Information needed to complete your registration


Step 1: Health History

You will complete your camper’s health form online.*  The following information is required to complete the online registration. 
  • The date of your camper’s last tetanus booster
  • The name and phone number of your camper’s doctor and dentist
  • Your campers health insurance or Medicaid information 

*Please Note:  If registering a returning camper from summer 2011, your camper’s health history is complete. You should update changes in health, medicines and doctor's contact info. You will be required to verify accuracy of the information with a drop down "yes" and your name.
   

Step 2: Cabin Mate Requests  (Not-applicable to Day Camps)

These policies have not changed since last year, but will continue to be enforced.  The following conditions must be met to honor any cabin mate request:
  • Both campers must be registered for the same camp program and same age group, during the same week
  • Both campers must request each other (groups of three or more cannot request each other).  If a “triangle” has been requested, none of the campers' requests will be honored.

Step 3: Church Name and District

All North Georgia Conference United Methodist Church members will need to have the following information to complete the registration:
  • Church Name
  • Church District
During the registration process you will see a drop-down list of all North Georgia United Methodist Churches.  However, the church names are listed by the District in which they are located.  To find out which district your United Methodist Church is in, go to the North Georgia Conference Website through this link, http://www.ngumc.org/districts/

Step 4: Payment Information

This online system accepts Visa, Mastercard and Discover. You will be required to make the minimum deposit in order to be registered for camp. Until the deposit is made, your camper will not hold a spot during your selected week.  If you register after May 1st, full payment is required at the time of registration. 

  • $50 for Day Camps
  • $100 for Mini Camps - Village, Outpost and Sparrowwood
  • $100 for Village one-week camps
  • $100 for Sparrowwood one-week camps
  • $100 for Adventure Outpost one-week camps
  • $250 for Village two-week camps
  • $250 for ELP program


Payment Plan: If you would like to pay through an automatic payment plan, please answer "yes" on the camper profile page during online registration.  Once we have received your completed registration, we will set-up your payment plan to charge your credit card over an equal time period until the final payment is due on May 1st.* 
*Please Note:  All balances are due in full by May 1, 2012.

Late Arrival or Early Departure
All of our camps start on Sunday and go through Tuesday (for our Mini Camps) or through Friday for our one-week and two-week camps.  Neither late arrivals nor early departures are allowed.  Either removing a camper from his or her living group early or adding a camper after the week has begun is disruptive to the group process and to the other eleven campers in the group.  If you know that your camper cannot attend the entire week, please select a different camp week. 


"The Miner's Shack" Camp Store  (Not applicable to Day Camps)

For Summer 2012, the cashless camp store at Glisson will return!  You can deposit money into a store account for your camper  during online registration.  You may also choose to deposit to your camper's store account at anytime after registration until your camper comes to camp.  If you would prefer to mail a check or cash for your camper's store account prior to the camp week, please include your camper's name and the session he or she will be attending.  Each camper will go to the camp store with his or her living group more than once during the week. 

*Please Note:  If campers brings cash to camp, they will not be able to use it in the camp store.

Health History, Transportation and Use of Likeness Release

I attest that the health history information I will complete online during the registration process is current, correct and accurately reflects the health status of the camper to whom it pertains. The camper described has permission to participate in all camp activities except as noted by me and/or an examining physician. I give permission to the physician selected by the camp to order x-rays, routine tests, and treatment related to the health of my child for both routine health care and in emergency situations.  If I cannot be reached in an emergency, I give my permission to the physician to hospitalize, secure proper treatment for, and order injection, anesthesia, or surgery for this child.  I understand the information on this form will be shared on a “need to know” basis with camp staff.  I give permission to print or photocopy this form.  In addition, the camp has permission to obtain a copy of my child’s health record from providers who treat my child and these providers may talk with the program’s staff about my child’s health status.

I give permission to the camp staff to transport my camper for emergency or programmatic purposes at the discretion of the Director.
