Omega Family Week

Check back in March for 2012 workshops

Omega Family Week offers kids and parents something rare: a unique balance of time together and time apart so that everyone can have fun, learn, explore, and make new friends. We invite veteran Family Weekers back to continue in the creation of an extended family, and welcome new families to join us.

Program Structure: Adult workshops and kids' camps meet each morning (9:00 a.m.–noon). Kids' camps meet Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday afternoons (2:30 p.m.–5:00 p.m.). Adult workshops meet Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday afternoons (2:30 p.m.–5:00 p.m.), but do not meet on Tuesday afternoon; instead, the faculty offer sampler workshops in a variety of subjects. In the evenings, everyone comes together for performances and special events.

How to Register: Adults choose one workshop. Kids and teens choose one camp. The Children's Program is available for kids ages 3–5. For parents bringing children under 3, you may register for an R&R retreat. Call Omega at 877.944.2002 to register.

Teens: Teens form an important part of Omega Family Week. Please note that Omega has a 10:00 p.m. noise curfew and that all children and teens are expected to be with their families after 11:00 p.m. (Teen camps fill early. If Omega Family Week is full, please check out Omega Teen Camp.)

Special Guests: David Wilcox and Nance Pettit return as resident bards and practitioners of musical medicine.

If you do not have children: You may still participate in this week, but be advised that almost 200 children are on campus, and Omega services and schedules are geared toward children and their families.

What People are Saying About Omega Family Week

"Omega Family Week is the only vacation we go on and it is the highlight of our year. We love being able to spend quality time together as a family away from TV and computers, and we love being in a healthy environment with other families that share our value systems."

"I learned a lot, laughed a lot, and felt such love. Omega Family Week is a magical time. Omega has created something truly special."

"I attended a workshop during Omega Family Week as a single person. The first day I felt sad and lonely but by the end of the week, I felt like I had a huge family and I would come back during Omega Family Week anytime!"
