What was the best thing about your time at Camp Onas?
"The friends I met. Everyone I met at Onas have become my best friends and we've become more like siblings than anything else, probably because we lived together."

ONE WEEK SESSIONS FOR 7, 8 AND 9 YEAR OLD CAMPERS
These sessions are designed to give younger campers a full camp experience within a week. Campers staying one week will live together in the same unit (one each for boys and girls) but will be integrated into the camp community for all other activities. An experienced senior counselor will guide them through their week to make sure that they sample all that Onas has to offer and leave wanting to come back for more. Call Camp Onas for more details.
First Session Week 1A: June 24-July 1
Third Session Week 3A: July 22-July 29
Third Session Week 3B (if needed): July 29-August 4
For more information about arrival and departure times see the Parent Handbook, page 15.

PREPARATION
We welcome your child to Camp Onas. We look forward to an enjoyable, funfilled summer for everyone. Living in a camp community requires guidelines which aid us in creating a happy, safe and satisfying camp experience for all. Years of experience indicate that our few simple guidelines are practical, and many hundreds of youngsters in the past have found them to be the best way to live and play at Camp Onas. Please browse through the Parent Handbook to help prepare your camper for Onas. The Handbook will also be sent with your final bill. We have included all the forms you will need to prepare your camper on this page.
