Dear Camp Families and Friends,
As we enter the new year, Camp is preparing for its 60th summer camp season. It is hard to believe that the dream of a free summer camp program for children and adults with intellectual disabilities has reached this milestone.
The Camp Board of Directors is excited to announce that a new leadership team is in place and ready to move Camp forward in a positive direction. We say goodbye to Sue Chenard after her 10-year service as Assistant Director and Director and wish her the best. We welcome Evelyn Nassif as our new Camp Director and Conor Walsh as Supervisor of Talent and Operations. Rebecca Hanlon, returning as Assistant Director, will be instrumental in helping make this a smooth and successful transition for Camp.
There is lots of work to be done as we prepare for the upcoming summer camp season. We hope to have Camper applications up on our website sometime in March. We will also be posting information on upcoming fundraising events such as a Comedy Show on March 28th, a Bottle and Can Drive at the end of April, and how we will celebrate our 60-year anniversary. In the meantime, please consider making a donation to Camp either through our website or by mailing to PO Box 2617, Meriden, CT 06450. It is due to the support we receive from those in the communities we serve that we are able to continue to provide our program at no cost to the families of our campers.
Warm regards,
Laurie J. Russell, President
Board of Directors.
