Happy New Year!!!

We’re excited to announce that registration is officially open! Please use the link below to register:

app.campdoc.com/register/camppaquatuck

Once you get to the site you will be directed to put in your email and create a password. Please use an email address that you want to be contacted at regarding registration, etc. Once you register, we will contact you regarding billing. You don’t need to make any payments at this time. Go through all of it and fill out what you can. You don’t have to do everything at once. You can save it and come back to it. The system will remind you to continue to fill out your registration.

The great news is once we get everything going this year, next year you only need to review your account and add the new medical information. No more filling out endless paperwork! This platform also allows us to send out emails and keep a database of all your information.

We know this is a new platform for all of us so there will be lots of questions! Please don’t hesitate to reach out to us. Thank you for registering with us. We look forward to another fun and safe summer!

Stay awesome,
