Our cooks prepare well-balanced vegetarian meals made from fresh ingredients. We also offer gluten free or vegan options.

Due to our kitchen design and constraints, there is always the possibility of cross contamination. We are limited in our ability to accommodate all types of allergies. Therefore, we cannot guarantee that any single menu item is completely free of any other given allergen. If you have Crohn’s disease, Celiac disease, Anaphylactic shock to any food and/or any other serious medical condition to food, please know that we cannot serve you. If you arrive at camp and have one of these conditions, we have the right to ask you to leave camp without refunding you and your cost of going home.

SUMMER CAMP FINANCES

What is the cost of summer camp for youth and/or families?

Camp MiVoden and the Upper Columbia Conference of Seventh-day Adventists (SDA) is dedicated to help everyone who would like to attend camp. The true cost of a week of camp is much higher than what you actually pay. Thanks to the Upper Columbia Conference of SDA the amount each camper pays is significantly less. Any additional funds donated toward the actual cost of camp will go to help make MiVoden available to more people. This can be done during your Ultracamp registration, or go to Donations to give!

Are there discounts? If so what are they? Which camp do they apply to?

If you are a member of the Upper Columbia Conference of Seventh-day Adventist, you receive a $100 discount for all camps.
There is a $20 discount for all campers, if paid in full by January 1 of the year you attend.
There is a $10 sibling discount. After the first camper, each following sibling receives a $10 discount. This is only for Youth and Ultimate camps.
There is a Multi-week discount. This discount is $10 for each additional week that a camper attends. This is only for Youth and Ultimate camps.
Family Campers who RV receive a $35 discount.

Three-way matching Camperships is made up of 3 entities:

1) A third paid by your family.

2) A third paid by a local Church that is part of the Upper Columbia Conference of Seventh-day Adventist.

3) A third covered by Camp MiVoden.

This Campership financial help only applies to Adventurer, Junior and Teen Camps. You must have a document filled out which includes the local Adventist church approving the Campership. Click here for the form.
