Question – What are the lodging accommodations?

Answer – Wi-Ne-Ma is a Christian Camp that has bunkhouse cabins. We typically try to put only 6 – 8 people in each cabin, but most can sleep up to 10. We try to avoid utilizing the top bunks as much as possible.

Question – Do I need to bring bedding?

Answer – This is primarily a youth camp with standard-sized twin beds.  Each bed has a mattress, you are responsible for all bedding. If you would like additional comfort, consider a bed topper.

Question – Is there RV parking?

Answer – Unfortunatly we do not have addtional RV parking for this event. You can contact the camp to purchas something extra if they have the space. If you do choose to go this route, you will still have to pay the full price for SIS. We can not offer discounts if you decide to purchas a site through the camp its self. 

Question – Could I request a specific room or roommate(s)?

Answer– Yes, we allow you to request lodging with up to six (6) others when you register online; we will do our best to accommodate either request. 

Question – May I bring my companion dog/pet?

Answer – We are sorry, the camp rules do not allow animals.

Question – What kind of food can I expect on the menu?

Answer – The meals are pretty generic cafeteria-style; the camp kitchen staff offers limited options.
