2012 Registration Guidelines (please read before proceeding to register)
Registration opens January 1 for Life Members and Annual Members, providing first choice for rooms and campsites. You can become a member when you register. Registration opens for all others on January 23.
Early Registration Discount: Payments made in full on or before March 31 receive a 5% discount!
Cancellation Policy: More than 2 weeks prior to your scheduled visit, the $100 per person deposit (or full payment received) will be refunded less a $50 processing fee. Within 2 weeks prior to your scheduled visit, the $100 per person deposit will be withheld; all other monies will be refunded. Once the scheduled visit period begins refunds will not be made.
Registering for Kids for the Earth, Different Drummers, and FUUTURE: We will have two weeks in a row of Kids for the Earth, Different Drummers, and FUUTURE. If you have more than one family member attending camp and you want them to attend the same week (or not the same week!) be sure to register early so that we have room to accommodate your family’s scheduling needs. “Early” in this case means January.
To provide the Ferry Beach camp experience to as many as possible, a camper may register for only one week of the two offered before March 31. A camper may register for the second week after March 31.
Call or email the Registrar if you have any questions. The Registrar can be reached at (207) 282-4489 or by email.
Waitlists: Waitlists will be created as necessary. We will contact you before placing you on a waitlist. No deposit is required to be on the waitlist.
Vacationers: Vacationers (no conference participation) wishing to stay 3 or more nights are welcome to register for the summer beginning on April 1, 2011. Vacationers wishing to stay less than 3 nights are welcome to register within two weeks of the days they wish to stay. We reserve the right to relax this policy during non-peak times. Daily rates for vacationers are available here.
Lodging Requests: Room and site requests are honored when possible, in the order received, subject to availability, room capacities and the accessibility needs of all our guests. Single occupancy is available for a premium.
Accessibility: The Underwood dormitory has an accessible first floor and a large, ADA compliant bathroom. Based on our lodging requests policy, FBPA will do the utmost to set aside this area for guests having accessibility needs.
Summer Staff Volunteers: Volunteers organize and run conferences at Ferry Beach. All of the coordinators, workshop leaders, and children’s program leaders are volunteers. Besides our eternal gratitude, they may also earn benefits during the conference.
Call or email Fayre Stephenson, Program Director, if you have questions about volunteering. Fayre can be reached at (207) 282-4489 or by email.
