Transportation

We offer bus transportation to and from Camp Krem Yosemite, from Pleasanton, for parents/guardians who do not wish to drive their camper to Camp Krem Yosemite. There is a transportation fee of $152.73 each way ($305.46 round-trip).

Camp Krem is vendored with the Regional Center system as an Out of Home Respite provider. If you qualify for OHR services, contact your Case Manager regarding Camp Krem events.

Regional Center Clients: If you are a Regional Center client with approved Out of Home Respite services, the Regional Center may pay the majority of Camp fees (up to $236.07/day for 1:3 supervision, up to $601/day for 1:1 supervision), as determined by CA DDS and the vendoring Regional Center.

If your Camp Krem event is funded by your Regional Center, you will only be charged a “Parent Share of Cost” for the enhanced experience (additional services and supplemental activities, above and beyond basic respite services).

Cancellation Policy:

Once your camper’s enrollment has been confirmed, you will have five days to notify us if you no longer wish for them to participate, without incurring a fee. Cancellations after that point will incur a fee of $250 for 1:1 supervision, and $150 for 1:3 supervision. Please see the COVID-19 exception to this policy, 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.
