With the 2023 camp season quickly approaching, we would like to issue a few reminders that will help to answer questions and make the transition into camp run as smoothly as possible.
- All families should have received our email containing the instructions for completing your camper forms. All the forms need to be submitted by May 15. If your doctor cannot schedule the physical exam until after May 15, that is OK, but please complete the health history form ASAP. We read every form in its entirety, and the information helps us provide a fun and healthy summer for each camper. Please be diligent in filling them out.
- If your son will be using any daily medication in pill form, please note the due dates for CampMeds, a prepackaged medication service. (May 19 for first session and eight-week campers, and June 17 for second session campers.) This information can be found with the rest of the online forms at the link above.
- Camp must have a copy of all prescriptions and doctor’s orders for all medications distributed at camp. The good news is that all prescription medicines fulfilled by CampMeds will arrive at camp with the prescription attached, so there is nothing additional for you to do. However, for all regularly scheduled medications (including over the counter medicines and melatonin), you must have your doctor complete and fax to camp the Doctor’s Orders Form (available in your CampInTouch account). Also, for prescription medications that CampMeds cannot fill (epi-pens, albuterol inhalers, etc.), the medication must be sent to camp with the prescription label attached.
- Please make travel arrangements as early as possible. If you are using the Official Travel Agency of Camp Nebagamon, Travel One, contact them at 952-854-2551.
Please call the camp office at 715-374-2275 if you have any questions!
This year’s camp forms are ready online. To access these forms you may login here.
A printed Parent Handbook, the official camp t-shirt and official yellow Nebagamon luggage tags will be in the mail this month to all camp families. If you have any questions in the meantime about getting ready for camp, please don’t hesitate to contact us via email at [email protected] or give us a call at 715-374-2275.

Luggage Tags:
These should be firmly attached to every bag a camper brings with him, whether it is being checked in, carried on an airplane, or taken on the Chicago bus. This applies to everyone, regardless of airline or travel arrangements to camp. It is important that we, and airline personnel, are able to identify all baggage by the yellow Camp Nebagamon tags.
Duffle Bags/Luggage:
All Airlines: Please pre-pay baggage fees for your son’s return flight. (Please note that if for some reason the airline does not allow you to pre-pay, we will pay the fees on the return trip and charge your son’s spending money account.)
If you need to ship bags to camp, please notify Briggs ahead of time and send them at least one week prior to your son’s arrival at camp. Camp’s physical address (needed for any UPS/FedEx deliveries) is 11454 Camp Nebagamon Dr, Lake Nebagamon, WI 54849. Please note that if you also want the luggage shipped home at the end of the camp season, it is simplest for our office (and our local UPS & FedEx drivers) if you can mail to Briggs’s attention at camp ([email protected]) completed FedEx/UPS tags or forms. (Please note that due to limited storage space at camp, and our arrangement with the MSP airport, we do urge you to check bags on the trip home if possible, especially on Delta Airlines.)
Campers traveling via airplane:
If you are booking your tickets through our travel agent, Travel One, any questions about airline tickets should be directed to Travel One at 800-245-1111. Travel One issues electronic tickets for each camper, so do not worry about receiving a paper ticket for your child. If you are arranging travel independently, please submit the information via the online transportation form.
