About Tiered Pricing – Realizing that families have different abilities to pay, we’ve instituted a voluntary tiered pricing program. Tier A covers the true cost of providing camp. Please pay Tier A prices whenever possible so we can continue to provide highly qualified staff and relevant programs at a well maintained camp. Tier B partially subsidizes fees for families unable to pay the entire cost of camp. This pricing structure is voluntary, requires no paper work and in no way will affect the experience each child receives.
Lunch
Please send a sack lunch with your child to camp each day. Lunch will not be provided and is not included in the cost of tuition. Please send a nonperishable lunch as refrigerators are not available for camper use.
