FRIENDS & FAMILY CAMP – RHINEBECK

Additional Information

Ramapo for Children is inviting residents of the Mid-Hudson Valley to join with Ramapo alumni, families and friends in a family style summer camp event – Eat, Play, Give! – to be held on Ramapo’s Rhinebeck, NY campus on June 6-7, 2015.

“This is a wonderful opportunity for families to hike, climb, kayak, swim and have fun, as well as a great way to learn about all the wonderful work that Ramapo does for children,” says Chief Executive Officer Adam Weiss.

The weekend offers outdoor fun for all ages. Programming will run Saturday afternoon and Sunday morning and includes challenges on Ramapo’s high ropes course (including a rock climbing wall and zip line), swimming in Sepasco Lake, hiking along 3 miles of wooded trails, arts and crafts activities, petting Ramapo’s farm animals, and much more. It can also be a relaxed getaway for singles and couples to simply enjoy the sun and breathtaking rustic scenery. The event also includes delicious meals featuring foods from local area farms and vendors, as well as an evening campfire and marshmallow roast.

Mid-Hudson Valley Residents receive a 50% discount on the $60.00 per person registration fee for the Saturday only tickets with promotional code “HV50” entered on Ramapo’s registration page at www.EPG2015.eventbrite.com. Children under three are free. Visitors can choose to stay overnight for an additional cost. The ticket price for both Saturday and weekend bunking options is all inclusive.

About Ramapo for Children
Ramapo’s mission is to help young people with challenging behaviors and/or learning differences to find success within their schools, programs, families and communities. Our philosophy is built around the simple belief that all people want the same things: to learn, to be valued for who they are, and to experience success. Ramapo equips adults to see challenging behaviors through the lens of unmet needs and lagging skills, and provides a set of strategies that enable adults to create environments that help children align their behaviors with their aspirations.
