Register Now for Fresh Air Fund's Free Summer Camp Through CAMBA

How does a 2-week sleep-away summer camp with swimming, hiking, and more sound? CAMBA has started enrolling children between the ages of 6-15 to participate in the Fresh Air Fund Camps/Friendly Town Programs located in Fishkill, New York.

Friendly Town serves children 6-12 who are invited to stay at a host family for the 2-week period. Every host family is carefully screened, their references are verified, their homes are checked for safety, and they are personally interviewed and trained by Fresh Air Fund volunteers.

The Camp serves girls ages 8-12 and boys ages 8-15 years.

Applications are available online here. Completed applications can be returned to CAMBA at 885 Flatbush Avenue, 3rd floor, Monday through Friday from 9am to 5pm. For more info, call Elizabeth at 718-282-5575, ext. 40355.

UPDATE 5:45pm: The Flatbush Development Corporation is also helping community members sign up, so if their office at 1616 Newkirk Ave is a little more convenient to you, you are welcome to contact Marie Kerrin for more info. She’s available Monday, Wednesday, and Friday from 9am-5pm and can be reached at mkerrin@fdconline.org.
