When do I send money to the canteen? How much should I send?

Every day, campers have the opportunity to purchase items such as candy, crackers, ice cream, and drink items at the Canteen. We recommend depositing $25-35 for a full week and $15-20 for weekend camps into their camp canteen account. Any remaining funds will be credited to your account. Account balances of $20 or more will be refunded at the conclusion of the camp season if not designated to be donated to the Camp’s mission project. Balance of payments, including canteen money, can be made online by visiting My Account or by USPS mail. Checks can be mailed to the camp office.

When and how do I pay?

A minimum $100 deposit is required with all registrations. Balances, including canteen money, can be made online by visiting My Account or by USPS mail payable to Camp Omega. Upon processing your payment, you will be sent an email confirming the transactions and balance due. Automatic payment plans which deduct from your account on the 1st of every month are also available. Full payment is due 14 days prior to the camp session. We encourage you to add camp store funds prior to the first day of camp to speed up the onsite registration process!

What about medications?

The camper’s Health Form must list all medications. At check-in, all medications (prescription, over-the-counter, vitamin, essential oils) must be turned into the Health Care Coordinator to be safely dispensed. Any concerns can be reviewed with the Health Care Coordinator on duty. All medications must be in their original packaging, bottle, or containers labeled with the camper’s name. Any concerns can be reviewed with the Health Care Coordinator on duty.

Camp for People with Developmental Disabilities – Please bring your medications packaged by med pass time with full prescription information (prescription name, dosage, etc.) Call the office for more information.

What about cell phones?

This opportunity could be one of the only times in your child’s life when they are disconnected from technology. Leaving phones at home allows campers to focus on being a kid, relationship-building with new friends, and being 100% present at camp. Cell phones are not allowed by campers during the camp session. Any cell phone brought to Camp Omega will be confiscated. You and your child are responsible for obtaining the confiscated cell phone prior to departure.

Counsel your child that if they need to contact home, they should speak with their counselor. Please trust the camp staff to address the needs of your child. If a situation reaches a point where we believe you should be notified and/or involved, know that you will be consulted.

*Cell Phones are a liability to camper safety: Research shows that cell phone use by youth in general can lead to bullying and unsafe environments. By removing a camper’s access to technology, we avoid possible exposure to the following:
-Bullying via social media
-Inappropriate / explicit materials
-Unauthorized photographs and videos of other campers
-Homesickness due to lack of immersion into the camp environment

If you have questions or concerns about our Cell Phone Policy, please contact our office at 507-685-4266.

What is the cancellation policy?

All cancellations must be received in writing by mail or email. A refund, minus the non-refundable deposit, will be granted if the request is received 30 days prior to the first day of the camp session.

Is it alright to bring a fan to camp?

The cabins can get warm, so fans are encouraged. Since there is not a lot of extra room in the cabins, please limit the size of your fan. However, remember that there is no electricity in the Outpost Villages.

What about camp pictures?

The photo gallery and camper mail are both integrated with the registration process. Simply log into your account to see the photos from the week your camper was at camp or to mail your camper. You may also simply follow these links to directly access camper mail and the photo gallery.

What do I do if my child has a special diet?

Dietary needs must be communicated to the camp prior to arrival, outlined on the camper’s Health Form, and discussed with the Health Care Coordinator at the time of arrival. Camp Omega is willing to accommodate needs as able. Dietary needs will be discussed with the camp’s Food Service Director.

Do I have to be Lutheran to come to Camp Omega?

No, absolutely not! Camp Omega is a Christ-centered organization affiliated with the Lutheran Church – Missouri Synod. Camp Omega’s outreach is to welcome and minister to diverse denominations and many non-churched families. Our de-emphasis on issues peripheral to the Gospel has enabled us to deeply affect people from many faith traditions.

How will my child be supervised while at Camp Omega?

All counselors are over 18 years old. Our ten-day intensive staff training covers camper safety and health, program activities, and Bible Study preparation, and other subjects per required by the American Camping Association. All counselors are American Red Cross certified in CPR and First Aid. On Main Camp, counselors stay with the campers in the cabins; in the Outpost, counselors stay in a counselor quad. All camp games and activities are supervised by the counselors.

How are the pool and lake activities supervised?

All aquatic activities are under the direct supervision of American Red Cross certified lifeguards.

What has Camp Omega done about safety?

Camp Omega is annually inspected by the State of Minnesota Department of Health and is accredited by the American Camping Association (ACA). Developed exclusively for the camping industry, the ACA is a nationally recognized program that focuses on program quality and health and safety issues and requires us to review every facet of our operation. Camp Omega voluntarily submits to this independent appraisal done by camp experts and has earned this mark of distinction.
