Participant List Management Platform

Take a few moments to get acquainted with our new Participant List Management Platform (Participant List). This tool will allow you to manage your participant list and provide information for every individual attending camp (name, completed grade, track time selections, etc.). You will also be able to: easily track the status of signed waivers, review your registration and balance details, update the primary contact information associated with your registration, sign the church agreement form, and more!

Participant List FAQs
Return to Group Leader Prep Center


Take a look:

(reference the image above)

(1) This is your participant list! As you add info for campers and adults, they will populate here.

(2) When a parent / guardian or adult submits a Camp Waiver & Release, the information will populate here. With just a few clicks, you can add them to your participant list. If someone submits a Camp Waiver with information that matches someone already on your list, the waiver will automatically link up with the participant! If the system is unable to match a waiver with participant info, you will also find those exceptions here.

(3) Under List Management options, you can (a) sign your church agreement form (available to sign once your completed participant list has been submitted to FUGE Camps), (b) update the group leader contact info (the info displayed on your camp waivers).

(4) You can view all your registration details here, including your financial balance. Note that the system will not allow you to enter more participants on your list than your registered number.

(5) You can click here to quickly add participants to your list. Provide their name, gender, status (camper, adult, etc.) grade completed, and track time selections (MFuge only). You are able to add a participant and complete the track selections later (MFuge only).

(6) This is an alternate method for adding participants to your list. This method is more mobile-friendly.

(7) You can use this column to automatically keep track of who has completed a camp waiver. (No need to make your list and check it twice!)

(8) This column indicates adults (over age 18) who will be automatically populated on your Church Agreement Form after you submit the participant list.

(9) Use the feature to search your list. The search tool is “smart,” so you can search by a name, or you can type “F” to view all the females, or “Adult” to see all the adult leaders.

(10) Click here to finalize your list. After you submit, you will be able to sign the Church Agreement Form. (NOTE: your list will automatically submit at 14 days out from your scheduled arrival to camp whether it is completed or not).

(11) Have any questions or need some help? Click here to find step-by-step instructions and camp contact information for your FUGE Camps location.


Frequently Asked questions:

HOW DO I LOGIN TO THE PARTICIPANT List MANAGEMENT PLATFORM?

Around the end of March, you will receive an email with a link to login to our new Participant List Management Platform. Look for an email with the subject: “Link to your Participant List for FUGE Camps.” This email will also include your login credentials. Once you receive the link and login details, consider bookmarking the link for easy access. 

Important: Please do not share this link or your login details with anyone except those approved to manage your registration and participant list.

WHO SHOULD I CONTACT FOR HELP WITH THE PARTICIPANT List MANAGEMENT PLATFORM?

If you need to make an adjustment to your registration details (adjust registered numbers, make a payment, make more substantial changes to group leader contact information, etc.), please contact our customer service team at 877-CAMP-123 or [email protected].

If you need help with information regarding managing participants, please contact the camp phone or email for the location in which you are attending camp at. Camp contact information can be found here on your camp-specific location page. You can always reach out to [email protected] with questions.

WHEN IS MY PARTICIPANT LIST DUE?

14 days prior to the beginning of your camp. It is very important that you complete and submit your information in a timely manner. Our camp staff rely on this information to assign Bible study groups, assign track times, and make housing assignments. We are unable to complete these important tasks until we have a completed participant list from every group for a particular camp.

WHEN WILL THE PARTICIPANT LIST LOCK?

The participant list will automatically lock 14 days prior to your scheduled arrival to camp. You will still have access to view your information, but you will be unable to make edits to participants, and you will need to contact the camp phone and/or email for assistance.

WHY CAN’T I ADD ADDITIONAL PARTICIPANTS TO MY LIST?

The system will not allow you to enter more participants on your list than your registered number. If your list is full and you need to add additional participants, please contact our Customer Service team at 877-CAMP-123. Pending availability, they can help you add additional spots to your registration. Once this is complete, you can add additional participants to your list.

You may also be unable to add additional participants to your list if you are within 14 days of the beginning of camp (lists lock automatically at this point). Please contact the camp phone and/or email for assistance. Contact information for your camp location is located on your camp-specific location page.

WHERE DO I FIND TRACK TIME INFORMATION?

Track time information is found in the Track Times + Ministry Tracks tab of the group leader prep center.

NOTE: Centrifuge & MFuge will select their tracks prior to their arrival to camp.

WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF PARTICIPANTS AT CAMP?

In general, participants are either adults (chaperones) or students (completed 6th-12th grade). In some instances, there may be other participants, such as minors who are either too young or too old to fit other categories and are not participating as campers.

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN STATUS AND GRADE?

Status indicates a more broad grouping (student, adult, or other), and grade helps us further categorize participants into groups, bible studies, etc.

HOW SHOULD I HANDLE PARTICIPANTS WHO ARE YOUNGER OR OLDER THAN CAMPER AGE?

FUGE Camps is designed for students who have completed 6th-12th grade. In some instances, group leaders request to bring younger campers or older campers as participants. In these instances, please contact [email protected].

International Mission Board (IMB)

https://www.imb.org/fuge/

The International Mission Board teams up with local churches to share God’s love with people all across North Africa and the Middle East (NAME). These places are packed with amazing history. It’s where Jesus’ story began! This summer, you get to be part of bringing hope to kids and families who live there. 

We’re focusing on a country that has become a safe place for people who had to leave their homes because of war. It’s a place where God is doing some amazing things! Teens just like you are helping share the hope of Jesus with people from different backgrounds. 

Your mission workers are helping families hear about Jesus in all kinds of ways. Many people are hearing the good news of Jesus Christ every day. 

Here’s the cool part: YOU get to be part of it. Your prayers, mission offering, and everything you learn this summer helps you join in on what God is doing in this amazing place.

Every year a portion of the mission offering received at camp goes back to the local community through MFuge grants. Local ministries that we partner with can apply for the grant to continue ministry throughout the year. It is amazing to see how the Lord uses these ministries throughout the year.

North American Mission Board (NAMB)

“We lead the country in everything you don’t want to lead the country in.” 

If people know anything about South Dakota’s Pine Ridge Indian Reservation, Matt Hadden says it’s probably that.  

“We have 80% unemployment, the average lifespan of an adult male is 50 years, and the teen suicide rate is 300% higher than the national average,” he says. “Several years ago, we had 26 teenagers take their lives in a three-month period. If that happened anywhere else in the country, it would be national news.”

Matt is a missionary with Send Relief, Southern Baptists’ compassion ministry arm. He and his wife, Amanda, along with their four kids, run the Čhaŋkú Wašté Ranch on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation, home to the Oglala Lakota people. 

“Čhaŋkú Wašté means ‘Good Road,’” he says, “and there’s a reason we call it that. The Oglala are essentially an unreached people group right here in the center of our country, and there’s so much brokenness here. Most people on the reservation, kids especially, have been through traumatic experiences or are living in crisis mode. And so, we are absolutely an evangelistic ministry, but our approach is through compassion ministry.”

Much of what the Haddens do at Čhaŋkú Wašté is built around an eight-week-long summer kids’ camp. “We do a really big, glorified VBS,” Matt says. “It’s a safe place for kids to learn and celebrate who God made them to be. They learn Bible stories, they play games, they do arts and crafts, and really, we just all have a lot of fun.” 

When you give to the FUGE Missions Offering, you’re helping provide basketballs, Bibles, crayons, and anything else missionaries like the Haddens might need to share Christ in an unreached place.  

Pray that Matt and Amanda will be fully supplied so they can meet needs and see God change lives in South Dakota. Giving to this project will go a long way towards making that happen.

To learn exactly what your offering dollars can do in places like South Dakota and how missionaries all over the U.S. and Canada are meeting needs and seeing God change lives, go to namb.net/lifeway-camps.

The LaHaye Rec & Fit Equipment Rental Agreement is only for the Liberty Mountain Snowflex Centre, if any churches are planning to use that facility throughout the week. They must book that time themselves directly with Snowflex and they will be responsible for any additional fees. This is not included in the cost of camp.

Click HERE to access the form.

The LaHaye Rock Wall Assumption of Risk form is a form only for those that want to use the LaHaye Rock Wall during Hang Time. The Rock Wall is first come, first served and is included in the price of camp but is only available during Free Time, and not during Track Times.

Click HERE to access the form.

The LaHaye Recreation and Fitness Center Assumption of Risk form is for ALL participants that wish to take part in any activities during Track Times or Hang Time in the recreation center. While not everyone will use LaHaye, it’s wise to have everyone complete one of these forms.

  • If my church uses MinistrySafe, will that count for my Child Protection Training requirement? 
    • Yes. If your church uses MinistrySafe and you have completed that training within one calendar year of your DEPARTURE date from camp, that course will suffice for this training requirement.
  • Can I share my login information with another adult volunteer who still needs to complete their Child Protection Training course? 
    • No. Each adult attending camp will have to create their own login and complete the course in their name.
  • I keep running into an error trying to login or access the Child Protection Training course. Who should I contact? 
    • Please reach out to [email protected] if you are experiencing any technical difficulties or errors with the MinistryGrid site.
