Dear Friend of Easter Seals Camp Fairlee,

Each camper that attends Easter Seals Camp Fairlee becomes part of the Fairlee family, but some members have been a part of the family a lot longer. Jamal, who has Cerebral Palsy and uses a wheelchair, looks forward to coming to camp each summer and has been coming for 26 years! Starting at the age of 6, Jamal has made his mark on camp. CLICK HERE to read more about the story of Jamal, his mom, and how Camp Fairlee has become an important part of their support system.

We are now getting lots of applications every day for summer camp. To be sure you get your preferred summer session register now.
