Camp FAQs

  • Our color teams are a big part of our recreation aspect of camp! Color teams are divided based on attendance and room assignments. These factors do not allow us to establish teams until a week before the camp you attend. We try our best to get these colors to you so your group can have everything you need to show off your team spirit! Camp coordinators will be notified no earlier than a week before camp and no later than two days before their camp.

  • If your staff or student has a dietary restriction or allergy, please work through your church’s Camp Coordinator to ensure that is communicated. We may be able to make accommodations for gluten-free or gluten-sensitive diets if known two weeks before the start of your camp. At on-site registration in the Rock, please let the camp staff know.  We may not be able to accommodate other restrictions. Those who have restrictions are more than welcome to bring their own food. We have a fridge and microwave in the Dining Center to store and heat their food. The coach or student is responsible for preparing any of these stored foods. 

  • To ensure the safety of all camp attendees, no visitors will be allowed on the campground except credentialed ministers with the Oklahoma Assemblies of God and their spouses. However, ministers must notify the Camp Office of their intent to visit so we can notify Security. We ask that the number of guests accompanying each minister be limited to their spouse. No children will be allowed to visit.

  • No campers will be allowed to leave unless in case of an emergency or pre-approved departure. All departures from camp must be approved by camp staff.

    Please notify the Camp Office prior to the student being picked up. If you know before camp, you can fill out the Early Check-Out Form. This form can be turned in at check-in.

    We ask that only the Parent/Guardian on their medical form pick them up.

    To ensure a smooth check-out, please have the student pack up their items and bring them to the camp office before pick up. Please communicate with the parent/guardian and camp office at the pickup time.

    Upon Parent/Guardian arrival, they will be held by the security guard at the gate and escorted to the Camp Office. Parents will need to bring their Driver’s License to the camp office. From there, security will bring the Parent/Guardian and student back up to the gate.

  • All medicine must be checked in to the camp nurse.

    All medications must be in their original containers with the current/correct label.

    Pills sent in Ziplocks or weekly dose containers will not be given.

    Expired medication will not be given.

    All inhalers, nasal sprays, and epi-pens must be in the original box with the prescription label (if the box is unavailable, ask the pharmacy to print a label).

    All medication, vitamins, supplements, and oils must be stored in the First Aid Station.

    All medication, vitamins, supplements, and oils must be administered by the First Aid Staff in the First Aid Station.

    NO MEDICATION, VITAMINS, SUPPLEMENTS, OR OILS WILL BE ADMINISTERED TO MINORS UNLESS LISTED ON THE SIGNED MEDICAL FORM.

    If the parent/guardian lists a dosage for medication that is different from the doctor’s prescribed dosage listed on the bottle, the listed dosage will be administered, and the parent/guardian will assume all responsibility for the changes.

  • Sometimes, when we send out emails, reference forms, staff applications, or medical forms, they get sent to junk mail. Please check your junk mail if these items are not in your primary inbox. You can search for Oklahoma Youth Ministries or Ministry Safe.

  • New this year – Cancellations may only be made up to 10% of your total group registration. Any spots canceled beyond 10% will require the full camp balance to be paid, even if a camper does not fill the spot.

    Changes and cancellations are only to be made by the Group’s Camp Coordinator.

    Changes or cancellations made to your group between Nov 15th - March 20th, will receive a partial refund of $15 per camper. $15 will be nonrefundable at all times.

    Camper deposits of $30 are non-refundable after March 20, 2024.

    No refunds will be given for staff fees.

    Changes or cancellations made to your group between March 20, 2024, and the guaranteed Minimum Deadline will forfeit the $30 deposit but will not be responsible for the remaining balance.
