How to Apply For Camp

Step by Step

When Applications go live, you can set up a new account and complete online application at zajacranch.campbrainregistration.com. Keep note of your  username and password. You can log into the account at any time to check for status updates and payment allocations when the camper application has been approved.

Please make sure you complete all sections and forms of the application.

When you have completed all the camper details you can submit your application and our team will review and reach out should they have any questions. Please note, your application does not guarantee a spot at camp until the camper has fully completed registration forms and has been medically approved by our Nusing Director. 

Once approved, you will receive a confirmation email from our Registration office with all pertinent information regarding payment, funding opportunities and additional details on next steps. 

At this point you can log back in to your account to see the updated status of your application. You will see it has been changed to ‘approved’. – payment is required to secure the spot at camp if you have not done so already.

You must fill out the form and the request to pay amount is $1680 and send it back to AFU. AFU will issue you a reference number, please keep this reference number as payment receipt for camp. AFU will let Zajac Ranch know that you are paying for camp with Autism funding. When Zajac receives notification from AFU we will update your account and the balance owing will be zero.

“I would without hesitation recommend Zajac Ranch to other families and have already done so. Our child feels a sense of freedom to be who she is without judgement. She loves connecting with other campers and learning more about others’ struggles and challenges. She feels accepted and valued when she is at Zajac Ranch. We are ever so grateful to have found this amazing place.”

“We recently hosted a camp at Zajac Ranch and were so impressed with the improvements at the facility since last year. The counsellors and staff were communicative, engaged, organized and fun. In addition, the food was superb. Chef Chris happily accommodated our requests and our campers were well fed so they had plenty of energy to do all of the fun activities they were able to do throughout the week.”

“I have nothing but praise to offer about our experience at Zajac Ranch. The staff, the food, the accommodations, the activities were all top notch. I would think it would be the perfect place for future school camps.”

We had the most incredible time at Zajac Ranch and enjoyed every single minute of it. The staff as usual were terrific and accommodating, so nice to see some familiar faces from last year!

First of all, thanks SO MUCH for accommodating all of us and our friends! Both kids and adults had a blast and it was definitely a highlight of our summer…the kids keep asking us when they can go again!! The counselors especially were awesome for making accommodations and being flexible with our special kids, Alex, Adbul, Joe, Devon, Emily, Justina, etc….all amazing!

It was a thrill for me to be able to take both autistic children to camp and my son managed to stay for 2 nights there. They both enjoyed the horseback riding so much! Alex and Justina were extremely patient and kind, took their time with us during canoeing.

I just returned from another excellent camp at Zajac Ranch with my children. We really cannot tell you how much we appreciate all the hard work that goes into making a program of this quality and magnitude run! Thank you sincerely!

I want people to experience what they can do at this amazing camp. The can build things, create things. Start living their dream, go out and see the world. And that’s why I want people to join me on this amazing adventure.
