Camp Hanover Day Camp

For Children Entering Grades 1 Through 6

Days packed with fun and home in time for dinner! Day Camp offers children and families the same community building and faith development benefits available in our overnight camps.

Registration Opens Soon

2025 campers can sign up starting October 8 using a password they received by email. Registration opens to the public on October 15. 

No Two Weeks Are The Same

Each group of campers has a hand in designing what the week will look like. This “small group model” is a signature aspect of the Camp Hanover experience. Campers in a group work together to create their week’s schedule. They might choose crafts and field games in the morning with an afternoon of swimming and archery. The next day could be paddle-boarding and the mud slide followed by a nature hike. View the activities available at Camp Hanover. 

Guided by our staff, campers gain independence and a sense of ownership of their experience, all while learning about the give and take that is a hallmark of Christian community. Groups also spend time each day in engaging Bible study and meaningful worship, as they explore faith related topics in age-appropriate ways.

Our Staff

The foundation of our exceptional program starts with dedicated staff. We seek out fun, caring, and creative young adults who are passionate about spending time with children and affirming them for their uniqueness as Children of God.

Day Camp staff undergo rigorous screening, including face-to-face interviews, background checks, and personal reference verification. Prior to the arrival of campers, Day Camp staff complete a minimum of 12 days of orientation and training in all aspects of summer camp leadership. And since caring for the safety and well-being of your camper is paramount, all staff are trained in CPR and First Aid.

2026 Session Dates

Seven sessions of Day Camp are available. Each session begins on a Monday and ends on a Friday. Families may register for as many sessions as needed. If your camper will be a first grader, second grader, or third grader in 2026-2027, register for Winger Day Camp. If your camper will be in fourth, fifth, or sixth grade in 2026-2027, register for Junior Day Camp.

Registration opens October 15 for the public. 2025 campers may register now using the password emailed to them.

Camp rates will increase January 1, 2026. Register early to lock in current prices.

Why Three Rates?

Thanks to the mission funding we receive from churches and individuals who value Camp Hanover’s ministry, we can offer three rates. The full rate reflects the true cost of camp, what it actually costs Camp Hanover to provide a camp experience per camper. With the partially subsidized and fully subsidized rates, donor contributions offset the reduced price families pay. You choose what rate is most comfortable for you. You can learn more about our flexible pricing here or call us at (804) 779-2811.

The weekly fee includes all activities, lunch, and two snacks.

Extended drop off and pick up times are available for an additional fee.  Choose early arrival (beginning at 7:30 a.m.) or later departure (up to 5:30 p.m.) or both.
