Overnight Camp Fees & Financial Aid

Tuition Tiers

Knowing that families have different abilities to pay our camp registration fees, Frost Valley YMCA offers a voluntary tier fee structure. All campers receive the same Frost Valley experience, no matter which amount you choose to pay. Simply choose the tier that is most suitable or comfortable for your family.

Three-tier pricing offers an opportunity for you to take an active role in supporting the true cost of your child’s camp experience at Frost Valley. As you consider your family’s financial situation, please also consider the true cost of camp.


TIER A is the overall cost of running camp for each camper, which includes direct expenses per camper, as well as general overhead, maintenance and improvements to our facilities. Select this tier if you are able to.


SUBSIDIZED TIERS

TIER B is a modestly subsidized rate. Please pay this tier is you are unable to pay Tier A. 

TIER C is a highly subsidized rate. 


In the event that Tier A, B, or C are out of your family’s budget, additional financial aid is available. During the registration process you will be able to complete an additional Financial Aid request. Financial assistance can be awarded for up to 2 weeks of camp. For more information, email campership@frostvalley.org

NOTE: There is a 5% registration fee on top of the tuition fee.

Financial Aid For Camp

At Frost Valley YMCA, we believe every child deserves a summer camp experience. That is why we offer financial aid – or “camperships” to families who apply. The generous support of donors provides financial assistance to individuals who otherwise would not have this life-enhancing opportunity. Without this loyal commitment to our mission, thousands would miss out on the joy of exploring the wilderness, laughing with friends, or making memories around a campfire.

NOTE: The Financial Assistance Application will be available October 1st as part of your camper’s online registration.

If you have specific questions about registration, financial support, or payment plans, please contact our registrar at (845) 985-2291, ext. 203 or by email at campership@frostvalley.org

Frost Valley YMCA is a 501 (c) 3 charitable organization, and as such we rely on the support of our donor community to help provide financial assistance and to continue to advance our programs and services. For more information or to make a gift, please visit www.frostvalley.org/donate
