Countdown To Summer
We are counting down the days until summer!
Camp
At overnight camps in New York’s Mid-Hudson Valley, children ages 8-15 make new friends, develop leadership skills and gain self-confidence.
A day at camp is full of fun activities like learning to swim, arts & crafts, archery, learning to play guitar, exploring the outdoors and more!

My favorite part of camp is getting to hang out in the cabins with all my friends – I’ve made lots of new friends already!

Camp is special to me because I get to see everyone care for each other. At The Fresh Air Fund, we support each other and just like they say, a summer lasts a lifetime.

Friendly Towns
The Fresh Air Fund recently completed a strategic plan to set a vision for the future and, as part of that plan, we have reached the difficult decision that it is time to focus our resources on our thriving camp programs and we will no longer be offering the Friendly Towns program moving forward. As we approach our 150th anniversary, we look forward to celebrating its legacy and the remarkable community that made it possible.
