Tuition value

  • Our programs’ diversity and breadth are unequalled in California camps, and includes numerous programs unavailable anywhere else
  • Comparable camps charge significantly more, often several hundred – ask for the comparison charts and graphs.  ($500 for two-week sessions, on average)
  • Many things included in our tuition are extra at other places – often adding $100 -- $300 to the stated tuition
  • As a non-profit, we don’t pay taxes, we receive donations, staff work for less, thousands of hours of labor are donated, and we receive grants.  These allow us to offer a high-quality program at a non-profit rate.  Indeed, were we a for-profit camp, we would be $1900 for a one-week session and $3600 for a two-week session.
  • Nearly all of our new programs are funded from camp-family donations  -- ask about a program or facility you may wish to sponsor!
