Database Rollover Step 1: Begin enrolling & hiring for next year

Completing Step 1 will open the following year for enrollment/hiring within your database. Note: Your present year is not impacted by completing Step 1.

During Step 1, CampSite will offer to copy common items/settings from the present year to the following year. These items may still be edited or deleted after they're copied over. You may also add new items as needed, after the rollover, via the respective page for each item.

Please note:

• You cannot save your changes without submitting Step 1, so please plan to finish this process in one sitting. 
• For security purposes, CampSite will log you out after approx. 4 hours, so plan to begin Step 1 when you have time to complete it within 4 hours.
• Step 1 cannot be accessed again after it's been submitted, so if you neglect to copy something that you need, you'll need to build it out again manually.
  

First, please review the "Important information" section at the top of "Step 1" before proceeding.

For step-by-step guidance on completing each part of Step 1, please read below.
