Financial Aid
We deeply believe in the value of camp – time spent away from home is a unique opportunity to expand one’s horizons, unplug, learn new and exciting skills, and make long-lasting friendships. We also recognize that the full cost of attending camp may be beyond the reach of some families.
To help make camp more accessible, we offer Camp Scholarships (“Camperships”) each summer to families who would not otherwise be able to afford the full cost of a session of Camp Twin Creeks.
How Camperships are Awarded
Camperships are awarded based on financial need, camper program fit, and availability of funds.
A child’s summer camp experience includes new friendships, fun, challenges, and personal growth. We hear from parents consistently that their child returned home with a deepened sense of responsibility for oneself, others, and the environment. There is no better feeling than making that experience a reality, and we look forward to reviewing your Campership Application.
Over the past five years, we have awarded over $500,000 in camperships to hundreds of campers!

Campership & Financial Aid FAQs
Do I qualify for a Campership?
We evaluate all campership applications based on the information provided and take into consideration household income, family size, and other extenuating circumstances. If you’re not sure, we encourage you to apply!
What is the income cut off for a Campership?
We do not have strict income cutoffs for camperships. We evaluate a variety of factors, including income and family size. Because we offer camperships ranging from 10% of tuition to 90% of tuition, our Campership Families have a wide range of incomes. Typically, household incomes range from $75,000 to $200,000.
What size of Camperships are awarded?
Camp Twin Creeks only offers partial Camperships, but the size of grant can vary from 10% of tuition to 90% depending on the availability of funds and the information provided in the application. All families are required to contribute a portion of the tuition.
Can I receive a Campership more than one time?
Yes! We love welcoming back returning Campership families year after year 🙂
What is the deadline to submit my application?
The deadline for applications is May 1, 2025. Applications received after this date will only be considered if there is additional funding available.

Yes! All campers are welcome to Camp Twin Creeks and treated the same, regardless of campership status. Neither the child’s counselor nor their cabinmates will know who received a campership.
