Weekend Details and FAQs
How much does the weekend cost?
The total cost for the weekend is mostly dependent upon the number of people in your party as well as your preference in housing. There are a variety of housing options, ranging in price. In addition, some housing choices do not include linens (bed sheets, washcloths and towels). You are welcome to bring your own, or linens can be rented for an additional $16.25 for a twin bed or $21.30 for a double bed.
Meal costs may vary, depending on the age of your family members and whether anyone in your family has dietary restrictions. Please note that vegan and gluten-free food options cost an additional $4.55 per meal, for a total weekend additional food cost of $36.40 per person. Meal prices are per person for the entire weekend (eight meals), which includes Friday dinner through Monday breakfast.
Facility and camp fees, which are set by LDWFC, also apply and are based upon the size of your group. Camp fees for first time registrants are waived. See below for the 2024 fee schedule.

How safe is LDWFC for children?
