Rails - Having multiple 'has_many through 'associations on the same model - html

Question

I am working on a rails app that registers campers for a camp. First you sign up using your name, email, etc. Once your profile is made, you can register for a camp. If the camp is not already full, then you are immediately enrolled. If it is full, then you are put on a waitlist. Right now I have 4 models: Campers (name, email, etc.), Camps (name, location, etc.), Enrollments, and Waitlists.
The idea is to have a camper be able to register to many camps, and obviously a camp having many campers enrolled or waitlisted in it. Here are my classes:
# camper.rb
has_many :enrolled_in, :class_name => 'Camps', through: :enrollments, dependent: :destroy
has_many :waitlisted_in, :class_name => 'Camps', through: :waitlists, dependent: :destroy
# camp.rb
has_many :enrolled_campers, :class_name => 'Camper', through: :enrollments
has_many :waitlisted_campers, :class_name => 'Camper', through: :waitlists
I'm having trouble with accessing these models through the views. Here is what show.html.erb looks like:
<!-- Listing camps -->
<h2>Camps</h2>
<p>
<strong>Name:</strong>
<%= #camper.enrolled_in.name %> <!-- This is where I get the error -->
</p>
<!-- Adding camps -->
<h2>Add a camp:</h2>
<%= form_with(model: [#camper, #camper.enrolled_in.build ]) do |form| %>
<p>
<%= form.label :name %><br>
<%= form.text_field :name %>
</p>
<p>
<%= form.submit %>
</p>
<% end %>
But I'm getting the following error:
ActiveRecord::HasManyThroughSourceAssociationNotFoundError in Campers#show
Could not find the source association(s) "enrolled_in" or :enrolled_in in model Enrollment. Try 'has_many :enrolled_in, :through => :enrollments, :source => '. Is it one of camp or camper?
And I honestly can't tell what's going wrong. I'm fairly new to databases and rails, so go easy on me.

Look to direction of HABTM associations.
This will make your code cleaner.
You will have :after_add and :after_destroy actions that will always track model changes (even direct foreign key inserting, unlike in same named has_many callbacks.)
So.
class Camper
has_and_belongs_to_many :waitlists, after_add: :check_camp_ready_to_start_as_example
has_and_belongs_to_many :enrolllists
end
class Waitlist
belongs_to :camp
has_and_belongs_to_many :campers
end
class Enrolllist
belongs_to :camp
has_and_belongs_to_many :campers
end
class Campl
has_many :enrolllists
has_many :waitlists
end
