Cost Sharing / Camp Fees

Our camp cost sharing this year will be $650 per camper.

This covers the cost of dinner every day, drinking water, waste water disposal, showers, porto potties in camp, power to camp and tents, infrastructure, shade structures, frontage and our gift to Playa – the Kostume Experience. We are not collecting separately for tent shade. We are additionally offering a subsidized cost share price for those in need.

If you wish to bring an RV or camper van, there will be an additional cost of $2300 per RV (for unlimited 24/7 power supply from the camp power grid, 3 RV tank water fills and 3 RV gray water pumpouts during Burn Week).

Payment Options – NO FEE

  • Zelle / QuickPay – send to kostumekultfinance@gmail.com
  • Venmo – send to @kostume-kult (make sure ‘Turn on for purchases’ is NOT selected to avoid fees)
  • Cash or check (made out to Costume Cultural Society Inc. ) – give to one of the camp leads at any in-person meeting

We reserve the right to ask for additional payment if there is a discrepancy in the amount we receive into our accounts.

Payment Options – WITH FEE

For our international campers, or in case you have no other choice but to use a credit card: the no-fee options mentioned above may not be available. If you know of another convenient option to transfer money without fees internationally, please let us know and we’ll try to accommodate it.

Please understand that it is often hard to predict exactly how much the fees and other transaction charges might add up to. We reserve the right to ask for additional payment if there is a discrepancy in the amount we receive into our accounts.

Below are several options to pay from abroad, or if you have to use a credit card. Keep in mind that PayPal charges a percentage fee, so if you are paying larger amounts (e.g. an RV fee) it might be better to use a wire transfer. For smaller amounts PayPal is probably a better option.

  • Wire transfer – Please email Marianna for specific instructions.  You will need to make sure that funds are sent in US dollar amounts, as well as add a $15 fee for every transaction (this is the fee that we are charged for receiving a wire transfer). Your own bank might also charge you an additional fee for sending the wire transfer.
  • PayPal Payment (using credit card or bank account) – this includes a roughly 3.9% fee as that as that is the amount that PayPal will deduct for most international payments.
