Cost to Attend
Costs to attend are per person, all-inclusive of all classes and activities, overnight lodging (or site-use fee for commuters), and meals.
Cost is based on how many roommates you'll have. If you don't know who you want to room with, you can email us later - just type in "tell you later" or "assign one for me."
If there's info we need to know in order to assign a good room for you, email or call us.
Participants will stay in Wright Hall, Creevey Complex or Ballard Hall. We do our best to accommodate needs and preferences but cannot guarantee a request. Some single occupancy rooms will have a shared bathroom. Triple and Double occupancy rooms have bathrooms either in the room or right next to the room.
When a registration option fills up, the "Join waitlist" will show as an option. Joining the waitlist will NOT secure you a spot for the retreat. If you wish to secure a spot in the retreat, choose a different occupancy room type and complete the registration - in the roommate request you can indicate you would like a single if one becomes available.
Please note, we will ask participants to take an at-home covid test no more than 24 hours prior to arriving at Menucha.
Single Occupancy | $1400 |
Double Occupancy | $990 |
Triple Occupancy | $860 |
Commuter | $635 |
Lunch-only Commuter | $535 |

You can read the terms and conditions of the Purchase Protection (which is not administered by Menucha) here. This is an additional cost (8.5% of total cost) and is not administered by Menucha.
