Site
University of Saint Thomas - O'Shaughnessy Stadium
Built in 1947, this 5,000-seat outdoor stadium is home to the Saint Thomas Football and Track teams. The all-weather, Olympic-caliber track has eight lanes and was resurfaced in 2004. A state-of-the-art synthetic turf surface was also installed in 2004. Adjacent to the stadium is the North Athletic Field, a collegiate baseball diamond, which doubles as a football practice area and a throwing venue for track and field.
Camp meals are provided by the Saint Thomas facility chef. Each meal includes a variety of options including vegetarian. One evening will feature a special event with members of the Minnesota Swarm.
