You do NOT need to complete a financial need application for this option - all we ask is that you choose your most affordable option so that we can help as many families as possible with financial assistance.
We depend on fundraising to help provide this tuition option and scholarships for our families. You can choose an option of $500, $600, $700, or $800 at Registration - payment plans are available at check-out.
(Option #2 Subsidized Tuition EXAMPLE: If you choose the $500 option - Camp Twitch & Shout will fundraise to pay the $400 balance. If you choose the $700 option - Camp Twitch & Shout fundraises to pay the $200 balance.)
Option #2 will remain OPEN until Camp starts or all Camper slots are filled.
Option #3: Scholarship applications are available for those who cannot afford the above tuition options. A $50 application fee is required at Registration to apply - Scholarships are given based on financial need and on the amount of funds that we have available.

Transportation to & from Camp
Last Summer our Campers came from 30 different states!
Flying to and or from Camp Twitch & Shout: We provide a Chartered Bus for our children flying in and out of Atlanta Hartsfield Airport (ATL). One of our Volunteers will meet your child at their gate on arrival and will stay with your child at their gate until they board their plane to fly home. We work closely with Delta Airlines and the TSA in Atlanta. Delta has been an amazing help so if there is an option to fly with them (not required) we encourage you to do so!
*Note: We do not have room on our Charter Bus for parents or other family members.
Rental Cars are available at ATL Airport, and there is a shuttle service to Athens that leaves almost every hour called "Groome Transportation". You can book reservations online at www.groometransportation.com.
