Frequently Asked Questions

Dayspring does not set a charge for summer campers to attend. All contributions are voluntary. We trust God to provide through campers, parents, and friends of the ministry. If you are able to share in the cost of summer camp, your gift is appreciated. If you cannot, please don’t let that keep your child away. Retreat fees will be listed with each event when announced.

Daycamps are for ages 6–18, Junior Camp for ages 8–12, Junior High Camp for ages 10–14, and Senior Camp for ages 13–17. The Senior Fall Retreat is for ages 13–18. Please contact us if you have a question about eligibility.
