What to Expect
What are the facilities like?
Before leaving camp, we recommend that you walk around the campus with your campers to allow them to become familiar with the various different buildings and locations.
Cabins
- Eight cabins (generally used as boys cabins) are located in the lower part of camp.
- In addition to the eight cabins located in the lower part of camp, eight more cabins (usually used as girls cabins) are located on the hillside.

- Cabin 15B is wheel chair accessible from the back entrance.

Other Facilities
- The air-conditioned Dining Hall is located at the center of the camp. This is where all meals are served.
- The air-conditioned chapel has a seating capacity of 100 people. Generally, sermons/messages take place in this chapel.
- The Gymnasium and pool are located on the hill and are wheelchair-accessible.
- All major buildings are wheelchair-accessible, with a sidewalk that extends throughout the camp.
- Dayspring also offers a game room with a foosball table, air hockey, ping pong, a sports locker, an aquatic house with canoes, john boats, and buggy boats. Life jackets are provided and required by state law to be worn by campers aged 12 and younger, and to be in the boat for campers 13+.
- In addition to these buildings and facilities, Dayspring has two docks, two decks, hiking trails, a sports field, basketball and volleyball courts, and a school-aged playground.
What is the schedule like?
The schedule may vary from camp session to camp session but generally, breakfast is served at 8:30 am, lunch at 12:30 pm, and dinner at 5:30 pm. Chapel sessions take place twice a day. Often, campers enjoy a camp fire during the week, weather permitting. Campers typically enjoy organized games, team activities and of course, Scripture memory!
Note: This schedule only applies to our overnight camps.
How should I communicate with my camper?
Communications via phone to Dayspring Bible Camp are limited to only one phone. Because of this, it is requested that only contact your child via phone for emergencies. Do not give your camper a cell phone or other electronic device to have at camp. Any electronic devices will be confiscated and held until the camper is picked up at the end of the session. Campers love letters, postcards, greeting cards, and care packages. Additionally, before camp, you will receive an email with a link to an “Email Form”. Using this form, you can send your camper messages throughout the week that we will print and give them. As always, if you have any questions or special requests, just let us know!
