Camp Kirk - Residential Summer Camp for Children with Learning Disabilities and ADD/ADHD
Camp Kirk is a small and friendly residential (overnight) summer camp that welcomes boys and girls age 6 to 13 with the following special needs:
  • Learning Disabilities
  • Attention Deficit Disorders (ADD)
  • Some Autistic Spectrum Disorders (ASD)
  • Incontinence/bedwetting

With a very high staff/camper ratio (29/36), Camp Kirk gives each camper the necessary individual attention and the support they need. Because all of our campers have special needs, together they learn that they are not alone and that they too can be successful.
