Invite a handful of friends to do all the junk they would do at the $200 camp for the cost of two loaves of bread, kool-aid and lunch meat. Share idea with invited children's mothers to "host" the next "camp" to take up whole summer...One a week. * Masquerade ball. Admission 1 bag of chips or 1 bottle 2-liter soda. Mom buys 2 bags of ice. Girls' cost-clean up. * Theatrical production. Have them write a script and cast the play and produce it. They will learn to put on an "A" show for a "W" budget.
