Description
Our camp fee covers the logistics, equipment, storage, and administrative tools necessary to build the best playground on the playa as our gift to the Burning Man community. It requires upfront, ongoing, and known unknown costs to make this happen. In each cycle, unexpected events take place, and we make mistakes.
As most everyone knows by now, our cost structure does not account for a buffer that covered costs such as the pandemic shutdown. We anticipate that this years camp fee will, provided nothing unexpected happens, cover all existing camp operating costs as well as debt.
Standard camp fee will be $420, low income camp fee is $2225 (and must be accompanied by a copy of your low income ticket acceptance form the Borg).
The fee schedule is as follows:
On July 29, 2024 the standard camp fee will be raised to $475 and the low income camp fee will be raised to $250. Please keep your ticket status up-to-date. Doing this helps tremendously with planning and ensures we do not over subscribe the camp.
It is important to understand we have already begun spending money towards the camp this year. This money has been spent through the camp credit card that must be paid off as we proceed. So if we are to succeed at this massive project we collaboratively undertake everyone must do their best to cover the costs in a timely fashion.
Please note: this transaction carries a $6.00 through the bank. This has been added to the total for the low income camp fee.
