More About Camp
We offer 10 one week camping sessions, divided by age and disability. Camp runs from late May to mid August. We maintain a 2 to 1 camper to counselor ratio, so that each camper receives the assistance they need, anywhere from supervision to total assistance. All staff & volunteers undergo a criminal background check, checking references and a substantial training.
