Camp Overview
Camp Anne offers a structured, yet relaxed, atmosphere for children and adults who function in the moderate, severe and profound ranges of intellectual and developmental disabilities. Campers enjoy a traditional summer camp experience: arts, boating, cooking, crafts, dance, music, nature, sports, swimming – all under careful staff direction in a fun environment in the Berkshire region. Emphasis is on promoting independence in daily living skills, increasing communication, increasing self-confidence and improving appropriate social interaction. As a staff member, you will be challenged to promote the camper’s ability to communicate, interact and increase independence in daily living skills through participation in carefully supervised traditional summer camp experiences. These include arts and crafts, boating, dance, music, nature, sports, swimming, and other camp-wide events.
