What are the ages ranges for STJ Camps?
Each camp has its own age range, with options available for campers ages 4-16. If a camper turns 4 before the beginning of camp, STJ will allow enrollment.
When does registration close?
Registration closes on the Sunday before each week begins. Day-of registrations are not permitted. For registrations after the Thursday proceeding camp, a $55 late fee will be added. Register early to avoid missing out.
Does STJ pro-rate add-ons such as lunch, before & After Care, or TraNsportation?
No. The add-on options offered are the only ones available. STJ does not pro-rate or refund any portion that is unused.
Can I add on days to a 3 or 4 day camp?
STJ offers a Thursday and Friday Camp add-on for Ultimate Sports Camp, if you need to add 1 or 2 days to fill out a full week of camp. All add-ons can be found in the LeagueApps store after completing registration.
Where do your lunches come from?
All meals are prepared on-site at Vim & Victor by our and by partner restaurants.
What is the counselor to camper ratio?
STJ aims to provide an environment where campers can benefit from small group instruction. For our younger campers (7 and under), STJ’s goal is to maintain a camper to counselor ratio of approximately 9:1 in their individual group. For older campers (8 and up), the approximate ratio is 10:1. For the site as a whole, the approximate camper-to-counselor ratio is 7:1 including the STJ Leadership Team, such as the Camp Director, Assistant Camp Director and on-site safety representatives.
