YOUR PAYMENT
OPTIONS.
The balance of tuition is due
three weeks prior to the event.
Deposits are non-refundable and
the balance of tuition, when
paid, is also non-refundable.
Groups may fill vacancies within
a team by substituting
alternates, but notify us of all
changes as they occur. Each team
must have at least 1 adult per 5
youth, and teams consisting of
both male and female youth
participants must have at least
one male and one female adult.
Pre-event
materials
will be sent to your contact
person 1-2 months prior to the
event or, if nearing the event,
upon receipt of your $25 per
person deposit. Teams that spend
time preparing for the camp
benefit most from the
experience.
Work
at the summer camps takes place
in fields where we get hot,
tired, and dirty. Participants
should be in reasonably good
shape, be willing to get hot and
sweaty, and be ready to work for
4-5 hours each day. Weekend
events in the fall often have
cooler weather, so gleaning
begins later and continues into
the afternoon (4-6 hours). Yes,
we will still glean if it is
raining!
Accommodations
vary from rustic camps with
cabins to air-conditioned dorm
facilities. At some facilities,
participants sleep on floor
mats. No facilities require
participants to sleep outdoors
or in tents.
Transportation--Participants
travel to the fields by the
vehicles in which they were
brought, and we attempt to
consolidate vehicles whenever we
can. No youth under 21 may drive
during the retreat. Factor extra
gas money for all vehicles into
your mission budget for this
event.
You may
apply on-line by
filling out
this form and clicking
