Why 3 Prices for Summer Camp? The Choice is Yours!
Each family is different, so Camp Bethel offers a voluntary fee program. You know your family's finances better than we do, so choose the fee most suitable for your family. All campers receive the EXACT SAME QUALITY Camp Bethel experience, no matter what amount you choose to pay or contribute.
The Supporters Fee is what it actually costs Camp Bethel to provide a summer camp experience for one camper, including counselor and lifeguard pay, utilities, insurance, meals, building and grounds maintenance, vehicle upkeep, replacing outdated equipment, accreditation and permits, program supplies and curriculum. Choosing the Sustainers Fee (actual cost + $50 gift) gives you the opportunity to help us do more with the mission funding we receive. You help us stretch our limited campership funds to help more children experience the power of camp. You help Camp Bethel make needed improvements and foster future growth in all we do. The Subsidized Fee is available only through May 1 unless the camp is "ON SALE." You may be surprised to learn that this fee does not reflect what it costs to offer summer camp programs. This reduced (subsidized) rate is made possible through the mission funding dollars we receive from our District congregations, our annual fund-raising events, and gifts from individuals who value the impact the summer camp experience at Camp Bethel has on children, youth, individuals and families.
