Camp Lee Mar is a special camp that’s perfect for special kids

-

Camp Lee Mar in Pike County is proud of its staff and campers. Last summer we celebrated a real milestone, our 70th season.

All our campers and staff did a wonderful job. We are now preparing for our 71st summer and are so excited.

This summer, Camp Lee Mar will be celebratin­g a number of milestones. Ari Segal, the camp’s owner/director, will be celebratin­g his 31st season; academic coordinato­r Laura Leibowitz will be celebratin­g her 41st; and assistant director Lynsey Trohoske will be celebratin­g her 26th.

Camp Lee Mar’s unique program combines all the fun traditiona­l camp activities — basketball, kickball, tennis, boating and fishing, soccer, arts and crafts — with academics, speech and daily living skills.

Camp Lee Mar also has a therapeuti­c horseback riding program, a zip Line and overnigh trips.

The facilities are exceptiona­l, highlighte­d by the popular Junior Olympic heated pool and air-conditione­d buildings (including cabins).

Camp Lee Mar holds many special events each summer: the Fourth of July celebratio­n, Western Night, Carnival Day and the Lee Mar Olympics, to name just a few.

The senior division campers talk all year about Social Dance, which we have every weekend, followed by the Senior Fling (Prom), which takes place in early August.

The Lee Mar L.I.F.E. Program (Living Independen­tly Functional Education) continues to be a huge success, and we again expect a waiting list in 2023.

The hallmark of Lee Mar’s program is our incredible, nurturing staff, all dedicated to working with children with special needs. Camp Lee Mar is truly “A Special Camp for Special Kids.”
