CAN I GET A DISCOUNT?
We offer special early-bird pricing until June 1st. The early-bird price for 2022 is $289.
Family discounts are offered for siblings from the same household. Every additional camper coming from the same household receives $20 off their registration price (ie. one $20 discount for 2 campers).
We never want to turn someone away from attending camp because of financial reasons. If cost is an issue for you please reach out to us directly via email.

For daily camp activities you will need to bring: instruments (keyboard and drums provided), extra strings (guitar, bass, etc.), drum sticks (drummers), and AUX compatible earbuds to be used with in-ear monitors.

CAN I BRING MY PHONE?
Short answer: yes. However, we have a strict "Unplugged" policy. This means that phones may only be used during designated times during the day. If a camper is using their phone during a non-designated time, the phone will be immediately turned over to the camper's counselor and held until the end of the day.

WILL THE FOOD BE GOOD?
Definitely! All meals (breakfast, lunch, and dinner) are included in your registration cost and will include a variety of home-cooked meals and catered meals (ie. PIZZA!).
I HAVE FOOD ALLERGIES. WILL I HAVE SOMETHING TO EAT?
Absolutely. We try to have at least one entrée alternative that would accommodate individuals with specific dietary restrictions (ie. diabetic, soy/dairy intolerance, allergies, vegetarian/vegan, etc.). You will have an opportunity to note these dietary needs on your registration form, and we encourage you to send us a follow up email with any meal ideas you would like to suggest!
CAN I CHOOSE MY ROOMATE(S)?
If you have a friend coming to NEWC that you'd like to room with, send us an email! We cannot guarantee all requests will be met, but will do our best to accommodate!
WHAT IF I DON'T PLAY AN INSTRUMENT?
You can still come to NEWC! We offer workshops for beginners in a variety of instruments including guitar, keyboard, bass, drums, and vocals. Don't consider yourself musical? We also offer sound workshops!
WILL THERE BE FUN ACTIVITIES?
Absolutely! Even though we're a worship camp, we're not diving into deep spiritual encounters every moment of every day. We've done a really great job at creating a schedule that prioritizes worship training AND encounters with the Lord AND having a good time. So expect evening activities, group competitions, free time, games, and naturally--fun that just comes from being around some great people!
WHERE IS NEWC LOCATED?
NEWC 2022 will be located at Elim Bible Institute and College (EBIC), located in Lima, New York.
In previous years, NEWC has been hosted by New Hope Fellowship in Bloomfield, New York, which required the need for host families and transportation. This year we are excited to have camp at EBIC which will allow us to be at ONE central location for the entirety of camp. This eliminates the need for transport, host families, and also gives us more time to spend together vs. commuting!
