Registration

Register: To register for a Bluffs Family Camp session call 1-877-474-6326 during our office hours - Monday through Friday, 8:00am to 8:00pm. Registration requires a non-refundable, non-transferable deposit of $325. Current family campers should log in to their existing accounts to register. If you can’t remember your username, call 877-4PINECOVE for assistance. New family campers will create a new account. This account will allow you to complete the remaining steps. Registration requires a non-refundable, non-transferable deposit of $325.

Forms: Beginning January 15, you should receive your important camper forms. This includes the camper profile, covenant/release agreement, and health form. Completed family camper forms are due March 1, 2008.

Pre-register: After June 1, 2008, you can pre-register for the same session next year. This allows current campers to reserve their spot before registration is opened to the public. If you want to come to a different session next year, we recommend that you go ahead and pre-register for your current session and switch later. To pre-register, you must pay the non-refundable, non-transferable deposit of $325. To pre-register call 1-877-474-6326.

Switch session: Beginning August 19, 2008 current family campers who have pre-registered are given an opportunity to switch to a different session before open registration for new campers begins. Call 1-877-474-6326 to switch sessions.

Waiting list: If there is no space available for the camp session you request, you may be placed on a waiting list for that session at no charge. We register hundreds of campers off the waiting lists each year, so don’t lose heart. The waiting list is limited to two camp sessions. When a space is available, we will call you and leave a message, and we will send you an e-mail (if we have your e-mail address.) You will be given two business days to contact the registration department or go online to register. If we do not receive a response, your family will be deleted from our waiting list. Campers may not substitute another family for their spot on the waiting list. During the summer (June through August), because it is a last-minute registration, we will not leave messages. Therefore, it is very important that you give us home, work, and mobile phone numbers and an e-mail address.

Cancellation Policy:
$325 deposit is non-refundable/non-transferable.  In case of cancellation, the deposit will not be returned.  No refunds are given within 30 days of the camp start date.  (If the camp session is filled to capacity during the actual camp week, all but the $325 deposit will be refunded.)  FAMILIES WILL NOT BE PERMITTED TO SUBSTITUTE ANOTHER FAMILY FOR THEIR WEEK OF CAMP.  Once your family has cancelled, you have given up all rights to that spot and the privilege of pre-registering for the following summer. No price adjustments will be made for campers who arrive late or depart early.
