Virtual Camp Daybreak programming for 2021 will be held from Monday, August 9th through Friday, August 14th.

Yes. We ask that our volunteers and staff be a minimum of 16 years old to attend Camp Daybreak. Applicants who do not meet the age requirement but show a high level of experience, motivation and maturity may still apply.
 

The following relates to when we are back to in-person camp programming. The 2021 session will be 100% virtual from August 9th through August 14th, 2021.

Camp Daybreak and its facilities are able to support 65 volunteers. These volunteers include 40 “Big Siblings” who are charged with supporting one of our 40 campers and 20 counselors who are available to support both our Big Siblings and campers. Counselors are typically returning staff who have at least 3 years of experience. If, for whatever reason, you are unable to secure one of those 65 volunteer positions we do have a waiting list.

Yes, however, the application process for returning volunteers is much less rigorous. Your participation in the application process not only informs us of your interest but helps us to further consider the intent of the Camp Daybreak experience.
 
Please confirm your availability prior to submitting your application.
 

We are going virtual for 2021. If you are interested in participating, please fill out the registration form: 2021 Volunteer Registration

Volunteers who also are meeting community service requirements may use Camp Daybreak to meet those requirements. At the completion of the camp session, if all aspects of the position have been met to satisfaction, volunteers will have earned 168 community service hours. Any documentation must be provided prior to the start of the camp session.
 
Please confirm your availability prior to submitting your application.

The following relates to when we are back to in-person camp programming. The 2021 session will be 100% virtual from August 9th through August 14th, 2021.

Anyone who applies to be a camper or volunteer and is unable to secure a spot for our upcoming session is put on the waiting list. We access the waiting list in the event of a spot becoming available. If this were to occur, you would be contacted by the Camp Daybreak Director. In the past, spots have become available as late as mid-session.
