Students 'Chow Down' at Quartz Mountain

Another 'creature comfort' issue that students and parents tend to have questions about is regarding what the meals will be like while at Quartz Mountain. While snacks are available for purchase in the Institute Store each day and students are welcome to bring snacks (that have been tightly sealed against critters) with them, part of the $2500 scholarship that each student receives for their stay at Quartz Mountain includes three meals a day in the cafe.

Every year, OAI and Quartz Mountain staff make every effort possible to ensure that each student's dietary needs are met, including those needing additional options, such as vegetarians or students with special health needs. We strongly encourage students to review the menus, however, in order to supplement their diet while at camp with any special snacks they may want to bring. If you have a dietary restriction, please let us know as soon as possible, by calling the office at (405) 605-7500.

For the past few years, to help ease students' transitions to camp, we've posted the menus for the two week program online, so students and parents feel more "in the know" about what their experience will be like. This year is no exception! You'll find below a small sample of the Quartz Mountain menu, and can download the entire two week menu as a Word document here.
