Junior Fife and Drum Camp has not had a tuition increase since 2014. However, we expect that for 2020, our tuition will increase slightly. Our costs have risen during these 6 years, plus we have assumed additional costs that we did not have 6 years ago such as paying for background security checks for our volunteers.
As well, many of our volunteers pay for necessary camp items such as the cost of the website, daily snacks for the campers, and medical supplies. This is very kind and our staff does this gratefully, but we think that necessary camp expenses should be paid for by the camp rather than our volunteers.
Stay tuned! We'll really try to keep our tuition as low as possible as we've always done. Camp is an amazing value! But, we do expect for our tuition price to rise slightly next year.
