Mr. Lund said his organization had previously used a tiered-pricing system to make membership, swimming lessons and gym activities accessible to more families. Of 47 families already registered for camp this summer, he said, 16 elected to pay the highest tuition, 14 the middle, and 17 the lowest.

“Our philosophy is we fundamentally trust people,” he said. “We’d rather treat 99 percent of our camp families with respect and get beat by 1 percent than treat them all like we don’t trust them.”
