There is no better place on earth for campers to explore their Christian faith than at one of the three camps of Crossways Camping Ministries. Confirmation campers will experience all camp has to offer, engage in faith-filled conversations with their counselor and leave strengthened for service in their congregations, schools and communities. Campers, please contact your church to learn how to register for your pre-scheduled week.

In planning for Confirmation Camp, it is most beneficial if all youth from a congregation attend camp together. These benefits are lost when youth attend a Confirmation Camp apart from their own congregation. We discourage this except in rare circumstances. However, if that is necessary, you are responsible for making arrangements for your student to participate with another congregation's group during their week, and to notify us of which group that will be. Contact us if you need information on other churches attending during your week.

For similar reasons, each congregation should plan in advance to have an adult leader from your congregation present for the entire week. Preferably, that person would be the Pastor, AIM, Youth Director, or person responsible for confirmation instruction. Your presence (or absence) and participation is noticed by your students.

Please be aware that the earlier you submit your request, the more likely you are to receive your requested week. This will help us complete assignments of congregations to specific weeks so your plans can be finalized. If you prefer, you can call us at 920-882-0023, fax the information to 920-882-9474, or email us at registrar@crosswayscamps.org.

We take reservations on a first-come first-served basis. You will be assigned your first preference unless there is a significant indication that the site for the week you request will be overbooked. We will contact you to discuss options if we are unable to place you in your requested week. (We won't automatically place you in your alternate preference - we just use this information as a starting off point for discussing other options with you.)

• Discounts – We have two discounts that confirmation students can be eligible for. You are allowed to combine these two discounts if applicable to your registrations.
  

  • Early Registration Discount – All registrations received before March 15th, 2012 will receive a $30 discount.

  • ‘With One Check’ Discount – If your entire group’s registration is received with payment in full by ONE check or credit card, an additional $15 discount will apply to each registration. This applies only to group Confirmation Camp registrations. To be eligible for the discount, you must have all parents or supporting groups make their checks payable to your congregation and have the congregation send one check or credit card payment with the registrations. 

  With both discounts, the cost of Confirmation Camp is $350 in 2012. Your registrations must be received by March 15th and paid by one check to receive both discounts!

• A minimum of the $100 deposit is due at the time of registration. ALL registration fees (from church and/or parents) are due to Crossways by June 1, 2012. DO NOT WAIT TO BRING YOUR PAYMENT WITH YOU TO CAMP!
  

• We require a separate registration form signed by a parent for EVERY camper attending camp.  We cannot accept a list submitted by the church as source of registration. 
  
  We do provide a form for congregations to list campers registering that is used in addition to registration forms and helps clarify registrations and payments from the congregation. See information here.)
  

• Upon receipt and processing of registrations, the parents/guardian will receive an acknowledgment receipt and link to the medical form and camper checklist. If you would like a statement of who is registered from your congregation, please either call or email us. We will not automatically provide these.
  

• Cancellations - Cancellations are subject to our regular policy of holding the $100 non-refundable deposit as cancellation fee.  Please make sure your parents are aware of the non-refundable deposit if they are paying the deposit.  If cancellation is due to a verified medical condition or funeral attendance, only a $25.00 handling fee is charged. We require congregations to notify us of any cancellations from their congregations.  Remaining moneys due will be refunded per the church's direction. Please advise parents there is NO proration for their child only attending part of a week. There is NO refund for campers canceling less than 2 weeks before their scheduled week of camp.
