Summer Camp 2025
We can’t wait to see you at Ewalu!
New This Year - Tiered Pricing
Camp families have differing abilities to pay for an experience at Ewalu. Since you know your family’s financial situation better than we do, we’re introducing a voluntary three-tier pricing structure in which you self-select the rate you can afford!
Please consider selecting the highest level you can afford, knowing that, in doing so, you are enabling others to participate as well – and all campers benefit from greater diversity at camp.
Tier 1: Most closely reflects the “true cost” of camp. (Usually $100 more than Tier 2)
Tier 2: Standard rate from years past, partially subsidized. (Usually $100 more than Tier 3)
Tier 3: Most subsidized rate, for families needing more support to make camp affordable.
PLEASE REMEMBER: All campers receive the same high-quality camp experience regardless of the payment tier chosen. Your selection is completely confidential.
You’ll find the Tiered Pricing for each camp in the program descriptions and in the Online Registration portal. Click here to see a short video of Frank Johnson, executive director, explaining Tiered Pricing.
Register by February 28 so you can snag our best Early Discount, too (details in tab below). We’ve retired the Sibling Discount, but If you are registering more than one camper, you can “mix and match” at different tiers or use the same tier. It’s up to you!
Questions? Contact our office at 563-933-4700 or email office@ewalu.org.
Summer Camp Discounts
We have received a generous gift to help more kids experience a life-changing week at summer camp. For the summer of 2025, Ewalu is offering a FREE WEEK OF CAMP to 100 campers who have never experienced summer camp at Ewalu before (on a first-come, first-served basis). In future years, the same gift will help reduce the price of summer camp for all campers with a special emphasis on families with financial need.
Please sign up at www.ewalu.org/Free-Camp to claim the offer, and wait to receive an email from Ewalu.org before registering your child for camp.
NOTE: This particular offer to campers who have NOT been to Ewalu before and have not yet registered, due to the timing of the funds this year. However, if you have already registered, or if your camper has been to Ewalu before and you need financial assistance, we can help! You need to contact the office at office@ewalu.org, ask for a Campership form to be emailed to you and fill out the form with a request for funds needed (we have a separate fund to help). The free camp offer is for NEW campers only who have not started a registration.
A “campership” is a camp scholarship that Ewalu offers for families that need extra financial assistance in order to experience camp. Remember, no child is ever turned away at Ewalu for reasons of financial need. Generous donations from Ewalu supporters bring the true cost of a week at camp (over $800) down for every camper already. On top of that, we have reserved funds at Ewalu to make sure camp is possible for all families, no matter what you can afford to pay. Call Diane at Ewalu for more information about camperships at 563-933-4700. We want all kids to experience the faith-building environment at Ewalu!

THIS YEAR’S THEME:
God’s Word Comes Near
THEME VERSE:
“The word is near you, on your lips
and in your heart.” — Romans 10:8
Each story, and every part of our lives, is shaped by words—spoken, heard, and read. The greatest story, though, is that of God’s salvation for all of creation. God’s Word came alive in Jesus Christ, the Savior. We read God’s word in scripture. The many ways we understand “Word” are at the heart of the theme for the week, as we emphasize the importance of God’s word that comes near.
