Before you register, please take a minute to learn some more information about the registration process.
TIERED PRICING
At Camp Neringa, we’re committed to making camp accessible to as many families as possible while keeping costs low. To support this mission, we offer a tiered pricing system:
- Base Rate
Covers the basic costs of camping at Neringa, food, supplies and counselors, but doesn’t cover the many other costs of maintaining Neringa year-round. This is the minimum amount required to camp at Neringa. - True Cost of Camp
Covers the basic costs of camping at Neringa and year-round operational costs, like administrative salaries, repairs, fees and infrastructure improvements. - Sustaining
Covers the basic and year-round operational costs of Neringa, and provides extra funds for scholarships to campers and to grow our endowment fund to sustain Neringa for future generations.
Based on the above information you may choose the option that is most suitable for your family. The intent is to provide flexibility to our community, while finding new ways to support Neringa’s operations long term.
Families can choose the rate that best suits their situation, knowing that every camper will enjoy the same fantastic Neringa experience.
Financial Support
As always, our commitment to accessibility remains unwavering, and we will continue to provide scholarships for campers whose families may face financial obstacles. Please do not let finances deter anyone from attending Neringa! Financial assistance (big or small) is available from various foundations, including The Blessed George Matulaitis Fund, The Adamski Family Foundation, Lithuanian Knights/Vyčiai and others. Fill out your request with the registration package. The financial aid request deadline is April 1st. Decisions announced by April 15th. Questions? Please contact: dana@neringa.org
UNDERSTANDING THE WAITING LIST PROCESS FOR CAMP NERINGA
Neringa’s summer camps are in high demand, and some sessions fill up quickly. If a session is close to reaching capacity, you may be placed on a waiting list even if spots are still available.
This is because we reserve about 30% of spots in each session to ensure a balance of campers across all cabins. The waitlist is processed on a first-come, first-served basis.
Please know that while being placed on the waiting list may seem concerning, we are typically able to accommodate most, if not all, campers who register. However, if a session does become fully booked, being on the waitlist could mean a longer wait for a spot.
To stay informed about your status, please check your email frequently. All waitlist updates will be sent to the email address you’ve registered with in UltraCamp.
Important: If you are registering for the two-week session (LT Week 1 & 2), please do not sign up for the individual week-long sessions unless you plan to attend only one week. Registering separately for both weeks does not increase your chances of admission and could result in additional registration fees.
REGISTRATION FUNCTIONALITY
The UltraCamp registration software is best experienced on a desktop. While mobile registration is possible, it is not fully optimized for mobile devices and may display differently or have limited functionality.
