- WAIT LIST. To be placed on a waitlist you will need to register through Thriva. Please be advised that this does not guarantee a spot! Cabin space and program space are directly tied together. This is the only waitlist. It is still suggested you register for another program in the same week (and put your name on the waitlist for the program desired) to guarantee cabin space. In the event that participation spots do not fill, you will be contacted by the registrar no later than the Wednesday prior to your session. These will be offered in the order they were received through Thriva.
If a spot opens you will be contacted by the camp registrar.
