Families of all campers (Ages 2 – 15) are eligible to apply for financial aid (scholarship). Scholarships are available for all Summer Camp sessions and age groups. Families may apply for support for more than one child; however, depending on demand, scholarships may be limited to one per family.

Awards will be made for up to a maximum of 70% of the camper’s registration fees. Typical awards are in the 20% to 40% range.

The New Canaan Nature Center will award scholarships based on the following considerations:
- Scholarship fund availability
- Demonstrated financial need of the applicant family
- Demonstrated interest in camp/nature from the child
- Available space in camp sessions
