Camp Pine Cone
Camp Pine Cone is a summer day camp designed for children with developmental or physical disabilities (ages 5 to 13) who are not yet ready for overnight camp or who have special needs that make attending overnight camp a challenge. This day camp program is all about fun, making friends, trying something new and gaining independence through traditional summer camp activities. We seamlessly accommodate individual campers’ needs so they can fully participate in anything they would like to try.
Our camper-to-counselor ratio is 3:1, ensuring campers receive the care and support they need. Children who require one-on-one support may attend with a parent or caregiver. A team of nurses is on-site to administer medications and provide campers with medical attention if necessary.
