Daytona Beach H.O.G.® 5307 Chapter Charity
A cause the H.O.G.® chapter chooses to support with rides, and other activities, to raise money to help the cause.
The purpose of any H.O.G.® chapter is to promote motorcycling activities for the Harley Owners Group® members. We encourage a family oriented club that portrays a positive image of motorcycling.
To help promote a more positive image of motorcycles and bikers, the Daytona Beach Chapter of H.O.G.® supports a main “cause” annually by hosting runs (rides) to show support for these causes. The support may involve the collection of food, toys or money – or sometimes just provide a much loved motorcycle parade or ride for Vets, homebound individuals or ill children who love the “bikers”! Our major cause annually is the Camp Boggy Creek Ride for Children.
You can look forward to a wonderful and exciting year with all its challenges. Please remember this is your chapter and needs your support and participation to make it the huge success we all know it is! To learn a little more about Camp Boggy Creek, and why Daytona H.O.G.® supports such a worthy cause, read on.
Camp Boggy Creek is specifically designed for Florida children with chronic or life threatening illnesses and allows them to safely enjoy the activities of a “traditional” camp. Between early morning swims and evening campfires, children whose lives have been a series of medical procedures and hospital stays are transformed into just “kids”. They have a chance to be with others coping with the same illness or condition and realize that they are not alone.

Learn about Camp Boggy Creek…
Camp Boggy Creek camping experience is more than a fun-filled getaway. It helps children to better cope with the day-to-day challenges they face. It also offers critical support to the parents, guardians and siblings of these amazing campers.
Located on 232 acres of beautiful wooded land, it has 44 cracker style buildings including 16 camper cabins, dining hall, medical center, swim center, stable, little farm, sports and recreation center, arts and crafts building, creative center and theater.
Boggy Creek programs include week long summer sessions as well as family weekends in the fall and spring. Summer programs allow the child a week of fun, adventure and independence in a setting that provides complete medical care. Family weekends bring a camper’s whole family to camp where parents can relax and find needed support among other families dealing with identical emotional and financial challenges. Brothers and sisters get to participate in the same fun-filled activities as their Boggy Creek camper.
The camp is specifically designed for Florida children with chronic or life threatening illnesses and allows them to safely enjoy the activities of a “traditional” camp. Between early morning swims and evening campfires, children whose lives have been a series of medical procedures and hospital stays are transformed into just “kids”. They have a chance to be with others coping with the same illness or condition and realize that they are not alone. Hugs are part of the daily dietary requirements at Boggy Creek. The campers develop special relationships with each other and with their counselors.
