I Posted earlier asking this, trying again...
Her friends that got re accepted go to the same school as her? Her school might be the issue. I know of a different camp that is trying to filter out their clientele by not reaccepting girls from a certain school.

They go to the same school as her.

I agree with OP - Camp has no right to reject a girl that went to camp for a few summers in a row, followed the rules/behaved while there, and applied during the priority registration period as a returning camper for the same season/half she attended in the previous years.

If the camp anticipated that for some reason this year they won't have room for last year's returning crop, they have planned very poorly and are at fault. They should have: built additional bunkhouses, hired additional staff, etc....

Imagine if a school decided to downscale their class of 30 students to 25. They inform 5 girls that they need to find themselves a new school as there's no space for them.

Something went wrong here, and worst of all, as OP posts, it's probably too late for her to get in elsewhere even if she wanted to.


Thank you!!! Thank you for this post. I started to feel like I'm losing my mind and that this whole situation is normal.

OP if all is as you are saying this is crazy. Camps basically auto accept prior campers it’s always been like that I don’t know why anyone is saying otherwise… so either there is a big mistake here OR they don’t want to say the reason why if they really have an issue with prior behavior of some sort… and think it’s easier to just say no room

It’s more than just OPs niece. Girls weren’t taken back for no reason at all. I really feel terrible for them.

There is no issue . They're claiming they really don't have room . I suspect they gave first half spots to second half girls that applied for first half now .
