It’s go time!

Thank you to those who have contributed their shared costs for 2023. If you have not, now is YOUR chance to invest in our 2023 camp costs! Contributing your shared costs will result in your receipt of our welcome email, which includes the questionnaire we use to get your specifics for your mini camp or personal camping areas. If you have received your questionnaire, and have not filled it out, please do so ASAP so we can get moving on mapping with accurate information.

WHAT ARE SHARED COSTS?   

RND has costs throughout the year. We pay for container rentals, liability insurance, taxes (because we’re a “business” to keep all of us from being personally liable if something were to go wrong), rentals, transportation, fuel for generators and fire art, maintenance costs for our various projects, porta potties, gray water dumps, lighting, production costs and rentals, bars, infrastructure, etc.  All campers share in our Red Nose camp costs, even our organizers and leads. Red Nose District does not have paid positions, so all funds go to producing camp, or getting us ready to produce camp in the next year.

Our goal for the past couple of years has been to make camp affordable for those who want to be here, but also leave options open for those who would like to contribute more. We want camp to feel affordable for folks who want to be here, but also need to break even each year so that no one is paying out of pocket to run our camp. Some of you might notice that our base fee went up to $250 this year, which has to do with increased costs in a variety of areas (ones that are outside our control). Anyone is welcome to view the budget at any time, all you have to do is ask.

TO CONTRIBUTE YOUR SHARED COSTS:

  • We are asking you to PAY WHAT YOU CAN.  We will not make our budget if the entire camp pays at $250, so if you can squeak out $5, $10, $15, or $50 more, please do.  Cost brackets are as follows:

    1. Tier One:  $250

    2. Tier Two:  $300

    3. Tier Three:  $350

    4. Tier Four:  $400

    5. Tier Five:  Klown’s choice! (Any amount over $400)
