Answers to Common Camp Questions




Is there transportation available? Potentially! Contact your local staff www.northlandfca.org
In Wisconsin, there are busses that leave from the Eau Claire, Marshfield, and Wausau areas! Capacity is limited.


Are there partial scholarships available? Yes! Almost all FCA areas have a scholarship code. Search for staff here: www.northlandfca.org


What time does camp start and end? On Tuesday June 28th campers can check in between 11am and 1pm. Eat lunch before arrival or pack a lunch as the cafeteria is not open to campers until Supper on Day 1.
Camp wraps up at 3:33pm on Friday July 1st. Specific locations will be emailed to camper parents ahead of camp.


Can I make a roommate request? Roommate requests are optional. We allow a single roommate request, with conditions. You may request ONE roommate, of the same gender, same sport, and within one grade level. We encourage campers and parents to consider that for decades we have not allowed roommate requests for logistical and social reasons. It has been a great opportunity for athletes to form fast friendships with new kids.


 Campers will stay in air-conditioned dorms near their age and gender appropriate huddle group. Friends from home will not be far away! We promise a welcoming/comforting environment as soon as your child steps on campus.

What do I do if my child has dietary restrictions/concerns? The University’s cafeteria provides a variety of foods for each meal, with descriptions posted. Most dietary restrictions have been taken into account and almost any diet can easily be met. Campers should communicate any unique issues to FCA Staff.


My child has prescription medication. How is that handled?  Upon arrival, during registration, will need to talk to the Camp Nurse. Campers should pack pills to have easy access for the nurse to log. All medications need to be in a clearly identifiable bottle with name, correct dosing, and bring only the amount needed for camp. (This does not apply for “as needed” medications such as ibuprofen etc).


Can my child use their phone during camp? Cell phone use throughout camp will be discouraged. Just like school, campers will be expected to lock phones in their rooms to fully engage in practices, huddle meetings, and the evening program. Campers will be able to call home if needed during free times and anytime they need.


Does my athlete need to bring any of their own equipment?  Potentially! A basic list of the equipment your athlete needs to bring can be found by clicking  HERE.
