The year 2015 celebrates 90 years of operation at Camp Daggett! Yes, simply staggering isn’t it? It is incredible to reflect back on its journey through history. However, what is even more special is that though Camp Daggett has changed in appearance over the past nine decades, it has remained the same in regard to its mission and rich tradition. Camp continues to provide meaningful and memorable experiences through its programming for all ages on a year-round basis. If you have attended Camp Daggett as a summer camper, participated in a team-building program, attended one of our special events or contributed in some other special way – we consider you a friend and part of the Camp Daggett Family. By purchasing and displaying this special edition calendar, you are supporting and endorsing Camp Daggett’s motto: “The Other Fellow First.” Throughout each and every season, you are the reason.
