What are the deadlines for registering?

A $300.00 per room deposit is required to begin your registration process. Please try to make this deposit by November 20, 2026. We understand that the number of rooms you initially register for is an estimate and that the actual number of rooms may be adjusted until December 18th, 2026, which is the final day to drop or add rooms. The deposit amount will be applied to your total charges. Registrations are accepted as long as space is available.

What is the cost for our bus driver?

If you are hiring a motorcoach and need a room for your bus driver, the cost is $350.00 for the two nights of Winterfest. This rate does not include tickets to any sessions. Your bus driver will be housed at the same location as your group unless you are specifically notified of other arrangements.

Should I expect to receive any correspondence from CSA after I submit my registration form and deposit?

Yes. Once you have submitted your registration form and paid your $300.00 per-room deposit (or made a ticket purchase) you will receive e-mail notification from CSA confirming that we have received your payment and registration information. This correspondence will instruct you as to your next step in the registration process.

What other information or correspondence should I expect to receive from CSA?

After you have submitted your registration form and paid your deposit you must submit a room list for your group detailing who is staying in each room. Please submit your room list online at: CSAREG.com. Based upon the room list information you submit CSA sets up an account for your group and calculates your balance due. CSA will send you a balance due email after the December 18th, 2026, deadline for adding or dropping rooms. You may update your room list and make payments on your account at any time before the December 18th, 2026, deadline.

When do I find out what hotel my group has been assigned to?

CSA will send your “Housing Assignment Notice” approximately two weeks prior to your arrival.

May I request a particular hotel or location for my group?

Yes. All groups are assigned based on the date of receipt of the $300.00 deposit and registration form. CSA will make the best effort to accommodate requests when your group is assigned. Not all hotels are used every year and it is possible that a particular hotel that is requested may not be used this year.

What methods of payment are acceptable?

All Winterfest registration takes place online. Payment should be made by church credit card because of the tax exempt nature of the Winterfest events.
