Through our Campership Program, the Bar 717 Ranch seeks to offer tuition assistance to campers who otherwise could not afford a session at camp. Campers can apply for a Campership for any session, except Family Camp. A child is eligible for Campership funds for multiple years, but must reapply for this program each year to be considered along with other applicants.

To be considered for the Campership Program, please read our Campership Program Information Packet and submit a Campership Application. If you would like any assistance completing the application, please contact us.

The deadline for Campership applications was February 1, 2024. We are still accepting applications at this time and will grant additional Camperships if funding is available.
