Calendar

Camp Blue begins on Sunday, August 16, kicking off an unforgettable week of connection, leadership, and signature experiences designed just for you. The experience will end on Friday, August 21, when you step into a leadership role and help welcome the rest of your incoming first-year class during Move-In Day.

Plan to wear comfortable clothes and supportive shoes all week at Camp Blue. You’ll be moving, exploring, and making the most of every moment. Counselors will communicate any clothing recommendations with the students throughout the week. And don’t forget to pack some gear in your team color (your counselors will reveal your official team color before camp begins) so you’re ready to show your spirit in style. If you don’t already have anything in your team color, don’t stress! We’ll provide everyone with a Camp Blue shirt in their team color.

What does it mean that I am getting a “Team Color?”

Every student will be assigned a specific color that will be their team for the week. Each team will consist of a group of first-year students and 2 student counselors. You will spend the week bonding with your team and completing various activities together.

You will be given three t-shirts to wear throughout camp: one will be of your team color, one for the service day, and one for move-in day. You will also receive a welcome bag.

Student meal plans will be activated upon arrival; if students do not have a Flex or Standard meal plan, students can add a neighborhood plan or add Flyer Express dollars to their account for quick and convenient access to food options on campus. You also have the option to use a credit/debit card for purchases. Learn more by visiting Dining Services. Other meals will be provided throughout the week.

Any accommodations you may need (disability-related, dietary, allergies, physical, visual/audio/technology, other), as well as dietary needs and allergies should be included on the Camp Blue registration form so our team is aware and can best support your experience. If you have questions or would like to talk through accommodations in more detail, please contact the Office of Learning Resources at 937-229-2066 or email orl@udayton.edu.
