Camp Hope Sessions

 

Camp Hope offers three sessions for children and two sessions for adults. Each session serves a different population. (One session serves children and teens with physical disabilities who are cognitively average, another serves multi-handicapped children & teens who are mild to moderately developmentally delayed. A third serves those with mild to moderate delays who are ambulatory.) The adult sessions are designed for previous campers who grow up and wish to continue in a more intense Bible program.

 

Camp Hope offers five one-week sessions for children, two sessions for adults and one small family session. Each session serves a different population. (One session serves children and teens with physical disabilities who are cognitively average, two serve ambulatory campers who have mild developmental disabilities and two others serve multi-handicapped children & teens who are children and teens with moderate to severe intellectual disabilities) The adult sessions are designed for previous campers who grow up and wish to continue in a more intense Bible program.

 

All prospective campers will be screened by telephone, and then interviewed before acceptance and placement in an appropriate camp session. The Camp Director has final discretion about session placement.  Campers who are accepted will then receive an application form to complete.

The camp fee is $575.  The cost includes a nonrefundable $75 registration fee.  Those with financial needs may apply for partial camperships.  Camp Hope can also offer direction to agencies which may help cover the fees.

Camp Hope Online Registration PDF Print E-mail
Written by Richard Meyer   
Monday, 03 January 2011 15:47

 

Thank you for using our online registration!  

This online registration process is only for campers who already have a session assigned to them with the appropriate password.

If you do not have a session assigned to your child and would like to schedule an interview please fill out an inquiry form first.

Below is a list of some instructions that may be of help to you.  

You need to go through the application process before you can register your child.

Click here to begin.

 

Requirements

In order to use our online registration, you will need to have one of the following:

 

For PCs – Internet Explorer 7 or 8 or Firefox

For Macs – Firefox only (you may be able to begin the process with something else, but it will fail partway through!)

 

Allow about an hour for the process.

 

To Get Started

There are several forms to complete. You can do it in more than one sitting, but make sure you use the same username and password. If you need to type the camper’s name again, make sure you spell it the same (if you used Robert originally, do not type Rob or Bobby) and that you have the correct birthdate and year.

 

NOTE: The summer medical forms must be received at least three weeks prior to the scheduled start of the assigned session, or the camper will not be allowed to attend camp.

 

Anything in red print on the registration are instructions to help you.

Anything in blue print can be clicked on.

 

If you have questions about terms on the page, there is a blue question mark ? at the top of each page which you can click. You will find some information there.

 

Each time you come to the end of a form/page, click “next”.

 

There are places on each page to cancel the process. However, the information you have already entered will be saved on the camp program.

 

There is not a place for you to print a copy of the application you have entered online. However, you can review each page of your information, and print the screens.

 

Log on

  • Log on to our website www.cbfny.org
  • Click on Camp Hope Registration in the green Applications section toward the left/bottom of screen
  • You will come to the sign-in page. If this is your first time logging on, you will need to choose a login name and a password. Please keep a record of these. You will need to use them every time you log on.

 


If you forget ….

 

If you forget your password, just type something where the program asks for your password, and you will have the option to change the password.

 

If you forget your user name and password, you can call or e-mail us, 845-225-2005, ext. 207,  This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it , or call CampWise at 866-433-4548.

 

  • Type in your user name and password.

 

Apply

 

  • Begin to fill out the form. Make sure that you fill in everything marked with * (an asterick) – it is required and the program will not let you go on until you enter it.

 

  • For any question that asks a DATE, you can use the calendar icon to the right of the date,  or type in the two digit month, two digit date and four digit year.

 

  • When you come to the question, “Do you have a group registration provided by your group leader?” Click “yes”. This is very important! It is the only way that the camper will be registered in a session appropriate for him or her! Enter the group hold id number you receive from the camp. It will be a word, the year (11) and m or f.

 

 

 

This is for your camper’s spot only. Please do NOT give it to someone else to use, because it is not for every session or camper. If you lose this sheet, or if you have not been given a group hold id, please give us a call at 845-225-2005 ext. 207 so we can give you the group id number/password.

 

  • The program will ask you to confirm birthdate and gender before you go on.

 

  • One session should show up as available. You can click that. Call us if there are no available sessions.

 

 

Hint:

After typing in a zipcode in any address, you can click the three dots afterward, and the program will automatically type in the city and state, if you wish.

 

 

Parent/Guardian page

 

  • If the camper/guest is an adult who is their own guardian, please list the first emergency contact under parent/guardian.

 

  • If it is okay for camper/guest to be picked up by each of the individuals listed, at camp or at bus pickup, please check the appropriate box.

 

  • There are places after most questions for additional information. The more information that you leave, the better we are able to assist your camper/guest.

 

Hint:

 

Sometimes at the bottom of a page, you may need to scroll to the right to see the next button to click.

 

 

 

 

 

 

  • Whenever you finish a section, if required sections left blank, the program will have you review them until they are complete. The items that you need to complete will be described in red.

 

Transportation

 

  • When you are asked the session, the drop down menu will display the only one available, so you can check that.

 

  • Choose one of the options- (If you are choosing different options for day of arrival and day of departure, let us know that by telephone, e-mail or snail mail)

 

Billing screen – this only needs to be completed if the person billed is different than the parent/guardian or adult guest.

 

Subprograms - There are no subprograms to select.

 

Other programs – there will not be other programs available

 

Make payment/logout screen

 

  • We are able to accept e-checks online. We also accept mail-in checks and money orders. We are not able to accept credit cards at this time.

 

  • You can pay the full fee at this time if you prefer

 

  • Go to the section that says Registration payment description. Write the amount of your e-check or mail-in check. If you are not paying at this time (you may have Family Reimbursement that will pay the full amount, you may be waiting on campership information, or any other reason) leave it at 0. There is NOT information about payment plans online. These will be dealt with at the camp office on a one-on-one basis. Later, you can check on-line. Your payment plan will be available for you to view when you log on after it has been processed and approved at the camp office.

 

  • You can pay your registration fee with an e-check, or indicate that you are mailing in the $75 registration fee. Even if you are paying by cash or money order, you can enter “personal check” for type of check. If you do not have the check number, or if you are sending a money order, enter “1111” for check number, “1111” for name on check and “1111” for bank name. Include your e-mail address if you would like us to e-mail the receipt when we receive your check in the mail.

 

  • Click on check out and store payments. (hopefully we’ll be able to remove the store payments part.)

 

  • If it brings up store payments, please DO NOT send any funds for the camp store. Campers/guests will not bring canteen money this year, as all visits to canteen will be paid for through the camp fee.

 

  • Click on proceed to check out.

 

  • Although you may see credit card on the payment screen, we are NOT able to accept credit card payments. Choose mail-in check or e-check. If you are using an e-check, fill in the information. It will take a couple of weeks for the payment to go through the ?Aslan system. You will receive a receipt from us when you register with an e-check. However, if it does not clear, we will let you know so that you can replace it with a mail-in check.

 

Finishing

 

  • When finished, you can check information using Account Information button, or logout using the logout button.

 

  • The next time you log in, make sure to use the same username and password.
