Medical and Insurance Issues
Upon acceptance into Apple Hill’s summer program, all participants are required to submit emergency contact information and a medical physical form from their doctor. This is required by New Hampshire state law. Any medical costs incurred during the time of camp will be billed to the primary parent or guardian of the camper. In the case of serious illness or medical emergency, the advice of a physician will be followed. In such an instance, a representative from Apple Hill’s summer staff will contact the primary parent or guardian as soon as possible.
Participant Work Program
In keeping with the spirit of Apple Hill, all participants—scholarship and non-scholarship alike—will be asked to perform daily tasks to help run Apple Hill during their session. These tasks may include food preparation, building and grounds maintenance, office and administrative support, and special musical assistance.
Multiple Sessions
Multiple session attendees receive a $75 discount per session (included in above fees). If you stay for the four day bridge between sessions, the room and board fee is $300 ($75.00/day).
