It's Tradition!
Everything you need to know about summer themes, the Alpha Omega rivalry, and more camp traditions!
“You keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on you, because he trusts in you.”
Isaiah 26:3 ESV
Summer 2026 Theme
stay tuned
Camp is one of the rare places where the volume of the world gets turned down. Phones are put away, schedules are simpler, and distractions are limited, giving us the space to tune in to Jesus.
This summer, we are inviting campers to “Stay Tuned.” Those words are more than just a phrase. They are a call to pay attention, stay connected, and focus on what matters most. Just like a television network uses the phrase to hold our attention for an important message, we hope campers will lean in, tune out the noise, and listen for God throughout the week.
Alpha Vs. Omega
The greatest tradition of T Bar M Camps – Alpha and Omega teams!
How does it work?
Camp is split into two big teams. If you are a first-time camper, you will be able to select whether you want to be either an Alpha (the red team) or an Omega (the blue team) as a part of your camp registration process. And know this – once you are assigned a team, you will be on that team for life!
How does this impact your camper?
STEP ONE: Check online to see which team your camper is on (see the video below if you don't know).
STEP TWO: Pack a few items for your camper that represent their team color: Red for Alphas | Blue for Omegas
PLEASE NOTE: (1) Every cabin/group includes a mixture of both Alpha campers and Omega campers. (2) Your assigned team does not affect friend requests.
