Camp
Fees are determined based on the family income. Participation
in USDA free or reduced lunch makes campers eligible for a lower
camp fee. Please contact the camp director for specific details
about the cost for attending camp.
Transportation
is provided to and from camp on an air-conditioned bus. The bus
will depart on the first day of the session at 9:00 am and return
on the last day of the session between 12:30 and 1:00 pm. Departure
and arrival will be at the Richmond Baptist Association: 3111
Moss Side Ave. Richmond, VA 23222.
After
the summer that a camper is 14 years old, he or she may be invited
to return as a Counselor in Training (CIT). This decision is based
on the camper’s achievement and leadership abilities. CIT’s
will return the following summer during the younger session of
their gender.
