Note: Applicants who receive an invite to register will be asked to make a deposit of $200 to hold their spot. Because of the free nature of this program, we want to make sure people do not cancel at the last minute which could potentially prevent another person from filling that spot. Your money will be returned after the first day the camp starts. If you cancel less than 2 weeks before the camp start date, your deposit will be considered a donation to Friends of the Yampa, which will help pay for future DINO camps.
