Applications must be reviewed after being submitted, to determine acceptance. 

Tips for applying:

• When you click APPLY below, you will be directed to CampDoc, an online registration site.
• If this is your first time to Camp Mak-A-Dream or your first time applying through CampDoc, you will need to create an account. *Save this login and password information, you will need it again.
• Enter the participant information.  For Family Camp or the Caregivers Retreat, please provide the survivor’s information as the participant.  There will be a section in the health profile to provide information about the caregiver/family members.
• On the Registration page, click “Register for a new session” to see the list of camps the participant is eligible to attend. Participants are welcome to apply for Family Camp or the Caregivers Retreat in addition to their individual camp.  Add the preferred session and click continue.
• When you click “Register” on the Confirmation page, you will see a pop-up telling you that you have successfully registered. Do not stop here! Click ok, and you will be able to access the application questions in the health profile.  You must complete the health profile to 100% before your application will be reviewed to determine your acceptance to Camp.
• When a section is complete, you will see a green check mark in front of the section name. If you see a red dot, there are required questions in that section that must be answered to complete the section.
• CampDoc will automatically be saving your answers as you work through the form. You can go back into a section to edit information if needed.
• You should see a message pop up saying “Heath Profile Complete” and receive an email notification when you have filled the application out to 100%.  Don’t worry that there isn’t a submit button, it has been saving as you go.
• If you have an additional camper to register, click on “Add new participant” to start the process for your next camper.
• All complete health profiles will be reviewed by our medical committee to determine eligibility and acceptance.   If a participant is eligible to move forward in the application process, a physical form completed by the participant’s doctor must be received and reviewed prior to a final decision about the participant’s acceptance being made.  The form is available to download from within the health profile, in the Physical Form sub-section, for those who wish to be proactive in providing the form to their doctor prior to receiving a status update.
• All status updates, including acceptance, will be sent via email to the address you provided.
• If you are accepted to your session, there will be additional forms in your health profile that will require your attention.
• Campers who have attended two or more times may be placed on a wait list.  All campers placed on the wait list will hear of acceptance no later than 14 days before the start of the session.
