Fees for New Culture Summer Camp
The Summer Camp registration fee is on a sliding scale from $825 to $1495, with early pricing of $795-1395 if you register by June 1. This fee includes tenting, all meals, and all program activities. The low end of the scale represents our basic cost while the top end is still lower than other comparable events. Any money received above and beyond our basic cost will go towards a scholarship fund for lower income individuals and the improvement of this and future Summer Camps. We ask you to pay as high on the scale as you can reasonably afford.
We want to offer the opportunity for as many people as possible to attend New Culture Summer Camp East. For those in financial need, we can make work trade and/or scholarship arrangements. Most work trade is available before and just after camp – the work is usually done in the Washington DC area or at our site in West Virginia, and can sometimes be done in your home area as well. We are also open to barter arrangements. Please get in touch with us – if you want to be there, we want you there! Let’s figure out what works for you!
Part of building a New Culture includes working against existing systemic barriers and creating more equity and accessibility. To support our goal of welcoming all people to Summer Camp, we especially encourage campers who are BIPoC, trans, LGBQ+, disabled, or hold other marginalized identities to apply for scholarship.

Indoor Accommodations
Tenting is included in the camp registration fee, and you can upgrade to an indoor sleeping space for an additional fee.
The indoor spaces at our venue include a large common house, a smaller house, and a number of rustic cabins, furnished with twin-size upper and lower bunk beds, full-size futon beds, and queen-size beds. Some of the cabins also have small lofts that contain a queen mattress and/or twin mattresses side-by-side. Some cabins have electricity, while others do not; none of the cabins have indoor toilets.
In addition there is a motel located 3 miles up the road — rooms in the motel have two queen-sized beds and private bathrooms. If you wish to rent a motel room for Summer Camp please contact them directly at 304-825-3555 or reservations@mountaineer-motel.com.
If you have special needs that necessitate an indoor space but cannot afford the additional cost, please contact us ASAP at info@cfnc.us; we have some scholarship funds available for this purpose.
Read more about our indoor lodging spaces on the venue’s website.
Pre-Camp and Post-Camp
We’re offering two opportunities for extending your New Culture Summer Camp experience: Pre-Camp, Tuesday 7/22 to Thursday 7/24; and Post-Camp, Sunday 8/3 to Tuesday 8/5.
Join us as we build our community energy and create the community’s infrastructure; stay with us to release the energy that we created and restore the site. We have two three-hour “work”-shop periods each day, plus play time in the afternoons and intimacy/community-building activities in the evenings, building New Culture through shared work and celebration.
Children’s Program
To create a New Culture, it is important to include humans in all their diversity, including our youngest members as well.
If there is enough interest and support, we may offer a cooperative children’s program for the young (and young at heart!). Please contact us right away at info@cfnc.us if you and your children are interested in participating. Include number of children, ages, and how long they would be at camp.
Additional Information
A confirmation packet, including contact information, emergency phone numbers, map with directions, and any last-minute news will be emailed to all registrants on or before the 18th of July.
Updates and new information about camp will be posted on our Facebook Event page. Feel free to post about carpools on the Facebook page!
