Camp Daypoint is a day-camp adventure for children ages 5 to 9. The perfect introduction to camp, Camp Daypoint is non-stop fun in a comforting environment. Small groups, each with two counselors, give children the attention they need during swimming, crafts, hikes, games and other camp activities. Amid all the fun, campers gain independence, discover new skills, meet new friends with diabetes, and learn respect for others and the outdoors. Camp Daypoint also eases the transition to Camp Needlepoint, the residential program.
