The Claggett Center offers week-long, residential, camp programs for youth completing 2nd grade to recently-graduated high school seniors. Whether climbing high on the ropes course or diving deep at the pool, there's something for everyone here at Claggett. From adventures on the Monocacy River and Sugarloaf Mountain, to swimming, games, campfires and classic skits, campers are sure to create new friendships and renew old ones year after year.
Summer Camps at Claggett are Christian formation ministries of the Episcopal Dioceses of Maryland and Washington. Camp is grounded in Scripture and tradition, and encourages campers and staff to use their whole selves as ways to explore the Christian Story. Each week a chaplain participates in all camp activities, and supports the ministry of camp through prayer, participation and spiritual direction.
COVID-19 will still be a reality in summer 2025. In order to prioritize the safety of campers and staff, every member of the community will be asked to make sacrifices of personal preference and comfort. Staff will be asked to sign a covenant agreeing to abide by and create a culture of safety which may include measures such as: social distancing in and outside of camp property, masking, limiting contact as directed by our supervising physician and health team. Additional policies and/or changes may be made as we get closer to the season and assess the current health situation around the time. As of May 2021, all camp staff and volunteers are required to be fully vaccinated against COVID-19.

Thank you for your support of our Summer Camp programs! We welcome your support of our campers in need by making a donation to the camp scholarship fund.
Claggett Camps use a “Tiered Pricing” system! Tiered pricing allows families to choose a contribution according to their ability. Each pricing tier entitles the camper to a full Claggett experience and there is no differentiation made in the program based on pricing tier. The tiered pricing model is a tool to extend our reach, create a diverse, Christ-centered community, and grow Claggett’s camp ministries for many years into the future.
Tiered pricing helps to make a quality camp experience possible for children from all economic backgrounds, by allowing families to pay what they are able and inviting those who can give more to support the bigger picture of camp operations to do so. It allows us to stretch scholarship funding further, bringing more young people the opportunity to have a life-changing week at Claggett.
Pricing for 2025 Youth Camps is as follows:
Our mission is that no child would be unable to participate in Claggett camps due to financial need. Scholarships are available for all camps through the Rev. Bill Fallowfield Scholarship Fund. Please contact Beau Bryant for details.
Discounts available for multiple children from the same family. These are automatically applied in online registration.
Episcopal Clergy and Diocesan Staff Members are eligible for discounted camp registration. Contact Programs Coordinator Beau Bryant, for more information about scholarships and discounts.
Powell Hall and Cottages: Stay together in summer camp central! Each family will have exclusive use of a dormitory and bathroom, or the appropriate number of double cottage rooms and a bathroom shared by family members.
Christiane Inn: Limited double rooms are available in the Christiane Inn. Includes private ensuite bathroom and linen service.
We believe that summer camp has the power to change lives, through even one week in a community that loves and supports one another unconditionally. Further, we believe that these life-changing camp experiences are for campers and staff members of every race, socioeconomic status, sexual orientation, gender identity, and background. We believe that every person is created in the image of God, exactly as they are, with experiences and perspectives that are precious to God.
