4sunfun2 Posted January 30, 2010 #1 Share Posted January 30, 2010 I've read that it's important to attend the first night. What exactly do they do and what if we miss it? It's Super Bowl Sunday when we sail and everyone wants to watch the game. Any experience with this? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lissa_jean Posted January 30, 2010 #2 Share Posted January 30, 2010 they honestly don't really do anything the first night. you sign them up and they get their capers which lists the activities/events for the week. there are usually no activities for them that evening. if you don't go sign them up im sure you can go back the following day and do so.

First night is just to become familiar with the staff and what activities are planned for the week. It really does get them more excited and gives them a better idea of what to look forward to than just reading it in the camp capers. Sign ups for various age groups also occurs, but they can sign up later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4sunfun2 Posted January 30, 2010 Author #4 Share Posted January 30, 2010 Thanks for the replies! I've signed them up on-line...is this different than the sign-up they do the first night? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kr8z Posted January 30, 2010 #5 Share Posted January 30, 2010 Just sign them up the next morning. You do it online and in person. No biggie. GO COLTS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naomi John Posted January 30, 2010 #6 Share Posted January 30, 2010 Thanks for the replies! I've signed them up on-line...is this different than the sign-up they do the first night? Nope. I did that in February and in September, 2009. Printed the paperwork, dropped the paperwork off at Camp Carnival on Embarkation Day when the Capers said it would be open for a tour, no problem. Next morning, first sea day, dropped child off with no problem. GO COLTS! WHO DAT!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nybumpkin Posted January 30, 2010 #7 Share Posted January 30, 2010 Mostly the first night for the older kids is a chance to meet other kids. It's not the end of the world if they miss, especially if it's Super Bowl Sunday when a lot of folks (like my 13 YO) would want to watch the game.

4sunfun2 Posted January 30, 2010 Author #8 Share Posted January 30, 2010 Thank you all! Our kids are 12 and 10 and like football and want to see the game! Should be a good game! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muumuu Posted February 1, 2010 #9 Share Posted February 1, 2010 This is the first I have heard of signing them up on the computer. How does this work? My grandson wanted only to go to the session to color the tshirt. We signed him up right before and he only went to that class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you go on-line to fill out all of your registration stuff....there is a place to sign the kids up for Camp Carnival. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tampa Bay Irish Posted February 1, 2010 #11 Share Posted February 1, 2010 Check your Carnival Capers newsletter when you check into your cabin for the first time. It will have the time and place of the first meeting. I have seen that meeting being held after dinner of embarkation day and I have also seen that meeting being held the next day. However, signing up for Camp Carnival online beforehand sounds like it makes the most sense. If you do preregister for camp, you will still want to get a copy of Camp Carnival's schedule of activities for your particular age group.You can get the above referenced schedule at the meeting or at the clubhouse itself.
