-3-4(a)(5)]. You should mark “CONFIDENTIAL” on the documents you submit.
