Question 1

What ages of children are welcome at Family Camp?

Accepted Answer

Family Camp welcomes children of all ages, from 0 to 17 years old, including patient campers, siblings, and bereaved campers, to attend alongside their caregivers. Our programs are designed to engage everyone, ensuring fun, meaningful, and safe experiences.

Question 2

Can siblings attend Family Camp?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Family Camp welcomes siblings to attend alongside patient campers, bereaved campers too, and their caregivers.

Question 3

Can grandparents, aunts/uncles, or other family members attend?

Accepted Answer

While we’d love to host extended family, Family Camp is designed for children to attend with up to two primary caregivers. This helps ensure all children are supported and that we can serve as many families as possible.

Question 4

My child was used to attending camp on their own. How does Family Camp work for us?

Accepted Answer

We understand that Family Camp is a change from past summers. Our goal is to make sure every child who wants to attend can still have a camp experience. We are happy to work with each family individually to find the best way for your child to participate. If you have questions or concerns about registration or how the new format will work for your family, please email Nathan Whan, Camp Director at nathan@campquality.org. We will work with you on a case-by-case basis to ensure your child can enjoy camp and make lasting memories.

Question 5

Will there be opportunities to connect with other families?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely! Family Camp is all about connecting with other families who share similar experiences. Families will have many opportunities to interact through:
Family free-choice activities: Enjoy activities together at your own pace.
All-camp activities: Fun experiences where everyone joins in.
Separate time for children and caregivers: Kids enjoy age-appropriate programs while caregivers have a chance to connect with each other.

Question 6

Will my child have the same companion as in previous years?

Accepted Answer

At Family Camp, the focus is on supporting children alongside their caregivers, and cabin and activity assignments are designed to provide a safe, engaging, and balanced experience for all participants. While we do our best to match families with companions who will help them feel comfortable, we cannot guarantee that every child will have the same companion as in previous years. Our experienced volunteers will ensure that each child and family is supported, cheered on, and has a positive experience throughout the week. There will be opportunities throughout the year to see our volunteers at other Camp Quality camper only and family based programs.

Question 7

What type of accommodations are available, and are family units guaranteed their own space?

Accepted Answer

Cabins at camp are shared by at least two families, providing a safe and welcoming environment. Each cabin is equipped with a private bathroom and shower. Families have designated sleeping areas to ensure privacy and comfort.

Question 8

Are meals provided?

Accepted Answer

Yes! Meals at Family Camp are served buffet-style and accommodate a variety of dietary needs. Enjoy nutritious and delicious meals together as a family, with options for both children and adults.

Question 9

Immunizations

Accepted Answer

For the health and safety of all participants, all children and caregivers attending Family Camp must meet Camp Quality’s immunization requirements. These requirements are designed to protect everyone at camp and can be reviewed here.
