Making Camp Affordable

Program Costs and Pricing Model

Actual v. Adjusted: Catalyst

We're asking Catalyst campers and their families to choose between paying the actual price and the adjusted price. The actual price reflects the real costs needed to deliver a full HoneyRock Catalyst 1 or 2 experience. We recognize that some Catalyst campers and their families cannot afford the actual price at this time but still desire to come to HoneyRock for the summer. If that is the case, you can opt for the adjusted price.

This ability to choose between the actual and the adjusted prices is made possible through the generosity of contributions to our annual fund drive and camper scholarship endowments. We invite you to pay the price that is most suitable for you and your family at this time. The price you choose to pay will not influence the experience you (your camper) will receive.

Actual v. Adjusted: Voyageur and 2:22 Programs

If you are financially prepared to pay the difference between the actual and adjusted cost of the 2:22 or Voyaguer camper programs, we invite you to donate an amount of your choice towards the difference between the adjusted and actual program costs. You can do this during the registration process after logging into or creating your account.

Your contribution towards the difference of actual and adjusted prices helps cover the actual operating costs of these two programs (Voyageur and 2:22) which provide unique wilderness experiences to HoneyRock high school campers. 


Here are several ways to make camp more affordable: 

Explore Financial Assistance & Scholarships

  1. Camper Matching Program 

    For Residential Camp and Advance Camp, HoneyRock will match what a camper honestly earns and contributes to their camper fee. More detailed information: Camper Matching Program

  2. Payment Plans

    New this year: All camper families will be enrolled in an automated monthly payment plan after registering for a summer 2025 camper program. Final payments will be processed on May 15th. 

  3. Camperships (Camper Scholarships)

    Further financial assistance is available to those who demonstrate a need through various camperships (camper scholarships). We have a specific campership fund for children of single mothers. Generous donors have given money to make HoneyRock possible for you and your family. Please, do not hesitate to apply for these funds.

  4. Support of Others

    Approximately 25% of our camper families receive funds from their grandparents, other relatives, or churches. Consider who can aid in sending your camper to camp this summer! More information can be found by following the link above "Expore Financial Assistance & Scholarships".
