Camp Omega
Summer 2018
introduction
Welcome
The most valuable gift you can give a child is the opportunity to develop independence,
self-worth, leadership, responsibility, and most of all, life-long faith in Jesus Christ. At
Camp Omega, children develop a stronger sense of self, others, and God; they learn
how to navigate the world successfully; they learn resiliency; and they learn the value
of healthy, Christ-centered relationships.
Camp Omega Day – June 9th
In early June, Camp Omega hosts a special “Open House” opportunity for guests of all
ages to experience and celebrate the camp community. Activities include swimming,
horse-drawn wagon rides, pontoon boat rides, archery, canoeing, and a FREE picnic-style
barbeque. Stay for the day or just stop in to see what camp is all about. This is a FREE
event for all ages! Visit www.CampOmega.org for more information.
Leadership Training Camp
This leadership training camp gives high school-aged students the tools to succeed
and grow in the Christian faith, as well as provide skills to serve as Christian leaders at
camp and in the community. Looking for more hands-on leadership experience than
this leadership week? Apply to be a Youth Servant Leader (YSL)! YSLs assist counselors
in providing for the physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being of campers. Leadership
Training is mandatory for those applying to serve as a YSL. If you have completed your
freshman year of high school or are at least 15 years old by June, you can become a YSL
this summer by completing the application found at www.campomega.org/youth-
servant-leader-program. Get ready to make a difference.
