During Summer of 2023, we’re going to be living – or re-living – some of the best days of our lives!
In 2023 we’re going to look back and celebrate fun and fashion from years past, while moving full-speed ahead with all the new memories and excitement our CAMP friends and activities will bring. If you love all things old-school, retro, throwback, or classic, you are in for a treat as we hit REWIND and go back in time! And if you prefer to dream ahead of things to come – no worries – we’ve got you covered there as well as we FAST FORWARD into the future! And in the middle of it all, we’ll find plenty of time to PLAY!
We can’t wait to see you around the CAMPfire!

Claire Moynihan Spotlight on
“Before I came to CAMP, I had spent every summer at other camps swimming, doing archery, enjoying waterfronts, and making lifelong friends. Summers meant the world to me, and I credit a majority of my favorite childhood memories to time spent in cabins, kayaks, and color wars. When, on a whim, I volunteered at CAMP in high school, I had no idea what to expect. I had never considered what horseback could look like for someone with limited movement, how swimming works with a tracheostomy tube, or how canoeing could be adapted to all abilities. I was amazed to see my favorite things enjoyed by populations so often left out, and even more shocked that I had never realized how much accessibility was lacking outside the gates of CAMP. Seeing such encompassing inclusion for the first time was wonderful and exciting and has forever changed my worldview.”
“CAMP is my home and the place I’ve made some of my most valued friendships. I’ve laughed, happy-cried, danced, and sang with friends across every inch of it. CAMP is why I know, and care give for my best friend with cerebral palsy, why I am studying to be an Occupational Therapist, why I can never run out of funny stories. I’ve loved every second of sharing with friends the ultimate experience that is a summer camp. Growing up, I learned a camp song that says all that needs to be said: love is for those who find it, and I found mine right here.
