90$ a day? that's steep....a lot of people are losing their jobs and probably can't afford that

I always thought it would be cool if someone would offer DJing services for free for an after school program to get kids off the streets and doing something fun! Plus the publicity would be wicked.

$90/5 hours = $18/hour.

At $380 for students who register for the entire week, it works out to $15.20/hour.

That includes a homecooked, organic lunch each and every day.

If I charged anything less I wouldn't be much more than a glorified babysitter - and taking into considering that my usual rate is $35/hour for single lessons, this is a pretty fair deal.

I'm working on the non-profit end of things as well, as it's always been part of my plan for this school. But until I can obtain some sort of funding to help sustain that end of things, I do still have to eat and pay the bills.

Make sense?

Very pleased to see things are going well for you.

I rarely, if ever, get congratulated for my exposure. Usually it's just "put that back in your pants!!!!" or some shit like that.

It's a pretty normal price for day camp. Parents don't mind paying that to keep their youth out of the shopping malls, loitering here and there, and keeping them out of trouble.

My guess is because its a camp for March break (ie. High School/Elementary holiday) so he is trying to promote it for that demographic.
