Please choose the grade your camper will be entering this coming fall. 

If you have registered your camper but need to move them to a different week, you can do so by calling the Timberlake office at 402-757-3207 or emailing us at camp@timberlake.org. As long as we have availability in your desired session, we will be happy to assist with this adjustment. Your payments and deposit will transfer to the new week.

You may cancel your registration at any time. However, in most cases, your deposit is non-refundable. If you cancel at least 24 hours before the start of camp, all payments will be refunded, minus the non-refundable deposit. If you do not cancel your registration before your check-in day, no refund will be issued.

If our camp session is full, you can place your camper on the waiting list. To officially join the waiting list, you will need to submit the camper application through our online registration program. There is no payment or deposit required to be on the waiting list, and you may add your camper to the waiting list for multiple weeks.

If any openings become available in the session, we will contact campers on the waiting list in the order they applied, up until the day camp begins. While we do our best to accommodate as many campers as possible, we cannot guarantee a spot for waitlisted campers unless another camper cancels or changes their camp dates.

For guaranteed placement, we recommend signing up for a camp session with availability while keeping your camper on the waiting list for their preferred dates. If a spot opens up, we can transfer your registration to the preferred date.

At Timberlake, we strive to ensure that all campers can attend camp, regardless of their financial situation. We encourage families to check with their local churches for potential camp scholarship assistance, as several of our member churches offer scholarships.

Timberlake also has generous donors who help make camper scholarships available. To apply for a scholarship, please call or email our office, and we will send you a scholarship application form.

For the Sunday–Tuesday K–3rd Grade Camps, drop-off is on Sunday afternoon, and pick-up is mid-morning on Tuesday.

For the Wednesday–Friday K–3rd Grade Camps, drop-off is late Wednesday afternoon, and pick-up is mid-morning on Friday.

Specific times and procedures will be detailed in the Parent Handbook, available on May 1st. If you need more information, please call or email our office.

In the camper registration portal, you can complete the optional Cabinmate Request Form to request up to two friends as cabinmates. We do our best to honor cabinmate requests, but we typically do not place large groups of friends together. Cabinmates must be of the same gender and attend the same specific session and age group. Horsemanship campers are usually not placed in the same cabins as other campers.

If you need to add or modify a cabinmate request after submitting the Cabinmate Request Form, you may call or email the office no later than one week before check-in, and we will process the change.

If your child has any significant needs (e.g., medical diagnosis, mental health concerns, educational or behavioral needs), we ask that you contact us each year before completing your registration. You can reach us by emailing camp@timberlake.org or calling 402-757-3207. We will work with you to evaluate your child’s situation on a case-by-case, year-by-year basis to determine if Timberlake is the best fit for them. While we desire for every child to experience summer camp, we are not equipped to accommodate some exceptional needs.

You can pre-order a T-shirt for your camper when completing their application. You can also log back into your camper account later to add a T-shirt. To do this, go to the Summary section and click on the blue Add Sessions, Campers, and Options button. Select the session your camper is registered for (indicated by a green checkmark). Under the session details, available options will appear, allowing you to add a T-shirt to your cart.

After adding the T-shirt, be sure to complete the T-shirt Size Form. T-shirts will be available for pre-order until May 1st. If you do not pre-order a T-shirt, some may be available for purchase in the camp store; however, we cannot guarantee that your camper’s size will be in stock.

K-3rd grade campers and day campers do not have a trail ride option.  However, they will get to ride a horse around the arena led by one of our wranglers or horsemanship campers. Their horse ride is included in their camper fee.

Our kitchen can accommodate gluten-free, dairy-free, nut-free, and vegetarian diets. If you would like Timberlake to provide these substitutions, please indicate your requests on your child’s medical form. For dietary restrictions beyond what our kitchen can provide, please contact our office at least two weeks before your child arrives at Timberlake. If we are not contacted in advance, it may not be possible to accommodate special requests.

We provide certified lifeguards, and cabin leaders will be with their campers whenever they are in the swim area. All K-3rd grade campers wear life jackets during swimming and boating times. If you have any additional concerns about your child’s swimming ability, we encourage you to share them in the Camper Experience section of their Camper Information Form.

We suggest spending $5 to $10 per visit to the store. Since K-3rd graders will visit the store once, we recommend adding up to $10.

If you’d like your child to have spending money for the camp store this summer, log in to your camper account. Once logged in, you’ll see a page labeled "View My Registrations." Under the Summer Camp 2025 section, click the blue "View Details" button.

Scroll to the bottom of the page and locate the “Timberlake Camp Store” section. Click the blue “Add Deposit” button to be directed to a page where you can add spending money for each registered child and enter your debit or credit card information to complete the payment.

You can also log in to your camper account during the week to check your camper’s camp store balance and add more funds if needed.
