We are looking forward to having you at one of our Avalanche sessions this year! The following are step-by-step instructions on how to register your students, leaders, and how payments will operate.
Capacity Limits
Due to COVID-19 restrictions, our capacity limits have changed from previous years. We will need to be extra cautious of the number of students and leaders that will be attending our Avalanche sessions. We ask that the group leader call our office at (218-426-3389) or email us at office@bigsandycamp.com with the number of students and leaders your group plans to bring. This needs to be done as soon as possible.
TroyAnn Nelson, our office manager is available the following days each week. Thanks for your patience with her responding to you as quickly as possible based upon these hours.
- Monday – 8:00 am to 3:00 pm
- Tuesday – 8:00 am to 3:00 pm
- Thursday – 8:00 am to 3:00 pm
- Friday – 8:00 am to 12:00 noon
Click here for the Registration Steps.
Log into UltraCamp (our registration software) and register your students by group. We will send out an email to all group leaders telling you how many (if any) additional spots there are available for each Avalanche session. Spots will be filled on a first come, first serve basis.
If you have two or less students that you want to register, please call our Office first to register these students.
Payment Information
Cost of 2020 Avalanche sessions is $114 for each student and $85 for leaders.
There is a $25 nonrefundable, nontransferable deposit per student and leader due at time of registration.
We prefer you write a check and send it in the mail.
