North Shore’s No Tipping Policy + Counselor Bonuses:
- Compensating the staff should be OUR job – Not yours!
- Tipping is uncomfortable for both parents and staff.
- Did you give enough? Did you give too much?
- Tips can add up to $400 or more to the cost of your child’s summer at camp.
- End of the summer tips do not positively affect the course of your child’s summer – while it is in progress!
We have a better way:
- We set aside a $150 to $750 bonus for every counselor above their salaries – so essentially your tips are “on us”!
- We ask you to send us a confidential evaluation on our staff during the summer, which ensures that we have on-going feedback on how you think our staff is doing.
- What you say and what we see will be used to give regular in-camp evaluations & performance cash bonuses to our staff during the summer!
There are no extra costs or hidden fees beyond payment for the session you choose!
However, we do offer add-ons in the form of our popular “Camp Within A Camp” program for specialized sports & creative activities. Additionally we offer private swim and tennis lessons after camp.
