Scholarship information
We suggest first checking with your local United Methodist congregation to see if the church has scholarship money available. Secondly the pastor will also be able to contact the District office for more fund opportunities. Finally, your local pastor can contact the Conference camping office to request scholarship funds at 888-271-1999. Funds available from the Conference are from local congregations giving through the Camp Dollar Day offerings that are collected in March.
Discounts and Payments
Camp fees are to be paid in full (including Church Vouchers) when registering. All checks should be made payable to Missouri United Methodist Conference, 3601 Amron Ct., Columbia, MO 65202. If your registration is postmarked by the Early Bird Deadline, you may pay the early bird price or choose to pay the entire fee and that difference go into a Camp Scholarship fund to help others attend camp. A pastor-approved Conference Voucher may be included as part of the full payment required. Conference Vouchers will not be given in the form of a reimbursement. In addition to the Early Bird discount, you may be eligible for a family discount when more than 1 child from the same household attends. There is also a Bring a Friend discount of $25 for each friend that has not gone to camp since 2007. Names are required at time of registration.
Cost of camp stretching your budget?
Your church may help pay a part of the fee. Check with your Camp Contact person or your Pastor. Your district may have Campership Funds available. Check with your District office. If you have tried your church and district office, the Camping and Retreat Ministries Office may be able to help. Call 1-888-271-1999 to see if Campership Funds are available.
What happens after I register my child?
You will receive a confirmation letter from the Camping and Retreat office. You will also receive a packet prior to your camp date from the Event Director, with information about what you will need to bring to camp.
Cancellations and Refunds
If the event you have registered for is booked or cancelled, we will help you select another event. If another selection will not work out, you will receive a full refund.
Cancellations must be done at least two weeks prior to the start of camp. You will receive a refund of what you paid, minus a non-refundable $50 deposit fee. If you cancel after the two week cutoff, no refund will be given.
In the event of illness, accident or family emergency, call the camping office PRIOR to the first day of camp.
No refunds or transfers will be made for those who fail to show up on opening day.
Helping Others
Many children and adults only experience camp because of the generosity of loving sponsors who support them with monetary donations. Sponsor a local child from your church or neighborhood. Contact your local church or our office for more information.
Registration Policy
