Spend a Day Camping Indoors

“Camp Day Out” is a free family-fun event that Emerging HOPE has hosted over the last eight years. The purpose of the event is to inform urban families with youth (ages 5-18) of camping opportunities that are available to their children. The event consist of on-site camp registration, free summer camp scholarships, music, door prizes, face painting, and other fun activities. Parents and youth have an opportunity to meet 1:1 with camp directors from an array of camps to learn about their programs.

We believe that urban youth may benefit from camp activities that emphasize socialization, character development, effective communication skills, problem-solving, and decision-making. The impact of camp programs is far-reaching and touches the entire family. Summer camp can be one of the most rewarding, unforgettable experiences in a child’s life. Camp provides children with a community of caring mentors who provide experiential education that leads to self-respect and appreciation for life. All of the outcomes—friendships, overcoming challenges, staying healthy and building character— prepare them for bigger, brighter lives down the road. In addition to great friendships and enduring memories, many important life skills are learned at camp.

Thank you for partnering with us to give your kids an experience that they will treasure for years to come?
