To deal with money coming in you would have to create an income account

Income: Camp Fees 

for example.  Depending on how your bank implemented the CSV either the
values in the column I assigned the Withdrawal header, labelled Debit in the
first column your bank supplied. If so you don't need to make any changes to
the import Settings. Some banks will give you a separate column which they
will label Credits. If so, just apply the Deposit heading to that column and
import it. If it had an entry in the "Type" column of "Money In"  you would
match that to the Income:Camp Fees account just as you matched Camps Out
before.

GnuCash is a fully featured double entry accounting package. It is not
possible to set it up as a spreadsheet with simple Money In and Money Out
columns. It is however possible to provide a detailed breakdown of income
sources and expense types, record longer term assets purchased (equipment
etc) and to prepare financial stements that an auditor would recognize and
accept depending on your local legislation governing how clubs and
associations should be run (talk to a local lawyer or accountant) and the
finacial records they need to keep.  You really need to read the Basics
Chapter of the Tutorial and Concepts guide
https://www.gnucash.org/docs/v3/C/gnucash-guide/index.html to understand how
it works.
Good Luck
