How it works
Your Part:
To receive a church group discount, we will require a minimum of seven (7) individuals and a guarantee of ½ the maximum occupancy for each room you would like to reserve. In other words, if a single room has a maximum occupancy of 8 people, we will require a minimum guarantee of 4 people to reserve that room. The goal is to have the church promote the event to your members and bring up a community of fathers and sons from your congregation to grow or restore relationships.
Our part:
We give your church a discounted rate for each camper (this is a lower rate than individuals not coming with a church as you are organizing, promoting, and processing your own attendee payments). Plus, each camper has free access to all free recreation activities (paintball is extra). We provide your church with access to Hartland’s online registration system. This easy-to-use system streamlines registering campers, sending confirmation notices, and creating rosters (paper forms are also available). We also provide you with a free promotional video, posters, bulletin inserts, and flyers to get the word out.
Your Part:
- You decide how many camper spots you want to reserve and submit your request below.
- You secure the spots by signing a contract and making a deposit of $40 per camper.
- You collect the completed registrations and money from your campers.
- Two weeks before camp, you give Hartland one check for the camp fees’ balance due, cabin assignment sheets, completed medical forms, and volunteer counselor applications.
Promotional Materials
Materials will become available as we approach the retreat.
