Camp Pricing
Our Commitment to Accessibility and Growth
Here at GLBC, our hope is that camp is available for all kids. We want to provide opportunities for children to make new friends, learn new skills, unplug from technology, and spend time in nature with the Creator. Part of our commitment to this is shown in our pricing.
We are adjusting the way we price camp to show the full cost of camp.
What Does This Mean?
Gardom Lake summer camps have always been subsidized through donations to give a constant price, we are now showing that subsidized price and giving the option to pay the full cost of camp.
What Has Changed?
Not much has changed, we are still keeping the fully subsidized cost of camp but we have added another two options for those who feel like they maybe do not need the full subsidy.
Why?
We are a not-for-profit, which means all of our camps are subsidized by donation, we are trying to be more transparent and invite people into the process of getting kids to camp.
The True Cost of Summer Camp
There is a lot that goes into a week of summer camp!
GLBC subsidizes costs for each camper that steps on site and we have for years.
There is so much that goes into a week of camp, food, activities, 24 hour care, it all starts to add up.
We love camp and are committed to keeping it as affordable and accessible as possible but the total cost for one week of summer camp far exceeds the price we've traditionally offered. That is why we are trying out a new way to fund camp.
Partnering to Keep Camp Affordable
If camp has been impactful for you or your children, we want to give you the opportunity to join us in our efforts to keep camp affordable by selecting the tier that works best for your family. GLBC thanks you for continuing to partner with us by sending your kids to summer camp!
