These costs are to be calculated
according to how many weeks or days you want to have the workshop and how many boats
the kids will build. The number of kids participating will determine how
many boats will be built.
Example A:
A one week academic workshop with 9 kids
building one paddleboat costs:
1 week x $950 instructional fee =
$950
1 paddle boat materials fee = $450
TOTAL WORKSHOP FEE = $1400
To calculate the cost per participant, divide the total by the # of
participants: $1400 / 9 = $156 per child for a one week workshop.
Example B:
A two week academic workshop with 15 kids
building two sailboats costs:
2 weeks x $950 instructional fee = $1900
2 sailboats materials fee = $1500
TOTAL WORKSHOP FEE = $3400
To calculate the cost per participant, divide the total by the # of
participants: $3400 / 15 = $227 per child for a two week workshop. |
