Summer Registration Policies
COVID 19 UPDATE:
We are an indoor camp. Although we are no longer required to contact trace within the camp group or quarantine the camp, in the case of COVID within a household, we ask you to kindly inform the studio and your camper MUST wear a mask when attending our program. Anyone who tests positive or has symptoms is required to follow the CDC recommendations for isolation and to stay home. Fully vaccinated staff or campers with no COVID-like symptoms do not need to quarantine or be tested following an exposure to someone with suspected or confirmed COVID-19. They should get tested 3-5 days after exposure and wear a mask until they receive a negative test result. If they are experiencing symptoms, they should be clinically evaluated for COVID-19 and tested for COVID-19, if indicated. Campers with runny nose, coughing and excessive sneezing will not be allowed into the studio without a negative COVID test.
In case of illness or missed camp due to COVID, you MUST provide PCR results (not a home test) and submit in writing. A 50% credit less the registration fee will be issued and applied to account. Credit is good till Spring of 2024 (does NOT apply to summer 2024).
Camp will be available beginning the Week of May 30th. You are welcome to register below.
Cancelation for Summer 2023: We are a small family owned community art studio. These last few years have been extremely challenging and we have done our very best to pivot our business while providing quality service and care for our students. We appreciate the support our community has shown us as we navigated unprecedented times. We are unable to provide any refunds for canceled camps after our normal cancellation policy listed below. Please make sure you read carefully and understand that there are NO FULL REFUNDS being issued after April 1, 2023. However, we do acknowledge individual situations and the uncertainty of our times. This needs to be determined on a case by case basis and a partial or full credit may be issued towards Art Kits To Go at the discretion of studio director after April 1, 2023. Please contact us at [email protected] to arrange for a credit issue and to redeem on any programming.

La Dee Da is unable to provide refunds or credits after April 30, 2023 due to limited enrollment and expenses incurred. We understand situations arise and plans can change! La Dee Da will allow you to give your spot (less registration fee) to a friend or family member but will be unable to assist in finding replacement campers for your child’s spot. Please provide notifications of enrollment changes including the name and age of the new camper via email to [email protected]. We do not provide refunds for absences, late arrivals, or early withdrawals of campers.

- The refund & cancellation policy also applies towards fees paid for early and post camp care.
