We encourage families to mark the application release date and time in their calendars as spaces within the program will go quickly. To streamline the process families should speak with their sponsoring NJ Elks Lodge before the application release to ensure they have all documents. Camp spaces will be allocated on a first come first serve basis depending on the available spaces for camper abilities and needs within a given session. No spaces can be held or reserved without the submission of the completed application.
