It costs us approximately $400 per camper each summer.
Because we want camp to be available to all children, we do not charge for camp registration. Instead, we rely on free-will donations to cover the costs of camp for all children.
If you would like to make a donation, you can do so by sending an e-transfer to info@hopevalley.ca and writing "CAMPER DONATION" in the memo line with your child's full name.
