For Churches
One of my goals has always been to provide a ministry that is affordable for every church & group, no matter their size. To accomplish this, my pricing for programs & workshops is always based upon the average attendance of the congregation. The bigger you are, the more I ask--the smaller you are, the less I ask. This pricing policy, plus lots of flexibility on my side (taking each situation on an individual basis), makes both Waldo the Clown & Professor Steve something that every church can utilize.
For Camps & Other Groups
As previously stated, I usually go by average church attendance when it comes to pricing. But what about camps where there is no "average attendance" to go by, or groups that are in the church but not part of the church (schools, clown ministries, daycare, etc.)? I will work with your situation, funds, & needs to come up with a price that works for everyone. I will bend over backwards to help you get Waldo or Professor Steve to your church.
Additional Costs
In addition to the cost of the programs or workshops, there is also a mileage or travel expense. For programs within driving distance, I charge .30 per mile round trip. For programs where air travel is involved, you would pay the costs to fly me in (usually very affordable, even for small groups). Also, everyone is responsible for any housing costs, should that need arise.
Now for the free stuff. I provide you with some beautiful promotional materials. Posters, clip art, activity pages, & pictures are yours to use to help generate excitement about Waldo's or Professor Steve's time with you. For workshops, I provide any supplies needed. I also carry a complete sound system with me, so regardless of where you put me, everyone will be able to hear (even people in the cheap seats).
