Registration is between 2 p.m. and 4 p.m. Monday afternoon.

Camp ends after breakfast at 8 a.m. on Saturday morning. Please plan to pick up your campers between 8 a.m. and 9 a.m. on Saturday.
Please call our office if other arrangements need to be made.

You may also email a camper (include the camper's first and last name in the subject line as well as which camp they are attending - i.e., John Doe | Teen Camp 4) at campermail@northlandcamp.org. Please do not email attachments or pictures. The email will be printed and distributed during the mail call. Please note that campers are unable to respond to emails they receive.
Because of the limited number of phone lines, campers are not permitted to make calls. Parents are asked not to call their children during camp except in an emergency. Cell phones must be turned in at the office upon arrival and will be returned to campers Saturday morning.
-
Use of cell phones by campers is prohibited in most instances. Emergency calls will be directed through the Camp Office. Messages from home will be delivered, if applicable.
Calls concerning safe arrival at Camp should be made to/from a sponsor with your group or the Camp Office.

Parents and pastors should know that our staff is committed to maintaining a professional and conservative dress standard, exemplifying the spirit of modesty and appropriateness in all activities. We ask all our guests, including campers, to be reasonable and conservative in their dress and conduct as well. We reserve the right to request a change in any clothing or behavior deemed inappropriate.
All clothing should come to the knee. Slacks/athletic pants are acceptable. Avoid tank tops. Campers are dressed more recreationally/casually during daytime events. For evening services, we encourage campers to wear their best attire. Several activities are considered extreme, allowing participants to choose dress appropriate for the situation. We expect campers to enjoy the camp experience by feeling as comfortable as possible within these instructions.
-
Girls: Swimsuits should be modest 1-piece bathing suits. A t-shirt and knee-length shorts or a towel or cover-up should be worn while going to and from the swimming area.
Guys: Exposed undergarments are not permitted. Swimsuits should be modest, trunk-type suits.
We require all clothing to be modest and appropriate. Northland reserves the right to ask any camper to change his/her outfit if, in the estimation of the staff, the outfit does not comply with these standards. Please call our office if you have any questions.
-
All meals are included in the price of the camping program. Those on special diets must bring their own necessary supplements. A refrigerator, microwave, and toaster are available to store and prepare special diet foods. Food from a meal served at the Dining Hall may be set aside for a future meal.

Our program is planned with health and safety as priorities. A medical staff member is available 24 hours a day, and certified lifeguards supervise all water activities. Over-the-counter medication is provided by our Health Center. Please do not send medication unless prescribed by a doctor. All medication must be kept in its original labeled containers. For the health and safety of all campers, we request that campers who have contagious conditions or diseases not attend camp. We appreciate your cooperation and understanding in this matter of public health.
Note: All off-site medical expenses will be directed through the camper’s parents’ health insurance policy. Northland does not provide secondary health insurance coverage.

Since safety is a priority, visitors are prohibited while camp is in session. Special exceptions may be granted in advance through the Camp Office.
Please plan to send campers for the entire camp week. Early dismissals are permitted in case of emergency only.
Mark all personal belongings. Junior campers should give money and wallets to counselors for safe-keeping. Lost and Found items are donated one week after the camp week; requested items are returned COD. Northland will not be held responsible for lost, unclaimed, broken, or stolen personal property.
Graduated seniors will be permitted to attend camp for one final summer.
