Confirmations

Those registering online will receive an immediate confirmation to the email address on file with the camper's profile. Those registering via mail or fax will receive an email confirmation once their registration has been processed. This could take up to five business days after it is received at the main GSSJC office.

Please note that all registration confirmations and camp communications are sent via email. We use the email address that is noted on your camper's profile. Please make sure you are using a valid and current email address to avoid missing any important information and reminders that may be sent out before camp.

Payment Due Dates

A $50 deposit per session is required for all registrations. The $50 deposit is nonrefundable. You are free to make payments at any time on your camp balance. Payment in full is due no later than four weeks before the session start.

Before the due date, an invoice will be sent to the camper's parent or caregiver. After the due date, campers not paid in full will be removed from the session.

Payment Installments

Once you register, you are free to make payments on your camp balance in several ways. Payments can be made online, in any amount, to your camp balance as often as you would like. Automatic payment plans can also be set up in the registration portal - this allows parents and caregivers to have their selected number of camp payments drafted from their preferred payment method on the schedule they set. Payments can also be sent to: GSSJC Resident Camp Registrars, 3110 Southwest Freeway, Houston, TX 77098.

Make sure to note the camper's name, week and session on the check or money order so payments are properly credited. There is no limit on the number of payments you make to your camp balance. However, GSSJC asks that each mailed-in payment be a minimum of $10.

All registrations made after the payment due date must be paid in full.

If you need assistance with paying your camper's fees online, email the camp registrars at registration@sjgs.org or call 713-292-0370 for assistance. Customer Service hours are 8:30 a.m.-5 p.m., Monday through Friday.

Refund Policy

If you cancel in writing more than four weeks before the start date of the camp session, a full refund of all camp fees paid, minus the $50 non-refundable deposit, will be made. The $50 deposit and any other payments made on the canceled session may be transferred to another 2021 council camp session until four weeks prior to the start of the canceled session.  Changes and cancellations made less than four weeks before the camp session’s start date are non-refundable and non-transferrable, including changes made due to a camper’s inability to meet a stated prerequisite skill. We highly recommend that parents consider taking advantage of the protection plan available for purchase through the CampDoc portal, which provides travel and emergency medical protection if the camper must cancel their session.

Should your camper need to change to another session or week due to non-medical reasons, requests will be accommodated based on availability.

All cancellation or session change documentation should be emailed to registration@sjgs.org or faxed to 713-292-0343, Attn: Resident Camp Registrar.

Cookie Dough

Girls who earn Cookie Dough by participating in the Girl Scout Cookie Program can apply a portion or all Cookie Dough toward the balance of the camp fee by sending the original Cookie Dough with the payment form. Cookie Dough may not be used toward the deposit.
