Dietary Accommodations
Restaurant operations works to ensure that dietary needs are met. If a participant requires specific dietary accommodations (e.g. for medical reasons or cultural considerations), please ask them to submit the Food Allergy & Special Dietary Needs Request Form no less than 4 weeks prior to check-in. This time is essential for our operation and kitchen teams to accommodate the request.
All submissions received after the 4-week window are handled on a case-by-case basis to determine achievability.
If you or any of the camp/event participants have questions related to dietary accommodations options, please contact Brian Vetter, bvetter@UWM.edu, 414-229-2525
