Camp Info & Policies
Lunch & Snacks: Due to allergy concerns, CSOG does not assume responsibility for providing snacks or lunches for campers.
Please plan on bringing your own or giving your camper money to purchase food at the restaurant (Sali and Tony’s).
- Half-Day Campers: We provide a 10–15 minute break for a snack. At times, the snack break will be during play on the golf course, so please plan an easy-to-eat snack.
- Full Day Campers: We sit down just after 12:00pm to eat lunch for 30–40 minutes.
There are no makeups, refunds, or credits for missing a day or a week.
We will do our best to have your camper attend another day during the summer, but we cannot guarantee it due to limited availability.
If we cancel camp due to weather, you can attend another day of camp.
If the weather brings us in off the course, we do not allow makeups, as we have activities to keep campers entertained and learning.
