Cost and Registration
For the April retreat, all rooms are in the Camp Lodge. There are private rooms and shared rooms available, with either a queen bed or two twin beds. The day rate allows locals to commute from home or stay with friends on the North Shore. The day rate is also available to visitors who rent a room nearby.
Writers check in Monday afternoon, checking out Sunday by noon. All meals are included in the rates for attendees staying at the Camp. Day rates are available for those who do not wish lodging. (Individual meals for guests can be arranged.)

Cancellation Policy
All cancellation requests must be made in writing - no exceptions. Because the retreat sells out each year, and because it is hard to fill slots at the last minute, we do stick to a strict cancellation policy:
--If you cancel before March 21, you will receive a full refund minus a $150 administration fee.
--If you cancel between March 21 and April 7, you will receive a refund of 50 percent.
--If you cancel after April 7, there is no refund, but Connie will work with full enrollees to provide two to three hours hours of private instruction or coaching.
--if you registered for Saturday only, the low ticket price is actually less than our administrative costs. But we will refund 50 percent of the fee for those who cancel before April 7.
Lots of information about Camp Mokulē‘ia is available on the Camp's website.
For participants, we can provide an FAQ about the stunning location on O‘ahu's North Shore as well as some travel advice. However, we have our hands full, so we cannot be personal travel agents. Please avail yourselves of a good guidebook or the site of the O‘ahu Visitors Bureau.
Please write Connie (constancehaleretreats@gmail.com) for information or to get on our mailing list.
As we say in Hawai‘i, a hui hou! (See you soon!)
