Family Events
Families that play together, stick together! Join us for some fun in the sun and meet a few of our staff. To stay safe, families will remain in the respective family 'pods' during these events.
Easterseals continues to monitor and follow local, state, and national guidelines in regards to COVID-19. In addition, Easterseals is in close contact with various infectious disease experts through Nebraska Medicine and Visiting Nurse Association. We are currently developing safety protocols, screening processes, and policies as it pertains to each program offered. Due to limitations that COVID-19 presents, Easterseals has adapted its programs in order to safely operate.
What is New for 2021?
- All those who plan to attend, including parents, siblings, friends, etc., must be registered prior to the event. (The registration process will be more simple than our typical camper registration, with minimal information required to register).
- Family Events will be held at various locations.
- In addition to prevent the spread of COVID - 19, parents & caregivers are responsible for their own camper and other children they may bring. We will have very limited staff at Family Events that will be leading activities.
- Adult Campers are welcome to attend with a friend, group home, etc. but anyone coming with the camper must also be registered.
- Pre-screening before camp could be required.
- If for some reason, it is no longer safe to operate Family Events, we will cancel or postpone the event.
- We will gladly refund you if we were to cancel a session or if you choose to not participate at the rescheduled date (ie Family Camp instead of Day Camp).
- Family Camps will be highly subsidized, therefore Tiered Pricing and Camperships are not available for these sessions.

FAMILY EVENT SESSION DESCRIPTIONS
Summer Kick Off
TBD, Omaha
Meet our staff and have some good family fun enjoying therapy dogs, crafts, archery and more! To stay safe, families must remain in their respective family 'pods' during this event.
Although we strive to accept campers of all abilities, unfortunately, we are not able to safely support campers that need a ventilator, 1 on 1 nursing assistance , or those that need a hospital bed. Please let us know if you have any questions pertaining to your camper as we look at each ability level and assistance needs on a case by case basis. Thank you for understanding.
