The RCCA does not run a summer camp for kids, however, we will provide a financial scholarships for kids to attend one of the NYC DEC Summer Camps or other select summer camps that focus on providing kids the opportunity to learn about the environment and experience outdoor activities.
Each year, the RCCA and its Member Clubs join together to sponsor youth to attend the NYS DEC Camp Colby located on Lake Colby in the Adirondacks or any of the camps listed below (up to $350 per student).
Camp sponsorships are for individual students, not organizations. The number of sponsorships are limited each year so apply early.
If you are part of one of the RCCA's Member Clubs and have a child between the age of 11-17 that would like to be sponsored to attend one of our approved summer camps, please reach out to your Member Club or an RCCA Director.
