How to Camp
1. Promote Youth Camp.
Share the posters, videos, and other promotional resources to tell parents about our vision to see youths' lives changed at camp. Families will feed off of your excitement, so be sure to remind them how awesome Youth Camp is! We want to help you promote camp so we have included a bunch of art for you. Mix it up, put your ministry name on it, whatever! We want you to promote Youth Camp in the best way possible. If there is a file or variation of a graphic missing that you need, just let us know! We'll make it happen for you!
2. Register your campers!It is your job to help kids get to camp. Our camp prices and deadlines are listed on the Registration Deadlines and Pricing page. Make sure to add any transportation costs or administrative fees to the price that you advertise.
Register as Camp Coordinator for your church HERE. Once you have registered as Camp Coordinator you will be able to access the progress of your camper's registration requirements. This will include the waiver process and DocuSign for parents/guardians, Cabin Staff registration processes, and more. One stop for everything you will need! It is very important that all students and leaders be registered online by the final deadline. No on-site registration will be available.
3. Recruit your cabin staff.
Every church is responsible to recruit their own Cabin Staff. You need men for boys and women for girls. The ratio is 8:1 (i.e. If you have 9 girls and 3 boys, you need 2 female Cabin Staff and 1 male Cabin Staff). Have your Cabin Staff register for camp using your church's registration link. Remember that:
- Cabin Staff must be at least 18 years old
- Everyone must agree to and pass a background check (processed by the Northwest Ministry Network)
- Each Cabin Staff must have a completed Church Reference Form before the registration deadline
4. Submit Payment
Payment is due in TWO PORTIONS. Invoices for early registration will be sent out the day after early registration closes and are due within 10 days of receipt. A second invoice will be sent after registration closes a week before camp. Pay for the entirety of your group before camp. Your registration will not be considered complete until payment has been submitted. You can pay online via credit card (plus 3% processing fee) or by sending a check. If paying by check, make payable to "Northwest Ministry Network" or "NWMN" and indicate "Youth Camp ______" (COMBO WEST 1, JR HIGH, etc.) in the memo line. You can request payment early at any point if you’re group is completely registered before the deadline.

5. Keep track of registrations and follow up with parents and leaders to make sure every part of the registration is complete.
You can see the status of waivers as PENDING or SIGNED on your camp coordinator brushfire login. Each student needs to register on Brushfire, have a signed Docusign waiver, and have a med sheet printed with medicine in original packing. Leaders need to register on Brushfire, have a signed Docusign waiver, and have a leader reference form submitted on their behalf. We will process background checks.
