Application to attend Sunshine Camp at Zilker Park - 2010

Sunshine Camp has provided a fun-filled experience for children of greater Austin since 1928. It is conducted by the Young Men’s Business League and it is free to those children ages 7 through 11 who are selected.

The campers stay overnight at the camp located at Zilker Park. Camp uniforms, soap, towels, bedding (except pillows), etc. are all provided.

Campers need only bring tennis shoes, bathing suits, underclothes, a pillow, and grooming aids.

The camp program, under the supervision of experienced counselors, includes swimming at nearby Barton Springs, handicrafts, nature study, hikes, games, singing, and story telling which give the children a well-rounded summer camp. The children are given three nourishing meals a day.

The Sunshine Camp is committed to assuring that our program is made available to all persons and provided to all eligible individuals without regard to race, color, national origin, age, gender, disability, political belief or religion.
