Applegate summer-camp pilot deemed successful but ran a deficit; partnership seeks scholarships
Summary
Applegate Partnership said its 2025 Applegate Outdoor Summer Camp pilot at Cantrell Buckley Park was well received by parents but operated at a loss; the nonprofit plans to hold the camp again with higher fees and solicited donations for scholarships.
Janelle Dunleavy told the commissioners the Applegate Outdoor Summer Camp pilot was successful from a participation and community perspective but ran a financial deficit. "We were upside down in it. So we had to raise the prices this year, and we've been, soliciting donations to help with some scholarships to to help fund some of the kids that are in attending the, programs," she said.
Dunleavy said the camp provided a scarce summer opportunity in the Applegate and used Cantrell Buckley Park as a convenient day-program site. The partnership plans to run the camp again, will charge higher fees to reduce the deficit and will continue to solicit donations to support scholarships for families that need help.
