Please Note In no way does this reflect our hidden feelings of inadequacy.

We often get fun and exciting questions and thoughts about camp tuition. Plus, with the rising costs of childcare in general, Trackers Earth has decided to offer a camp that is Cheaper-Than-a-Babysitter!

Break it Down

The average cost of a relatively experienced babysitter in Portland, Oregon is currently $14 an hour (which they duly earn). Let's look at the math. Trackers Summer Camp hours are 7:30 AM - 4:00 PM.

Compare to many other camp hours that often run 9 AM - 3 PM (nevermind, we're talking about babysitting)

That comes out to a total of 8.5 available hours. If we calculate our rates at $13.99 (cheaper than the babysitter's $14) that puts our potential 5-day-a-week Summer Camp at $594. Nevertheless, our basic day camp is actually $349 per week—a tuition averaging $8.20 per hour.

All this for a program where kids go outside to truly wild spaces, learn old school outdoor skills, and are guided by experienced outdoor educators. Not to mention Overnight Camp averages $4.10 an hour...

Wait, what? Wait a minute!!! Hold on...

Introducing Trackers Baby Sitting!!!

With programs starting at $14 an hour.
