Financial Aid
We believe that every camper, regardless of financial circumstances, should have the opportunity to experience camp. While the cost to maintain camp continues to rise, we understand that families have differing abilities to meet summer camp costs. For this reason, we use tiered pricing. Tier One closely reflects the full cost of camp, including staff expenses, property maintenance, food, and program supplies. Tier Two is a partially subsidized cost of camp, for families that can pay a little more, but not the full cost of camp. Tier Three is heavily subsidized through grants, the generosity of donors, and through participation in product programs. Choose the tier that works best for you and your family. Fee choice is on the honor system and no financial documentation is required. All campers will have the same experience regardless of the tier chosen, and camp staff will have no knowledge of which tier their campers have selected.

Financial assistance can be requested by visiting gsoh.org/camp and clicking on the tab for Financial Assistance. Requests are processed on a first-come, first-served basis. We try to support as many campers as possible through our Financial Assistance program and therefore may not always be able to honor your full request amount. A $50 deposit is required to reserve your space at camp. Financial assistance cannot be used to cover this deposit. Once your space is secured, you can make payments at your own pace from the time of registration until June 1 in your MyGS Account.

Bus Transportation
Hop on a bus ride to camp that’s fun for campers and easy for parents/caregivers! Camp counselors supervise the bus ride, lead road trip games, and sing songs with the campers as they make their way to camp! Your camper can catch the bus in Sunbury or Columbus. Exact bus stop locations and times are included in the Summer Camp Success Guide, which can be found at gsoh.org/camp. The bus fee is $50 for all bus stops. Pre-registration is required. Bus fees are paid at the time of registration.
