Why are there three prices for Camp Ehawee & Camp Black Hawk programs?
Understanding Resident Camp Tier Pricing
Resident Camp program opportunities for girls are subsidized by Girl Scouts of Wisconsin – Badgerland Council. This means that the cost of providing camp programs and operating the camp is greater than the amount paid by camp participants to attend. The tiered pricing system allows families the choice to help cover the true cost of resident camp if they are financially able.
• Tier A adds an additional $150.00 to Tier B. This reflects the actual cost of operating camp. This includes all support staff, replacement of supplies, maintenance of buildings and grounds and facility upgrades.
• Tier B adds an additional $70.00 to Tier C. This covers approximately 85% of the actual cost and is designed for those who can pay more but not the full fee.
• Tier C is the lowest cost of a program listed in the camp brochure and on the website. This covers approximately 70% of the actual cost of operating camp programs.
At Badgerland Council our goals for providing the Tier Pricing options are: to provide the highest quality programs possible; to serve all community income levels; and to preserve camp for generations to come. This program is voluntary and in no way influences the experience children receive, yet it offers the opportunity for families to take an active role in supporting the true cost of their child's camp experience. If you cannot afford the cost of Tier C, Campership grants are available and forms can be downloaded from www.badgerlandcamps.org or by contacting 800.236.2710 X 4303.
