Registration Fees
The cost to attend is your choice of registration fee of either $150 or $300. Camp Wellstone believes in training everyone, regardless of income – so while the true cost of Camp Wellstone is actually greater than $300, they strive to keep their trainings affordable for progressive leaders at all income levels – and they look to you to decide what’s fair, based on your personal circumstances. If you cannot pay either of these fees, please contact Mysti, to discuss scholarship options. No matter the level you choose, the benefits are the same (training, customized materials, one of our books, and 3 meals during the weekend).
