Depending on which retreat you wish to attend, there may be many others also trying to register. Generally, the weeks with the greatest demand for space are the Family Weeks, especially those in July and early August, and the Omega Teen Retreat. Due to the high volume of requests for these retreats, Camp Arcadia conducts a January Drawing. To enter the January Drawing for one of these retreats, either submit an online application or postmark your paper registration no later than January 18, 2019. January 18th is the deadline to participate in this drawing.
Participation in the January registration drawing does not guarantee that you will be registered for a retreat. We try our best to accommodate as many guests as possible.
We will email you the results of your registration request by February 15, 2019. If you get in, your deposit will be processed. If you do not get in, you will be placed on a wait list and your deposit will not be processed.
Group Reservations During Family Weeks
Multi-family groups are welcome to register together for family weeks. Groups of up to 25 people from more than one mailing address wishing to attend the same week are what we consider “Group Reservations.” To make a Group Reservation, either enclose all registration forms together in one envelope and mail them together or send separately indicating the group contact on the registration form and submit (online or mail) by the deadline date. The group contact person should be the same person on all forms for the group. This person will act as liaison between the Camp Office and the members of the group in the event that Camp Arcadia needs to coordinate with the group. Group Reservations are most easily accommodated in the weeks earlier or later in the summer.
SENDING FORMS AFTER JANUARY 18, 2019
All registration requests postmarked after January 18, 2019 will be handled in the order they are received. If all the retreats on your request form are full, we will not process your deposit and we will place you on the wait list. Depending on the volume of requests we receive, we expect to notify you about your status within 7-10 business days.

Wait List
Those who are not accommodated through the registration process will be placed on wait lists for all retreats listed under “retreat preferences” on the registration form.
