"Trails to Sea was a great experience for Alethia. She came home with a zest for camping and backpacking and as a result the whole family has gone on our first family camping trip. Susie was a great leader, I felt confident that my daughter was in safe hands, both physically and emotionally. Thank you for providing a wonderful first summer camp away from home."

Course Tuition and Sliding Scale Options
Chrysalis Girls Adventures offers a sliding scale fee structure to make our courses more accessible to all communities. Once a student’s spot on course is confirmed, families are asked to self-assess their circumstances and pay as they are able. Proof of income is not required and payments can be made in 1-3 installments. Course tuition is subsidized by donations. If the minimum payment option is a barrier to participation, additional scholarships may be available.
​
Sliding Scale Fee Options:
Option 1: $630
Option 2: $1260
Option 3: $1890*
Option 4: Request a fee waiver (available on a limited and case-by-case basis)
​​
*Option 3 is the per-person cost for Chrysalis Girls Adventures to run this course.
