Tier Pricing System Explained
The Tier System allows us to continue to offer our amazing summer camp programs while letting everyone know the true cost of camp.
The average cost of camp in Ontario is $1300 per week. Expenses for a camper to attend a single week of camp at Pearce Williams are well over $1000 when all is taken into account. We keep our fees for camp families significantly lower than the provinical average by subsidizing them through donations and rental income.
Based on the above information you may choose the tier that is most suitable for your family.
​
-
Tier I provides significantly subsidized fees compared to the true cost of camp.
-
Tier II offers more subsidization of our fees for those who need to pay a little less.
-
Tier III offers the lowest fees available for camp, making our programming as accessible to families in need as we possibly can.
THIS PROGRAM IS VOLUNTARY AND IN NO WAY INFLUENCES THE EXPERIENCE CHILDREN RECEIVE. It offers the opportunity for families to take an active role in supporting the true cost of their child’s camp experience. Only the office staff know what tier you have selected, and that information is used only for billing purposes.
Payment Plans
This season, we’re excited to offer a FLEXIBLE MONTHLY INSTALLMENT PLAN, making camp more accessible for all families. Here's how it works: payments are automatically scheduled for the 20th of each month leading up to camp. It’s a simple way to spread out the cost, ensuring your camper can enjoy their summer without the financial strain hitting all at once.
​
However, we understand that every family’s situation is different. If the preset dates don’t fit your budget, don’t worry. Reach out to our main office, and we’ll gladly adjust the payment schedule to better suit your needs—whether that’s moving to different monthly dates or even switching to a bi-weekly plan.
​
We know camp can be costly, but our goal is to make it work for you, so your camper can have their best summer yet.

We believe every child deserves the opportunity to experience camp. If you cannot afford Tier III pricing, we offer scholarships to help make camp accessible.
