That may well be the case, but trying to sell a $45.00 to a youth member who is used to paying about half that amount is going to be very tough.
And you have to add on the cost of transportation.
Ship 777 just attended the Sea Scout Training Weekend

The cost was only $35.00. In fact we stayed at Thurmont Scout Building and only paid $27.00 per person.
It is going to be a shame if this event fails because of the cost.

The Cost was set by the Camp and Quest Organizers. It is line with what has been charged in the Past when Region Held Quest and Area 4 Hosted it all the time.
