Camp offers high-quality, healthy, kid-friendly food. For any special dietary needs—including allergies—there is space on our online registration form where you can indicate any such allergies or dietary restrictions. These are then compiled and given to our food service staff. For Adventure Camp, these dietary concerns are also given to the cabin leaders so they can assist the camper.

All medications will need to be checked in with the nurse and must be in original packaging with the doctor’s instructions. The nurse is responsible to administer all medicines at the appropriate time. No medications are allowed in the cabins, the only exceptions are epi pens in cases of severe allergies and inhalers.

You can make a bunk mate request on our online registration form for Adventure Camp. Most campers make a bunk mate request. Please know we will do our best to accommodate all requests but it is virtually impossible to do so. We do honor bunk mate requests for WildSide and FDC under special circumstances, such as a participant being new to camp and coming with a friend.

Your trust in us to provide the best possible camp experience for your child is something we take very seriously. We request that family and friends not visit campers and staff during camp; visiting can often disrupt the camp by dividing our focus and causing homesickness.

Yes you can email your camper. The email address is mail4camp@daybreakcamp.org. Please place your child’s name in the subject line.

Remember, your child will not be able to email you back.

If it is urgent that you talk to your child you can call the office at (831) 335-2756. For after hours calls there will be an emergency cell number given to you in the confirmation email.

In the case of a medical emergency, or if you have any questions or concerns, please call Rich at (831) 335-2756.

Please do not bring cell phones.

Why no cell phones at camp?

Aside from the fact that cell phones are expensive and can get damaged or misplaced in the active, outdoor environment of camp, here’s the real deal: we feel the camp experience is most powerful when campers can retreat from their normal cares, concerns, and routines and the instant communication provided by cell phones makes it difficult to achieve this. Furthermore, communication with home can prevent the camper from being fully present in the camp experience and can prevent staff from quickly addressing problems that may arise with your child, such as homesickness.

As children learn to trust other caring adults, they grow and learn to solve their own challenges. This emerging independence is a great benefit of the camp experience!

If we have any concerns or challenges with your camper, you can rest assured that we will contact you on their behalf.

If campers do bring their phones to camp, we ask they release their phones to us at registration. They’ll spend the week safely locked away and will be returned to campers on the last day of camp.
