When Fees Are Due
Fees are posted to your MyClubHub account at the beginning of each month and should be paid in full by the end of the month. You can make payments in any amount, at any time throughout the month – whatever works best for your budget.
How to Pay
The easiest way to pay is to set autopay in your MyClubHub account.
Make payments anytime during the month in amounts that work best for your family.
We accept ACH (bank transfer) and credit/debit cards.
A small processing fee applies for card payments.
If Plans Change
We understand that plans change. Fees hold your child’s spot, but we know life happens.
Late payments? Absences? We’re here to help.
Scholarships or adjusted fees may be available if your family’s circumstances change. Fees are prorated for children who join mid-month but are not refunded if your child is absent or withdraws from the Club.
FAQs
We know families may have questions about membership.
Here are answers to questions we hear most often.
General Questions
How much does membership cost?
Monthly fees vary by location and program length. Reduced rates are available based on household size and income. Teen membership (middle and high school) is free.
How are monthly fees calculated?
Reduced fees are determined using your household income and the number of people living in your home, based on federal poverty guidelines.
Who should be included in my household count?
Anyone living in your home should be included, including grandparents. Adults with income should be included in the total household income.
Are fees lower during shorter months?
No. Fees are divided into 9 equal payments across the school year, so they remain consistent even during months with holidays or breaks.
Are fees prorated if my child starts mid-month?
Yes. Your first month’s fee will be adjusted based on your child’s start date.
Payments
When are fees due?
Fees are posted at the beginning of each month and should be paid by the end of the month. You may make payments in smaller amounts throughout the month.
How can I pay?
Payments can be made through MyClubHub via ACH (bank transfer) or credit/debit card (a processing fee applies to card payments). Autopay is also available.
What happens if I don't pay on time?
Our team will reach out with reminders and support. If fees remain unpaid, your child may lose eligibility. If your financial situation has changed, please contact us right away—we may be able to help.
Application Fees
What is the $25 application fee?
A $25 fee is billed when you submit your application. It holds your child’s place in line but does not guarantee immediate enrollment.
Is the application fee refundable?
Yes, if you withdraw before your child begins attending. Once attendance begins, the fee is non-refundable.
Do I pay separate application fees for summer and the school year?
Yes. They are considered separate membership periods. Application fees may be waived during select early registration periods.
Do CCAP families pay the application fee?
Yes. All elementary families pay the $25 application fee. Families approved for CCAP do not pay monthly fees.
What if I can’t afford the application fee?
