The shovels the boys use measure the size of the holes they have to dig. When the hole is as deep and as wide as the shovel, it's done.

How big were the hole that campers expected to dig every day?

Assuming you mean the holes from the book Holes by Louis Sachar, they had to dig holes as deep and as wide as the shovels given to them, which were approximately five feet long. Then, if we calculate the volume of a cylinder, we would get that the campers would have to dig 98.2142 cubic feet of dirt to get a hole five feet deep with a diameter of five feet.
