Feel free to get in touch with us regarding registration or for more information about Vivekananda Family Camp.
All attendees of Vivekananda Family Camp are required to stay for the full week that Camp is in session. Camp Registrar must approve, in advance of registration, any exception to this requirement.
Children / Campers
Child attendees (also referred to as campers) are typically of age 5 to 17 who range from grades 1 through 12.
If a child attendee is under age 8, at least one parent must attend camp as well.
We encourage at least one parent, grandparent, aunt/uncle to attend Camp along with the child.
However, a child may attend Camp without a parent, grandparent, or aunt/uncle if the child is age 8 or above and is comfortable staying for the whole week.
Adults / Volunteers
Adult attendees (also referred to as volunteers) are typically parents, grandparents, aunts/uncles of child attendees.
An adult who is not related to any child attendees and of age 25 or above may attend Camp if that adult will serve as guardian for those child attendees. That guardian must obtain permission to act as guardian from the parents of the child attendees.
Adult attendees may be Vivekananda Family Camp staff.
Previous child attendees of at least 3 years and have completed at least first year of college may also attend, with approval of Camp Registrar, as Junior Volunteers. Junior volunteers are expected to help with planning Camp and help with running the exciting activities during Camp.
