Fees and what each is for

Registration: Opens your child's enrollment file and goes in with the application.
Holding a place: Keeps your child's place until the first day; it goes toward the first month's tuition.
Garden clothes: Boots and a hat for the beds and the trail. Sumi gives you the list of what to bring and what the center provides.
