At the Cape u pay 50 bucks a week and no food from house parents, u are on your own.
Think you should qualify your statement ... it depends on the (1) team and (2) the host family. Our son paid $55 a week "rent" but his family took care of all his food. They offered to take care of his laundry, etc., but he elected to do his own. They loaned him a car ... of course, he coordinated the usage with their needs. And his final few weeks ... he lived "rent free" as their gift to him.
Other players, even on the same team, were not as fortunate and had to pay extra $$ to their host family if they wanted to "share" family food.
It all depends, I guess, but our son was fortunate, as were many of his teammates, to have host families who truly "hosted" them while they were there.
