Itās the moment youāve all been waiting for! Welcome to another exciting year of Camp Weehawken!
This year, two new moderators have been added to help run this blog.
Give a warm welcome to Mod Coral and Mod Yoyo!
Letās get some important notices underway:
Discord: We will also be adding a new feature to the AU: an Optional* Discord server for weehawken discussion. An invite to the server will remain open throughout the eventās duration. A post with details about this will be up soon! Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā
*Joining the server is NOT necessary to participate in Camp Weehawken.
Startup Date: For the rest of May participants can prepare their blogs and sign up, though sign ups will be available throughout the summer. The official start date of camp is the beginning of June but you may roleplay with other participants that are signed up and ready if you are.
Please note: What you should know before signing up is there are a number of different people participating and the portrayal of a character does not necessarily reflect the actions and beliefs of the blog mod. If you see anything that concerns you, send a message to this blog and weāll do our best to work things out.
Message this blog and give us these three details:
Desired Role: options are camper, counselor or staff. If you would rather have some other role like camp mascot, send a request! Campers are under the age of 18. They tend to range from 12 - 17 years of age but you can have somewhat younger characters. Only characters 18 years old and up can be staff or counselors. Because this is an AU you can make your character any age youād like!
Blog Name: Once you have a RP blog set up, tell us the blog name. Tumblr might not let the message through if you type a URL. Just give us the name of the blog, like so: ex. ācampweehawkenā
Preferred Cabin: Campers and counselors reside in cabins that fit one counselor and a maximum of 8 campers.Ā If you have any preference for what cabin you want to be sorted into, let us know in your registration. If you supply no preference you will be sorted into a random cabin.
Take a look at the 2017 Cabin List to see where you and other campers have been sorted as well at who the staff are! Links to all participant blogs will be available there. The list is constantly updating as more submissions come in. Ā Ā Ā Ā
If your blog has more than one character, you will be filling up more than one vacancy spot unless your characters happen to be family: cousins, twins, siblings. Then, the characters can share a bed in the cabin and fill up just one vacancy spot.
Since itās hard for me to cover all of the topics in one little post, Iām going to give you all some resources to help you figure this event out.
-FAQ: Answers to general questions we receive. Also a well of basic information about this event.
-Camp Weehawken Staff Brochure: Information about camp activities and various roles to be played at Camp.
-Camp Tags: The tags that are used on this blog and participantās blogs for the event.
If you canāt find an answer to your question in any of these places, just drop us an ask and weāll respond as soon as we can.
All in all, Camp Weehawken is an open ended event! You can be as creative as youād like. But keep in mind that this is a public event! Please be respectful.
If you have any issues with other participants, how things are being run or any other problems, the moderators are here to help. You can send messages to this blog to request help with any topic.
Without further ado, letās start taking those applications!
