Jack McKay Endowment

The Jack McKay Endowment was established during the 60th year of Folk Dance Camp by Dr. Steven Turner. The amount has gradually grown to over $300,000. A donation to this fund helps guarantee the financial stability of Folk Dance Camp. Your support will help with the continuation of live music and with the high quality of instructors brought to Stockton every year, and defray the costs of the specialty banquets. Any gift, large or small, will be greatly appreciated.

Scholarship Fund

The Scholarship fund provides help to dancers who otherwise could not afford to come to Camp.  Scholarship recipients are expected to perform a job at Camp.  A donation to this fund helps send a deserving dancer to Camp and helps provide the extra man/womanpower that helps Camp run smoothly.

In addition to the general Camp Scholarship Fund, there are specific scholarships in honor of Bruce Mitchell and Bora Gajicki. When making a donation, simply indicate if you would like the funds to go into a particular account.
