Overview
Dads Day / Weekend is a time of outdoor recreation in Prior Lake, MN to build camaraderie and connection between parents of children with heart disease. In 2024, we were excited to offer options to stay overnight at Mystic Lake Casino hotel and play 18 holes at The Meadows golf course!
Choose your own adventure! Dads have the option to attend the entire weekend (Saturday morning to mid-afternoon Sunday), the full day on Saturday, or just golf on Sunday. Camp Odayin covers the costs for all activities, meals, lodging, and tee times for golf.
Any dad of a heart child in 12th grade or younger is eligible to attend Dads Day, even if you or your child have never attended an Odayin program in the past. Camp Odayin welcomes transgender, non-binary, and gender non-conforming parents to attend Dads Day or the Moms Retreat.
Payment & Financial Support
We recognize that families of a child with heart disease manage additional emotional and economic stress. Our Pay-What-You-Can (PWYC) model supports our commitment to make our programs accessible to everyone in our community. There is a $50 registration fee per parent and there is always an option to pay $0. If you have questions on the cost of camp, contact the Camp Odayin office at info@campodayin.org.
If it would be beneficial to your family, we offer transportation support by reimbursing up to $200 for your travel costs. Contact the Camp Odayin office at brooke@campodayin.org for details on the travel cost reimbursement process.
