Thanks to your kindness, generosity and support, our 33rd year in service was a tremendous success. It is difficult to capture everything that transpired and the whirlwind of events that took place during our 2017 campaign. In reflecting back over the year, we were fortunate to experience many achievements, receive a number of accolades and create special moments and cherished memories. Camp Sunshine offered 22 programs and served 637 families (2,505 family members) from 46 states and 5 countries. We enhanced our outreach by visiting hospitals, clinics and fairs across the country and by partnering with Tropical Smoothie Café, placing information about Camp Sunshine in each of their cafes. The highlight was the unveiling of the Sunshine Smoothie & Sunshine Cup. We also expanded our transportation assistance program to families in need, thanks to the generosity of Hands on Tzedakah, Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, Noyes Brain Tumor Foundation, SEALs for Sunshine, Windham Automotive (Ron Eby), John & Ann Ewalt, Tropical Smoothie Café, and Texas Roadhouse. In fact, you may have even seen our branded van or bus on the road during your travels.

Maine has a long tradition of summer camps, many of which are now celebrating their centennial anniversa- ries! We can’t think of a better place in the country for a child to explore; to literally discover the beauty and diverse landscape of Maine, as well as to explore who they are and who they want to become with the backdrop of some of the most idyllic scenery, ripe for human reflection. This directory provides a listing of many of the most respected camps in the industry. Additional information, along with a “find a camp” tool, is available at www.mainecamps.org. Please take the time to carefully consider these Maine camps to determine which camps would best fit your child’s personality and the goals you have for them. Time spent at a summer camp is fun as well as enriching. Your child will acquire skills that will last their lifetime: activity skills such as sailing, tennis and archery; life skills such as critical thinking, collaboration, communication and leadership. And, to top it all off, they will create lasting bonds of friendship!

  • What Today's Kids Need
    RE:CONNECT WHAT TODAY’S KIDS NEED 2013 ANNUAL REPORT LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT Recently, I was reminded of the power and rejuvenation of free, unstructured time in nature as a visitor to the Gunflint Trail. The Gunflint Trail is fifty-seven miles of road that leads from the North Shore of Lake Superior to the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness, very near the Canadian border. The original path that has today become the “Gunflint” was originally an overland footpath used to travel from the inland lakes to the shore of Lake Superior. No one knows precisely when the footpath was established, but we know it was long ago. It was first used by the native Ojibwe who have called that area of Minnesota home The mission of the American for thousands of years. With the availability and popularity of cars and the discovery Camp Association is enriching of recreational opportunities and natural resources, it wasn’t long before the path was the lives of children, youth, widened to a road. And this road reconnects me to nature in a profound way. and adults through the This area of Minnesota is a gift; it allows anyone who is traveling through it to take a camp experience. journey. I wandered, I explored, and I was able to get that feeling. You all know what I mean—the feeling of really getting away, clearing my mind in the open space on quiet lakes and trails. This is the time I treasure; I treasured it as a child at camp and I treasure it now as an adult.

So says science and the Dalai Lama — and the lifeblood of ACA, dedicated camp staff and volunteers, are taking that to heart and making a positive difference in the lives of children and young adults across the US and beyond. The empathy and genuine concern modeled at camp and fostered in the campers are steps toward a brighter future for all. Campers are living proof that the acts of kindness and intentional learning camp staff and volunteers are offering through day and overnight camp experiences are having a lasting, positive impact within the camp environment, in surrounding communities, and especially in the lives of the children they serve. Our camp professionals (camp directors, camp counselors, and other staff) and the camp experience itself change lives. We provide opportunities for campers to learn about themselves, develop character, make lifelong friends, gain crucial 21st-century skills — responsibility, communication, creativity, collaboration, initiative, leadership, the list goes on — and implement all of this into their daily lives. Parents often tell us that their child changes for the good after camp. They come home with a more positive attitude and self- confidence.
