Sources: Former campers, parents, board members, community supporters.
4,352
Registrations (Gross) Our primary revenue source!

This is what families paid to register their children for camp.

Before refunds and scholarships.

This represents 98.6% of all our income!
749,620
Registration Refunds What this is:
Money we returned to families who canceled.

Shows as negative (reduces our income).

This is normal - families' plans change!
(19,455)
Scholarships What this is:
Financial aid we provided to families who couldn't afford full price.

Shows as negative because we didn't collect this money (we gave a discount).

Important: This isn't cash we paid OUT - it's money we didn't collect.

Example: Family owes $5,000, we gave $1,000 scholarship, they paid $4,000.

OTHER INCOME
Dividend Income Cash from our investments

Unrealized Gain/Loss Investment value increased!

Our investments grew by $20,223 in value.

"Unrealized" = We haven't sold them yet.

Think of it like your house value going up:
• You're wealthier on paper
• But you don't have cash until you sell

Same with investments - this is a "paper gain" until we sell.
20,223
Total Other Income 31,542
OTHER EXPENSES
Depreciation ⭐ This is a NON-CASH expense!

What is depreciation?
When we buy expensive items (buildings, equipment), we spread the cost over many years instead of expensing it all at once.

Example:
• Bought building for $500,000
• Expected to last 25 years
• We expense $20,000/year (depreciation)

KEY POINT: No money actually leaves our account for this! It's just accounting.
