Sportrijk Ommen
Drop
Reception
Tonight we are organising a cool drop-off! Would you like to join? Then read the following VERY CAREFULLY!
- Each group MUST have at least one supervisor aged 18 or over!
- From the moment of departure until your return to the park, you must wear a reflective safety vest. No vest = no participation!! Safety first!
Don't have enough vests? Email animatie@ommerland.nl to let us know how many vests you need (after confirmation by email, you will receive them at the start of the drop-off location). You must return your vest to the Chill Out upon your return.
- As a group, you must arrange for a driver(s) to drop you off. Cars may NOT be left at the drop-off location.
- Do not walk along the railway tracks or on private property and be mindful of noise levels/quiet areas.
- It is prohibited to walk along provincial roads and motorways.
- Do not walk in the middle of roads; walk along the road/verge as much as possible and keep a close eye on safety.
- You may bring your mobile phone, and a torch is also very useful also for visibility to road users. If you want to make it a simple walk, you can turn on the GPS on your phone, but then the whole idea of the drop-off is lost, of course.
- You must provide your own food and drink for the journey. Alcohol and narcotics are not permitted. If we suspect that you have been drinking alcohol or find it in your bag, we will exclude you from participation.
- We will only pick people up in emergencies. You will be dropped off 6-8 kilometres away. In the fastest case, you will be back within 1.5 hours, but if you have a poor sense of direction, it will take a little longer. ;)
- Participation is entirely at your own risk.
Want to participate as a group? Have one person register everyone at the same time.
At 8:45 p.m., we will gather in our cars at the reception area. The first car will be just in front of the exit barrier. Please line up behind each other and keep as far to the right as possible so that we can let other park guests pass before we leave. We will drive in convoy to the drop-off location.
At the drop-off location, we'll check who's there and go over any last important stuff. Small groups or individual participants can join up (if they want). Minors always need to bring an adult guardian or let Nic know by noon if they can join an existing group.
Let's make this another successful drop-off together! And once again, don't forget your safety vest!
Do you have any questions? Send an email to animatie@ommerland.nl or speak to Nic from Recreation/Chill Out.

Gel Blaster Battle 8-14 years
The Paintball Arena
Shoot at each other with water-based gel balls and experience a battle to remember.
The guns are electrically powered and shoot so far and powerfully that you feel you are being hit but just well enough that you do not bruise. A mix of laser game, paintball and airsoft but with water balls.
- Participation in this time block only for kids from 8- to 14 years old.
- Registration obligatory from 2 days in advance until 2 hours in advance. One registration per child!
- Participation is free with one filled hopper.
- Run out of balls? For €1 you can get a refill within your time block. Payment cash or pin on the spot.
- In case of rain, this activity unfortunately cannot take place/will be stopped immediately due to the electric guns.
It is advisable to wear long clothing, such as long trousers and a long-sleeved shirt. The water gel balls that land on your clothes will feel less intense than if they hit bare arms or legs. This can be particularly pleasant for the youngest and most sensitive children. Long clothing provides some extra protection and often makes the activity more comfortable, so that everyone can join in with greater enjoyment.
