Summer Camp 2026 FAQs
+ Does my membership guarantee that I will get into a camp?
Our camp programs are incredibly popular and most camps are filled within the first hour after early member registration opens. Membership allows you access to the early membership registration period but does not guarantee that you will secure a camp registration.
+ Can I use my Individual membership for early camp registration and discounts?
You must have a Family or Grandparent Membership to qualify for camp benefits. Individual memberships offer benefits to the individual member only and not family members, and therefore do not apply. Children may not purchase individual memberships, but must be registered as part of a family membership.
+ When does member registration start?
Member registration opens online only on Tuesday, March 10th at 7:00am. Staff will be available by phone and email to assist you with your online registration.
+ How does the first day of member registration work?
Members should log in to their membership prior to 7am on the first day of registration (this year, Tuesday 3/10/2026). All members logged in by 7am will have equal opportunity to enter the queue when it opens. If our system exceeds a manageable capacity, you may be added to a wait room until more users can be added into the registration process.
If you receive a wait room notification, please follow the instructions and do not refresh your screen or click the back button. The system will automatically give you access as soon as space is available.
Please see the FAQ titled Tips for Navigating Camp Registration for more information about the camp registration process.
When you have access to registration, click the name for the first camp you would like to register. Complete all of the required information (indicated by a red asterisk) and click Add to Cart. To add additional camps, click the Summer Camp tab to return to the camp selection page. If you have completed an order and wish to register for more camps, click on the Roper Mountain logo to go back to the main page, and then click on Summer Camp Registration to get back to the camp selection page.

+ Tips for Navigating Camp Registration
- Complete your membership purchase or renewal prior to the camp registration date. Memberships purchased during camp registration may not receive their full member benefits.
- Complete your Member log-in test by March 5th to make sure your member benefits are accessible through your online account.
- Be signed in to your account prior to 7:00am on March 10th.
- Use a laptop or desktop computer for your registration when possible. Phones and tablets can be used but are more prone to processing errors.
- Do not use multiple devices to register. Orders for each household membership should be completed on one device through one browser only.
- We recommend the use of Google Chrome to register. We do not recommend the use of Safari as their security protocols sometimes block our system and cause inability to complete your registration.
- Be continuous with your order and do not press the back button or have long delays.
- Do not spend time registering for Early Drop Off and Extended Lunch Stay. These programs do not sell out and will be available to register at a later date.
- It is not necessary to check out after each camp is added to your cart but you must have continual activity during the rest of your registration. Having long pauses in your transaction could cause your session to timeout.
+ What discount do members receive?
Members receive a 10% discount on camps. There are no discounts for extended lunch stay or early drop-off.
+ How will members access the online registration?
To access registration during the members only window, you must be signed in to your account. Using the My Account button, choose Login and enter your username and password. When you are successfully signed in to your account, you will see your name and membership information under your profile. If you do not see your membership details, please call us at 864-355-8900 or email Audrey Pyle at apyle@greenville.k12.sc.us.
+ Can I still come in and register in person?
All registration is online only.
+ Can I call you and pay with my credit card?
No, we cannot accept credit card payments over the phone. For that reason, we do not accept any camp registrations via phone.
+ When does public registration open?
Public registration will begin on Thursday, March 12th.
Please be aware that our camp program is very popular. There will still be some availability, but most camps will fill during member registration. We highly recommend membership as your best opportunity to secure camp spots. However, while membership allows you access to the early membership registration period it does not guarantee that you will secure a camp registration.

+ I want to register my child for a camp that is outside his/her completed grade range. How do I do that?
Camp grade levels are determined by more than academic ability and we rarely allow campers to register for camps outside those designed for their current grade level. To request an Age Waiver Form, please contact Lisa Phillips at 864-355-8925. No age waivers will be approved until the close of member registration. Students who are registered in camps outside their grade levels without prior permission will be removed and refund policy may apply.
+ What if I need to change the camp(s) I’ve registered for?
We cannot “transfer” registrations from one camp to another. To change camps, you will need to register and pay for the new camp and then request a cancellation for the original camp.
If you have registered for the wrong session of a camp with multiple sessions, please contact us to have your registration moved to the correct session (pending space availability in your requested session).
