What is Angel Tree Camping?

Camp Piankatank is a registered camp with Angel Tree Camping, operated by Prison Fellowship. Angel Tree sponsors campers to attend camp at no cost. Angel Tree camping is a chance for children of incarcerated parents to get away from their daily challenges and have fun in the great outdoors, making new friends and meeting caring adult counselors. Camp Piankatank (like all Angel Tree camps) is a Christian program sharing the Bible and the Gospel with our campers.

Angel Tree campers must be registered with the Angel Tree program and submit their registration in a specific way. 

​

Angel Tree will cover the basic cost of camp. They do not cover optional extras, shirts, care packages, or camp store money. Angel Tree will only sponsor one camp session per summer at one camp. Day camp or overnight camp is permitted.

 

Steps to register:

  1. Check out our camp offerings on the website and select your session of camp.

  2. Begin an online registration and complete all of the steps until the last step (the payment step). 

  3. Call or email Cal Hedeen, Associate Director for Summer Camp at 804-776-9552 or cal.hedeen@camppiankatank.org. Tell Cal that you are an Angel Tree camper. Include the camper's name.

  4. Cal will confirm the child is on the Angel Tree list. He will manually "push" through your camper's registration. You will be responsible for any of the optional extra costs like shirts, care packages, or camp store money.

  5. All health forms and waivers must be completed by the legal guardian before camp check-in. Parents/Guardians are responsible for transportation to camp and packing the camper adequately for the program (see packing list).

​

If you are not registered with Angel Tree and believe you may qualify give Cal a call or email and we can help you get registered.
