If your family receives services from LRCS, you can talk to your Resource Coordinator about camp grants and scholarships.
Here are some camp programs in New Hampshire and other New England states:
Camp Fatima, Gilmanton Ironworks, NH
Camp Hawkeye, Moultonborough, NH
Camp Oceanwood, Ocean Park, ME
Easter Seals Camp Sno-Mo, Gilmanton Ironworks,
The Mayhew Program, Bristol, NH
Circle of Fleur de Lis (a one-week free camp experience for girls who have experienced the death of a parent)
If you are the parent of a school-aged child, contact your school district to inquire about what kind of summer programming is offered. You can also check with your local parks and recreation department to see what your community offers for summer programming.
