Register for Camp

Registration for our 2025 camps is now open!

In 2025, we’re offering 2 weeks of camp:

NorCal: June 22 - 28 at Camp Ross Relles

SoCal: July 13 - 19 at Camp Marcil

Camp Omni blends world-class science and critical thinking with the traditional, all-American outdoor camp experience to create a community based on our shared values.

All sessions are sleep-away experiences for children aged 8-17. Those between ages 15-17 will be a part of our Leadership Track.

Cabin groups are assigned based on age and/or gender selection. By default, campers are put in a gender-inclusive cabin. We default to gender-inclusive cabins in order to create an inclusive environment that reflects our values as a community. You have the option to opt into a gender-segregated cabin (girls only or boys only) at registration.

Please note that we will be implementing straightforward precautions to reduce potential spread of infectious disease within our camp population, including requiring vaccination against COVID-19 from all camp attendees.

Paying for Camp

We recognize that families have different abilities to pay, and therefore offer several pricing tiers for one week of camp. Each pricing tier gets your camper a great week of camp

  • Golden Arrow Tier: $2,400.00 ($2,349.00 before Feb 14) A great time at camp, plus 8x10 framed camp photo, 2 adult t-shirts, a one-on-one call with a board member

  • Silver Arrow Tier: $1,300.00 ($1,249.00 before Feb 14) A great time at camp, plus 8x10 camp photo OR 1 adult t-shirt

  • Bronze Arrow Tier: $1,200.00 ($1,149.00 before Feb 14) Full cost of a great time at camp

  • Red Circle Tier: $1,100.00 ($1,049.00 before Feb 14) A great time at camp

  • Blue Circle Tier: $1,050.00 ($999.00 before Feb 14) A great time at camp

Our Circle tiers are subsidized by supporters. The Bronze Arrow Tier represents the actual cost of camp. Registration includes food, program expenses, t-shirts, and more. All children receive the same camp experience.

Financial Aid

Thanks to the generous support of the freethought community, and the Helen Kagin Memorial Fund, financial aid may be available for families that cannot afford the Tier 3 pricing.

Applications are evaluated on a first come, first served basis, while funds remain. If you’d like to apply for financial aid – simply fill out the financial aid application during registration time.

Special medical needs? We will have a health supervisor at camp with an RN or higher level of training. The health supervisor is prepared to handle medical conditions treatable with oral, topical or inhalable medications which have been under good control medically for at least a month. We can sometimes accommodate a child with medication requiring routine injections – but we evaluate that on a case by case basis. If this is you, please contact the camp registrar who can put you in touch with our medical staff.

Reservation Cancellation

Important: If Camp Omni cancels any resident camp sessions your deposit and any additional payments you have made will be FULLY REFUNDED.

We believe that camp cancellation policies should be simple and fair, with a little room to make judgment calls when special occasions arise.

If you choose to cancel* your reservation on or before April 15th, your deposit will be fully refunded.  If you cancel your reservation after April 15th but before June 15th, your additional payments will be refunded but not your deposit.

We submit final head counts for our resident camps on June 15th. So any cancellations made on or after this date will not be subject to a refund. That being said, our board of directors will review any special scenarios and is willing to make exceptions when appropriate.

* Cancellations must be made via email to registrar@campomni.org.

 

If you have any questions about the registration process, please reach out to the camp registrar.
