Frequently Asked Questions

• Where is Camp Krem Yosemite located?
  Camp Krem Yosemite’s address is 45895 CA-49, Ahwahnee, CA 93601. You can find us on Google Maps. We are less than an hour from Yosemite National Park, between Oakhurst and Mariposa. Please feel free to contact us if you would like more specific directions to get to Camp!
• What is the process for camper enrollment in a session?
  Once you submit your camper application, it will be reviewed by our Registrar and/or Program Director. Once your camper’s placement in a session has been accepted, you will receive a “Confirmation of Enrollment” email. Please note that your camper’s enrollment/placement in a session is not confirmed until you receive this “Confirmation of Enrollment” email. Some Camp sessions are more popular than others. If we are unable to enroll your camper right away, they will be automatically added to our Waitlist, and we will do our best to enroll them if possible. For sessions that have a waitlist, we will enroll using a random lottery system, to ensure that our enrollment process is as equitable as possible. If your camper is on the waitlist for the session you originally applied for, feel free to contact our Registrar, Gail, at campkrem@gmail.com, to see if there are spaces in other sessions.
• Can I use Regional Center funding for Camp Krem sessions?
  Camp Krem is vendored with the Regional Center system. If you qualify for Out of Home Respite (OHR) or Social/Recreation (SRA) services, please contact your Case Manager regarding funding for Camp Krem events.
  Regional Center Clients: If you are a Regional Center client with approved services, the Regional Center pays the majority of Camp fees (up to $185/day for 1:3 supervision, up to $260/day for 1:1 supervision), as determined by CA DDS and the vendoring Regional Center. Camp Krem provides additional services and supplemental activities, above and beyond basic respite services, thus our daily fee exceeds the Regional Center rate and there will be a “Parent Share of Cost” balance due.
  Information for Purchases Of Service as follows:  
  • Vendor Name:  Camping Unlimited for the Developmentally Disabled
  • Vendor Number:  HS1121
  • Code: 850
  • Subcode (use one):  SRA01, SRA03, OHR01, OHR03   (The numbers indicate supervision ratio)
  • Units:  Number of days of session (include pickup day and drop off day)Parent/Legal Guardian/Camper is responsible for whatever the Regional Center does not pay. The Regional Center balance will remain on your account until Regional Center payment is received. A copy of your Regional Center Authorized Purchase of Service (POS) is required prior to the event/session. It is the family’s responsibility to notify the Regional Center Case Manager of the need for a POS. Without a POS submitted, you will be accepting responsibility for full payment.
    All Parent Share and Private Pay balances will be due one month prior to the start of the session.
• Will there be transportation provided to and from Camp?
  We currently offer bus transportation to/from Camp Krem Yosemite and Pleasanton, CA (Val Vista Park). A transportation fee applies to cover our costs. For camper families who do not wish to use bus transportation, there is the option of driving your camper to Camp on arrival day. Transportation sign ups will be available once campers are enrolled for a session. We hope to be able to expand our transportation locations soon.
• What is the Summer Camp cancellation policy?
  Once your camper has been enrolled, you will receive a Confirmation of Enrollment email. If you no longer wish for them to attend their enrolled session, please notify us within five days, to avoid incurring a cancellation fee. Once your confirmation “5 day cancellation window” has passed, a session cancellation will incur a fee of $250. Please see the COVID-19 policy exception, below.
• COVID-19 Exception: 
  If your camper tests positive for, or exhibits symptoms of, COVID-19, or comes into contact with somebody who has tested positive, within ten days of their camp session, they will not be able to come to Camp. In this case, we will waive the cancellation fee and issue you a full refund, or work with you on getting your camper into a different camp session.
• What COVID-19 policies and precautions are in place?
  We take the health and safety of our campers and staff very seriously. Please visit our COVID-19 Policies page for more information.
