About This Activity
WAWA offers a limited number of O-Academy scholarships for youth ages 5-12. A full scholarship is worth $70 for the camp week. Sliding scale scholarships are also offered within the $105-$245 range, which is between 30 to 70% of a full registration ticket. Please fill out this form to be considered. The deadline for submitting scholarship applications is 3 weeks before registration closes for the camp you are interested in. Please note that to be considered for scholarships for our summer early bird price ($250), please submit your application no later than March 20. If you are chosen as a scholarship recipient, you must also complete a camp registration form and an emergency release form so that we can process your enrollment. WAWA education and administrative staff will award scholarships based on the following criteria: ▪ Financial need (Household Income) ▪ Proximity to the Outdoor Activity center ▪ Interest and involvement in environmental education/nature/the outdoors ▪ Potential for growth and development through the O-Academy experience ▪ Previously received an O-Academy scholarship ▪ Preference given to youth/families that identify as Black and/or of African descent Please note that we cannot hold spots for scholarship recipients. Scholarships can only be redeemed if camp registration is open and slots are available. Please plan to register as soon as possible once you are approved to ensure that your youth will be able to join us for camp. We expect campers receiving scholarships to attend all days of camp for that week. Please let us know as soon as possible if that is not possible for you.
