Our Location

At Running Brook, we believe that camp is about giving kids the opportunity to experience relationships, to explore challenges and take new risks, to have tons of fun, to learn more about what they like and what they can do, and to develop more confidence in themselves.

“The level and caliber of support at all levels was incredible. I never felt like I was alone on an issue. The overall positivity of the staff was motivating and genuinely refreshing. I was welcomed with open arms and felt like I was a part of this community from Day 1.”
