General Information
We accept only full-time registrants. Campers are generally 18 or older, though we will consider younger applicants if accompanied by a parent, guardian, or designated responsible adult.
The full fee of $1,380 includes room, board, and tuition. Participants staying off-site pay a reduced fee of $950, which includes tuition and all meals.
If the week is oversubscribed on February 9, we will hold a lottery of all applications submitted online or postmarked by February 1. If you pay by check rather than by PayPal, the postmark date of an application is the postmark date on the mail that contains the deposit (or full fee). Beginning February 2, we will consider applications in order of receipt.
Acceptance notifications and all other correspondence and packets will be sent via the email address from your registration form, unless you specify otherwise.
Your final balance is due on May 10. Any registrations after May 10 must be paid in full.
Registration Form
There are several ways to submit your registration.
You may submit an online registration (available January 2) and pay online through Paypal (we strongly encourage this option) or mail a check.
Or, you may print a registration form PDF (available January 2) and mail completed applications, and a check made out to BACDS, to:
BACDS Hey Days c/o Alex Bradley

International applicants - please register online and contact Allen Dodson at groguet01@gmail.com for payment options.
Scholarships
If you don’t need a scholarship yourself, please consider making a donation towards the scholarship fund (to help make camp available to everyone across the economic spectrum) as part of your registration.
Because Green Mountain Retreat provides all dining hall support and other basic services, we do not need all campers to sign up for a chore. However, we have important tasks, such as dance floor maintenance, snack set up, auction set up, and camp set up and strike, for which we need Work-Trade Scholarship folks. All are eligible to apply for this scholarship.
Youth Scholarships are available to campers age 18-30.
The Jude Biggs scholarship is for a talented, aspiring dance musician to attend camp for free.
We are also pleased to be able to offer several Need-Based Scholarships. You must indicate the amount you need.
Payment amounts
Full Payment | Work-Trade | Youth Scholarship | Jude Biggs Musician Scholarship | |
On Campus | $1,380 | $980 | $690 | $0* |
Off-Site | $ 950 | $550 | $475 | $0* |
*Occasionally, this full scholarship is split between two people
COVID-19 Policies
Vaccination: While we recommend that you have up-to-date COVID-19 vaccinations, it is not required.
Masking: Masking will be optional at camp. If anyone tests positive at camp, masking may be required for at least 24 hours. (We recommend that you wear masks in any indoor public setting the week prior to camp.)
Testing: We encourage you to take a COVID-19 test 24-48 hours prior to arrival at camp, especially if flying. Upon arrival at camp, you must show a negative COVID-19 test taken within the last 6 hours. Please bring additional COVID-19 test kits to camp. There may be additional rounds of testing during the week. Rapid antigen, PCR, or NAAT tests may be used for COVID-19 testing.
Cancellation Policy
Your $200 deposit is non-refundable. From May 10 on, your full fee is non-refundable, with the following exception: We will offer a full refund of your registration fee, minus your $200 deposit, if you contract COVID and will not have completed your isolation period before camp starts or are still symptomatic. Other situations will be considered on a case-by-case basis.
If you need to cancel, please notify the registrar, Alex Bradley via phone at (301) 789-5425 or via email at bacdsheydaysreg@gmail.com as soon as possible. Your cancellation may allow someone else to attend camp. Please note that your cancellation is not confirmed until the registrar has spoken with you or replied to your email.
