Camp Daggett on Walloon Lake - Northern Michigan Camp

Camp Daggett offers eight one-week coed camping sessions starting in mid-June and ending in mid-August. Campers range in age from 7 through 14 years. They are housed in rustic cabins designed for 10 campers and two staff members. The program answers a child's search for adventure in an environment that is upbeat and wholesome.

Camp Daggett Summer Camp Applications may be picked up at area schools and local Chambers of Commerce beginning mid-afternoon on Monday, January 4, 2010.

You may also print the 2010 Summer Camp Application. Fill out the application and mail it in with your deposit. (This form requires Adobe Reader - free download.) Registration is done on a first come, first served basis. Please do not hesitate to send in your application; camp fills up in a matter of weeks. Camp Daggett registers camper applications according to the postmarked date stamped on the applicant envelope. It is not our policy to accept faxed applications.

The Board of Trustees, Camp Daggett's governing body, maintains a scholarship fund to cover fees for some underprivileged children. Places are also reserved for children with special needs who are mainstreamed into various camp activities.

Please do not hesitate to call if you need assistance. There are eligibility requirements.

Camper Arrival is Sunday 3:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m.

Our gates will open at exactly 3:00 p.m. so you can then begin the camper registration process. Our camp staff will help guide you to a parking spot at that time. If weather allows, the camper registration process will start at our recreation field; in the case of rain or other inclement weather, the registration process will begin in our recreation building. (If your child is participating in one of the wilderness adventure programs, he or she would register in our adventure center.)

Traditional Summer Camp – Ages 7-14
One-week session, per camper

Morning
Before breakfast each day campers have the option of taking part in one of two activities:

• The Polar Bear Club - A quick, refreshing dip in Walloon Lake
• Early Morning Recreation - A rousing game of kickball or soccer

Parents & Guardians: Please assist your camper(s) when packing for camp. We rely on your supervision to ensure the appropriate items and clothing articles are selected. Please label everything!

All sessions will offer campers an exciting opportunity to challenge themselves and learn new skills in a wilderness setting. Each will begin with a day and a half on our challenge ropes course in order to increase the campers' self-confidence and improve their communication and teamwork skills. The group will then put their new found skills to the test as they head off on one of three fun and exciting wilderness adventures.
