Walden offers program insurance through CampMinder’s partnership with Trip Mate. Please consider protecting your investment by purchasing either the Standard or Enhanced Plan when completing the camper application. The former costs five percent of your tuition fee and reimburses up to 100 percent of non-refundable camp fees for covered events, such as illiness, injury and job loss. The latter costs seven-and-a-half percent of your tuition fee and includes Cancel for Any Reason coverage. This feature reimburses you 75 percent of the non-refundable tuition owed to camp if you should cancel your camper’s session for any reason.

diversity, equity, inclusion

Walden understands that a relevant camp community requires the harmonies of many voices—not only those that inspire, but also those that instruct and challenge. We strive to be a camp where diversity is celebrated and supported, and where each camper and staff member is provided the resources and opportunities to succeed. Our mission of teaching empathy and respect is incomplete if it only serves those who think and look like we do. We believe that our camp can be anyone’s camp, and that our greatest strength lies therein.

Walden is an Equal Opportunity Employer that hires qualified staff regardless of their race, religion, color, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, age, veteran status or any other basis covered by appropriate law.
