Greetings DREAM Families!
Registration for our 2024 Camp DREAM overnight sessions is OPEN! Camp DREAM is DREAM’s environmental-focused adventure base in northern VT and offers numerous opportunities for DREAMers to play, explore, learn and grow.
We have an exciting lineup of sessions for you to choose from. Our camp sessions are designed with the whole camper in mind and are available to youth currently enrolled in DREAM (High School Guided Mentoring, Afterschool Enrichment, Village Mentoring, Summer Enrichment) and age 8 or older by their session start date.
This summer, sessions will be extended to 10 days. We will have one shorter session for Vermont campers who are new to camp and want to try it out (Session 3). Instead of providing themed sessions this year, we will be incorporating activities from past themed weeks into every session. Campers each session will have the opportunity to create nature crafts, visit the Camp animals, perform in a talent show, play and learn at the waterfront, bike on Camp trails, and so much more!
We employ and train a team of caring and skilled Camp Counselors and other support staff. We also engage in numerous program partnerships to ensure that your child receives outstanding program instruction from skilled professionals. This summer we are proud to partner with The 4H Club through the UVM Extension and Crow's Path.
This will be a summer to remember for your child!

Accessibility & Inclusion:
DREAM is committed to dismantling systems of oppression that affect marginalized people and communities. We strive to make summer camp as accessible, safe, and inclusive as possible. DREAM is committed to ensuring that finances are not a barrier for children to experience the magic of overnight camp. All sessions are offered at no charge to the families in our organization. If you have questions or concerns about how we can best support your camper, please contact us at campdream@dreamprogram.org. If you would like to donate to support our work, you can contribute here.
Land Acknowledgement
DREAM acknowledges the sacred land where we work, live, teach, learn, and build community, which has been a site of human activity for over 10,000 years. Camp DREAM is on land that has been stewarded for hundreds of generations by Native Peoples, specifically the western Abénaki. We are grateful to have the opportunity to live, work and play here, and aspire to address the harm that has been done and continues to be perpetrated against Indigenous people, their land, and water.
Camp Transportation:
DREAM will provide transportation to and from Camp DREAM if requested. We also welcome families assisting our efforts by providing their own transportation.
