❓Questions?
Please let Pastor Anthony know if you need gluten-free food.
If you have a special need, please let us know as soon as possible.

Q: Will there be chaperones?
A: Yes! From New Creation and MNAOG, with completed background checks.

Q: Do we have to drive?
A: No, New Creation will provide transportation with adult drivers.

Q: What if I need financial assistance?
A: At New Creation, we believe every student who desires to attend a church-related event (conference, camp, retreat, trip, etc.) should have the opportunity to do so, regardless of financial situation. We understand that the cost of these events can be a barrier for some families, and we are committed to working with parents/guardians to make sure no student misses out due to finances.

We are offering two forms of assistance:
1) Scholarships (partial or full, based on need)
2) Payment plans (spreading the cost over several months)

We invite you to complete the Financial Assistance Request Form honestly, so we can fairly assess needs and steward the church’s resources wisely. Please know: there is no shame or embarrassment in asking for help — we want every student to have the chance to go! After you complete the form, email anthony@newcreationwoc.org to let Pastor Anthony know.

Q: What if I have a different question?
A: Please email anthony@newcreationwoc.org with any questions.

 Thank you for helping us prepare for a safe, fun, and memorable summer camp experience.
