Camp PEP Update: Unfortunately, due to adequate staffing concerns, we will not be able to provide Camp PEP to our campers. We sincerely hope that Camp PEP 2024 will be a reality.
Since its inception in 1969, Camp PEP has been providing exceptional social, cultural and recreational experiences for children and adults with intellectual and/or physical disabilities. Camp is held four weeks each summer during July and August. A talented and dedicated staff of counselors and teachers insure that campers enjoy a fun camp experience while working to reach their individual goals.
Besides having fun, campers advance in independence, self-reliance, and socialization skills. Campers may attend some or all of the four-week day camp. The camp fee includes: supplies, daily meals and snacks, admission for all field trips and activities and one Camp PEP Tee Shirt.
Campers are assigned to small groups based on their functional ability, age and individual needs so each camper can benefit from greater individual attention. Special education teachers provide a daily curriculum that includes art, music, crafts, sports, swimming, dance and field trips. As they participate, campers develop peer relationships and enhanced social skills.
