Over twelve years ago, a committee of concerned men and women came together to develop what is now known as Camp Dreamcatcher. The mission of Camp Dreamcatcher is:
Camp Dreamcatcher offers the children a safe, supportive and nurturing place to express their feelings of fear, sadness and anger, with adults who understand, and with children who may share their burdens. The largest program offered by Camp Dreamcatcher is a one-week therapeutic and educational camp held on the grounds of a camp in southern Chester County.
A total of 280 counselors, medical staff, professionals and community members will volunteer over 12,500 hours of service to make the week an unforgettable one for everyone involved. My deepest appreciation goes out to all of these wonderful folks!! If you would like to be part of this life changing experience, please click on forms and complete an application as soon as possible and mail it or fax it into our office. The mandatory counselor training will be held June 14th & 15th on the grounds of Camp Saginaw.
