WESTWIND WEEKEND
MUSIC & DANCE CAMP
Here's what you need to know about attending Westwind Weekend
Dates for Westwind this year are May 1-3, 2026.
​
​The registration page of the website, and the downloadable PDF registration form, will be made available starting on February 23rd.

. . .
Westwind Weekend is located on the Oregon coast just north of Lincoln City, near the mouth of the Salmon River.
Camp begins Friday evening (arrival between 5:30 and 7:30 pm). There is an optional arrival time Saturday morning, 9:00 to 10:00 am. Departure is on Sunday at 2:00pm. Campers will arrive and depart by driving through the Westwind gate and parking in a field. From there campers will walk approximately 2 miles along a flat forested road to reach the main lodge. Luggage will be transported for you by the Camp Westwind staff. We will arrange vehicle transport for people with limited mobility.
Sleeping accommodations are shared cabins or tents.
No pets allowed.
Food is lacto-ovo vegetarian.
Due to increased costs from the host camp, we have had to raise the prices slightly from last year. However in an effort to make Westwind more affordable for families, we have also lowered the cost for Children and Teens, and condensed those into a single fee. So the 2026 rates for Westwind Weekend are:
Adults $225
Youth (17 and under) $65
This covers all food and lodging for the entire weekend.

Community Health Guidelines
​
We are taking a personal responsibility and courtesy-to-others approach to COVID, the flu, and other transmissible diseases.
Vaccination
-
We recommend that all campers have up-to-date vaccinations, including boosters, but we will not require it.
​​
Testing
-
We strongly recommend that all campers confirm they are COVID-negative by taking a test within the 48 hours before camp begins.
-
Bring at least one unused test kit with you to camp so you can self-test at camp if needed.
​​
Masking
-
We will not be requiring masks; however all campers are welcome to wear masks at their own discretion.
-
If you would prefer to sleep in a cabin with others who will be wearing masks while at Westwind, you may indicate so on your registration form. Depending on numbers, we may able to arrange a dedicated cabin for cautious or immuno-compromised campers.
​
Prior to Camp
-
If you know you’ve been exposed or are likely to have been exposed to COVID – or any other diseases such as the flu – please do not come to camp.
-
If you have symptoms or test positive in the week prior to camp, do not come to camp.
-
Anyone who is unable to come to camp due to testing positive for COVID or catching the flu will be offered a full refund.
​
While at Camp
-
Wash hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds or use hand sanitizer.

Self-test if you have symptoms; if you test positive, self-quarantine and contact the Westwind Staff.

SLEEPING ACCOMMODATIONS at Westwind
Cabin users: We encourage you to register in groups (families and/or friends) and provide the names of others with whom you have agreed to share a cabin. This will be your “cabin group”. Cabin groups of 5 or more people may have their own cabin, or may be asked to share with 1 or 2 additional people. If you are solo, a couple, or a group of 3 or 4 people, we will assign you to a cabin with others, while keeping the number of people per cabin as small as possible.
Cabin selection: Please indicate your preferred cabin area (see map) on the registration form. If you prefer specific cabins, list them on the registration form in the field “Anything else we need to know.” We will do our best to accommodate your preferences. Specific cabin assignments will be posted when you arrive at camp.
The cabins shown above (see map) will be available to us. The number indicates how many beds in each (bunks, usually 5 down, 4 up).
