EARLY BIRD DISCOUNT (save $30)
Early Bird discounts are given to those beat the rush. It only applicable to regular adult campers and is available for those who register AND pay in full ($895) by Dec 31st
NEW FRIEND DISCOUNT (save $30)
This discount is for bringing a new full-paying adult camper who has never been to Mendocino Folklore Camp before. The idea is to introduce camp to new people so they can see first-hand how awesome it is. The referrer will receive a $30 discount. They can choose to keep it for themselves or give it to another camper. The discount is the ONLY stackable discount. It can be reapplied for each new camper the referrer brings. Example: If John brings 3 new full-paying adult campers, he will receive a $90 discount on his fees.
The new camper must mention the referral in the "REFERRALS & GROUPS" section of the online registration form.

MULTI-CAMP DISCOUNT (save $50)
We understand how expensive it can be to attend one, let alone two camps. But since Folklore Camp is conveniently located on the calendar between Scandia Camp and Balkan Camp, we thought we would add a little incentive to those also wanting to attend Folklore Camp. We can offer a $50 discount on a full-week adult registration for those who attend a full week of Scandia or Balkan Camp (or Middle Eastern Camp).
GROUP DISCOUNT (save $50 each)
A "group" is any collection of 6 or more people that register and send in deposits ($200 each) by May 1st. Registrations must be submitted through a “group leader” that must be listed on the "REFERRALS & GROUPS" section of the online registration form. Group leaders must contact the registrar with a list of group members for discount to apply. Group lists cannot be altered after May 1st deadline.
