Frequently Asked Questions For Camp Del-Haven
What is Del-Haven all about?
Camp Del-Haven is a non-profit organization that has been providing free camping to children for over 70 years. Any child between the ages of 6 and 12 is welcome to attend camp. Because our organization is sponsored by various churches and individuals who are interested in the work, there is no charge for your child to attend camp.
The camp program is run by a well-trained group of volunteers who have dedicated their time and skills toward providing a wonderful week of camp for your child. The camp is recognized by the state and federal government as a non-profit Christian ministry that is run by a local board of directors who are also involved in the work.
