All-In-One Automated Registration System

We've been working with the Bird Conservancy of the Rockies since 2014 helping them to manage camp registration, year round program registration and managing their volunteers. They were in need of an automated registration system that would allow them to manage all of their programs in one central location.

Regpack was the only automated registration system and solution that truly offered all of their needs - camp, program and volunteers - in one centralized location.

And believe me, this is crucial for the amazing team at the Conservancy. These guys are BUSY! In addition to their programming, they are doing scientific monitoring, research, land stewardship, bird banding, and much more. Check out all their amazing work on their newly redesigned website!

Our interview below is with Peggy Watson, Outreach and Education Coordinator for the Conservancy. She goes into more detail about how they transformed their disjointed paper registration process and manual payment collection, into one centralized online process that works for everyone. Regpack also helps her and her colleagues be more efficient with their admin duties. They are a great example of how the Regpack automated registration system can work for any organization.

Regpack isn't tailored to just camps, or just events, or just volunteer management. We can do it all, and every organization can decide what their registration experience will look like. And for admins, you can manage all of your data in one place, with the same sweet tools Regpack offers everyone! The team at the Bird Conservancy of the Rockies has enough going on, being able to easily manage all of their programming, from anywhere, is key to helping to fulfill their mission!

Thanks to Peggy for taking the time to chat with us!

Tell me a bit about yourself and the Bird Conservancy of the Rockies.

My name is Peggy Watson and I am Colorado native. I've been with bird conservancy for around 3.5 years and it's a really awesome organization.

Our organization works from the Canadian border in Montana down into Central Mexico doing bird conservation work. The mission of the organization is to conserve birds in their habitat through education, science and land stewardship. I am the Outreach and Volunteer Coordinator for our Education team. I work with our volunteers in the education department and I also work with schools doing programs in the classroom and then outreach events.

You offer a variety of programming, including year round programs, camps as well as managing your volunteers. Can you tell me more about your programs?

We do summer camps, school programs onsite and in the classroom, home school programs, family and community programs. Our science team is doing bird population monitoring in the Rocky Mountain region and a lot of different projects. Our Land stewardship biologists are working with landowners to improve bird habitats.

Prior to Regpack, we were doing everything by paper and by email, phone, etc. Just the old school way of doing it. Especially when it came to camp and school registration. We had a volunteer system that wasn't super user friendly, but it worked. We were hoping to get something that was all centralized in one place. Regpack was one of the only ones that gave us the option to achieve that.

Often times volunteer management doesn't link with program registration. Regpack was able to make that work for us, which is great!
