Camperships = Financial Assistance: A limited fund for partial or full camperships is available to help families who qualify for reduced school meals in Virginia. See the Needs Calculator Chart below for eligibility, or email the Camp Director to discuss your specific situation.
Maximum campership per child is up to $250 for a 3-day/2-night camp and up to $400 for a 6-day/5-night camp. If your family needs financial assistance in order for your child to have a camp experience, follow these instructions:
INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Parent: Choose your program and dates. Listed by date at our CAMPS page.
2. Parent: Calculate your exact requested amount of assistance. Decide how much you can afford to pay toward the camp fee. We ask families to pay as much as they can so that our Campership Fund can reach more families. Maximum campership per child is up to $250 for a 3-day/2-night camp, $250 for a 5-day Day Camp, and up to $400 for a 6-day/5-night camp. What is the cost of your chosen program? Subtract what you can pay from the Subsidized Fee for your chosen program. The difference is the amount you are requesting in assistance.
3. Parent: Communicate your program, dates, and your exact requested amount of assistance to your pastor, social worker, agency worker, or school guidance counselor.
4. Parent: Have your pastor, social worker, agency worker, or school guidance counselor complete and submit the on-line Campership Financial Assistance Application below, OR have them complete and submit a paper form, (printable PDF is available below). We prefer the on-line form.
5. Parent: Complete the on-line Summer Camp Registration Form. (A printable Summer Camp Registration Form is below.) Alternately, use paper forms and mail them to camp together.
Camperships are granted first-come, first-served, only one per camper per summer, and camperships are currently only available through this Campership Financial Assistance Application. Maximum campership per child is up to $250 for a 3-day/2-night camp or 5-day Day Camp, and up to $400 for a 6-day/5-night camp. A response email will inform families of granted campership requests.
Donations to Camp Bethel’s Campership Fund are always needed, and are fully tax-deductible. For Virlina District Congregations' "Good-As-Gold" program, click HERE.
