    Yeah, even by camp standards, we were essentially, or sometimes literally, charging people nothing so their parents could find work in the province and start adapting to the place before going to school. I recall jogging by a sign for an 'affordable' camp in college that had its own soccer fields and pool, yet were charging more per week than we'd charge for a whole season.

    But we were geared to low income/refugee families. I think we had like 10-15 languages spoken at camp. It's where I started to learn russian and mandarin. :lenin-pensive: :mao-clap:

    Though I will say, our camp wasn't in Toronto. We had a fair amount of ontarian counsellors shocked at how little we charged and what we could do with it all.
