Rates and Tiered Pricing
The 2024 Tiered Rate Structure
At Camp Downer, we are committed to ensuring that all kids can experience the friendships, community, and tradition that attending Camp Downer offers. Our mission as an organization is to make overnight summer camp affordable for all families. To that end, we are offering a voluntary tiered rate system and expanding our scholarship program. By choosing to pay a slightly higher rate, families can help us keep the overall cost of attending camp low. Paying a higher rate is voluntary, confidential and in no way influences the experience the campers receive, yet offers the opportunity for families to take an active role in supporting the true cost of their child’s camp experience.
During registration, you will be asked to choose one of the following rates.
Tier A
This tier most accurately reflects the financial needs of Camp Downer, including growth and long-term depreciation. If every family chose this rate, our organization would be able to plan for capital expenses, stabilize our financial future and fully cover our operating costs such as food, activity supplies and direct staffing.
One-week session: $710
Two-week session: $1400
Tier B
This tier most accurately accounts for Camp Downer’s actual yearly operating costs (i.e. breaking even) described above and funds salaries for program specialists, support staff, ongoing maintenance costs and depreciation.
One-week session: $610
Two-week session: $1300
Tier C
Our typical low-rate rate remains available so that as many families as possible can attend Camp Downer. Although this rate does not accurately reflect the true cost of attending Camp, it fulfills our mission to make overnight summer camp accessible to more families.
One-week session: $510
Two-week session: $1200
Tier D
Partial and full-scholarships are available. The updated scholarship application will be shared during the first week of January and due no later than January 21st, 2024.

Families are eligible for a full scholarship if their income is at or below 150% of the federal poverty guidelines or a half scholarship if their income is at or below 200% of the federal poverty guidelines.
