This year, campers will learnwhat a New Hope really means.
Using Biblical stories, campers willexplore what our living hope is and
how we can share it with others.
Alphas and Omegas willgather in a Great Feast on Thursday evening. This medieval-style banquet, the most anticipated event of the week, includes costumes, dinner, games, humor, and dancing.
Creating a community of believers at camp is what we are all about. Donegal campers will enjoy the experience of being divided into the Alpha or Omega teams. Campers will join with their fellow Padawans to learn cheers, songs, and encourage one another on to victory at the end of the week. Campers will develop a connection to their team - this will be a new tradition that campers will enjoy over the years!
“Guide me in your truth and teach me,for you are God my Savior, and my hope is in you all day long.”
- Psalm 25:5

This year, Camp Donegal is once again utilizing tiered pricing. The idea behind it is simple: Summer camp has great value in
the life of a child. At Camp Donegal, we want to enable any child or youth who wants to
come to cam to do so regardless o financial ability or uncertainty. Camp Donegal works hard to keep camp affordable. However, as with most
other aspects of life, the costs to run a quality camp are constantly on the rise. This pricing does not
in uence the ualit o the cam ex erience or an child attending camp.
TIER 1: oes not re ect the true cost o o erating our summer camp programs but is available to ensure that
no camper gets left behind. This tier relies heavily on Presbytery subsidy and donations to cover the
remaining ex enses
TIER 2: llows us to o set some o our ex enses but results in less revenue than needed to
maintain a balanced budget and continue im ro ing the cam er ex erience
TIER 3: More closely accounts for the truecosts of camp.
We appreciate any family or individual who would like to donate beyond their tier ’s pricing. Although it is up to you to decide what you can afford to pay toward
your child’s camp experience, please consider selecting the highest price your family is able
to afford. By doing so, you’ll not only help cover the true cost of running camp, but also protect every
child’s opportunity to meet Christ at camp!
