Overview

Camp Farley is a not for profit organization with a long tradition of providing an excellent camp experience to youngsters each summer

Camp Farley's mission is to create a supportive environment for culturally diverse youth and adults to reach their fullest potential by:

* providing a safe, enjoyable outdoor learning experience,

* providing opportunities to develop leadership, social and group living skills while fostering creativity, independence and responsibility,

* offering a choice of age appropriate programs that build confidence and self- esteem, encouraging an understanding and respect for the environment, animals, agriculture, and natural resources, building an appreciation and acceptance of the differences in people, and developing a caring community.

At Camp Farley youngsters learn through experiential or hands-on learning and gain valuable life skills needed to be successful - as children and adults. These skills include communication, decision-making, problem solving, sharing, and conflict resolution. They gain these skills at Camp Farley from traditional and contemporary camp activities, social interaction with other children & staff, and the unique experiences inherently found at a traditional summer camp.
