How is Operation Purple different from other summer camps?
The goal of the Operation Purple program is to bring children of deployed service members together for an exciting and memorable camp experience. This experience is geared towards giving them additional tools to help deal with the stress resulting from a parent’s deployment and to impart the message “Kids Serve Too.” The program helps military kids experience carefree fun while establishing relationships with other children who have the shared experience of having a parent deployed. Camper registration begins March 16th for all Operation Purple camp locations. On March 16th all details on how to register and the necessary forms to apply for camp will be available on our website. For specific information on a particular Operation Purple camp, please contact the camp directly using the contact information provided on our web map at http://www.operationpurple.org/.
