Camping Session Fees

Camping Session Fees are $800 per camper and are due prior to assignment of the camper to a camping session. 

Campership

We encourage you to identify and obtain campership funding from your local community. Sources of sponsorship could include civic organizations such as Lions, Jaycees, Elks, Moose, Rotary, Sororities, and others. You may also apply for a micro-grant from your local EMC, Wal-mart or other retailer. Families with financial hardships may qualify for a partial or total campership from the Camp Dream Foundation. Please, pay as much as you can toward the camping fee and help us raise money for your camper, as funds are very limited. Your honesty is relied upon in paying what you can so that we can help as many people as possible. Make all checks and money orders payable to Camp Dream Foundation, and mail to:
