Camp Loyaltown Information
As the Camp Loyaltown Summer 2024 season ends, we’d like to thank everyone for making these past three months remarkable and memorable for all the wonderful campers.
Camp Loyaltown, located in the picturesque Catskill Mountains in Hunter, New York, offers camp sessions filled with recreational and art programs for children and adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
With the amount of compassionate and energetic counselors traveling from around the world on a J-1 Exchange Visitor Visa, we could fully staff all the activity stations all day, every day. The available activity stations allowed campers to choose how they wanted to spend each day at camp instead of following a schedule. We’re happy to report that campers and counselors were delighted with the freedom and empowerment. We offer so many activities: sports, swimming, arts & crafts, performing arts, and animal therapy, to name a few.
We strive to create magical moments for campers as they make new memories, build lasting friendships, and express themselves.
We wish everyone an incredible rest of their year and can’t wait to get back to camp in Summer 2025.
