Registration Forms

Please fill out registration forms completely. Please fill out, front and back, one form per person. When selecting Learning Circles, please indicate a 1st and 2nd choice for each timeslot, and make note of any Learning Circle fees. Information on the forms is never made available to anyone outside of the staff. However, new registrants are added to our mailing list. Our mailing list is not shared outside of CSQ. Age and gender questions are for registration statistics.

Sign-in on Site

Sign-in and Registration will be clearly marked and will be staffed Friday afternoon and early evening and again on Saturday morning. You must sign in upon arrival. You must also arrive before 8:00 PM, as the Umstead park gate closes at that time. At registration, there is a large map on which you are requested to indicate your cabin so that your friends and others who may be looking for you know where to start. Please bring found items to Registration and seek lost ones there as soon as possible.

Early Arrival on Site: Spring Quest begins on Friday with the afternoon Learning Circles. Everyone is welcome Friday, but we do not have any space Thursday for early registration or early arrival. Thank you for your help and understanding!

Choose Your Community Service Shift Early

Each person attending Spirit Quest is required to sign up for at least one two-hour community service shift. It is necessary that everyone take part in this shared labor for the gathering to function pleasantly for all participants. Please sign up for a job at Check-In when you arrive.

Site Cleanup

It is very important that we return the Site to the condition it was in before we arrived for Spirit Quest. The Staff consists of volunteers, who also pay to attend the event. In order to encourage all of the participants to help in this last community effort, we require that all registrants include a separate $25 check as a refundable deposit for site cleanup. This check will be returned at 3:30 PM on Sunday to all participants who have helped clean the site. Those who do not wish to participate in the cleanup will donate their checks to the Bart Wendell Scholarship Fund for attendance at next year's event. Checks that are not returned WILL be cashed. If you absolutely must leave before 3:30 PM, please make separate cleanup arrangements to allow your check to be returned to you. (You may also do cleanup and donate your check to the Scholarship Fund.)

IMPORTANT NOTES:

• Site Clean-Up is separate from the mandatory Community Service shift. Completion of a Community Service shift during the weekend does not count towards cleaning the site on Sunday. Donating your clean-up deposit to the Bart Wendell Scholarship Fund does not exempt you from a Community Service shift during the weekend.
• Site Clean-Up is also separate from cleaning cabin sites. Before leaving, please be sure you leave your cabin area as clean as the way you found it.

Early arrival on Site

Spring Quest begins on Friday with the afternoon learning circles. Everyone is welcome Friday, but we do not have any space Thursday for early registration or early arrival. Thank you for your help and understanding!

T-Shirts

These Anvil pre-shrunk, 100% cotton T-shirts must be ordered when you send in your registration. Sizes and prices are on the registration form. Adult and children's sizes are $14. Adult 2XL and 3XL cost $16. T-shirt orders on registrations postmarked after March 30, 2005, will not be filled.
