Our Story
Welcome to 92NY Camps! For over 60 years, we’ve offered one of the most transformative and educational summer experiences for active and creative children.
With a 50-acre Rockland County campground furnished with state-of-the-art music, dance, swim and craft facilities, along with interactive multimedia and filmmaking studios and thrill-seeking adventure courses, no one does summer camp like 92NY. Our camp is only 20 minutes outside of New York City, with pickups in Manhattan and north of Manhattan.
Our expertly-designed programs provide endless opportunities for fun, discovery and adventure. Whether your child is learning to dive for the first time in our Red Cross-certified Swim program, soaring through the trees on a zip line or creating ceramics, their needs are cherished and given space to grow.
It’s All about VALUES …
We want our campers to feel safe and secure—both emotionally and physically—so they can thrive in an environment that will help them grow. This means giving them the chance to take safe risks, learn through trial and error, build creatively and develop resilience. Opportunities for staff to promote being Mindful, Compassionate, Courageous, a Leader, and a Mensch are integrated into our programming.
Spending the summer with us means adherence to the following principles:
- Kindness—Campers learn empathy and respect for others. They find out what it’s like to make a positive difference in the world.
- Individuality—Our camp electives specializations empower children to ask questions and gain a sense of independence to try things at their own pace, think for themselves and gain the confidence to be guided by their own interests and talents.
- Motivation—Campers retain their natural curiosity and zest for learning something new.
- Creativity—Campers are supported by staff in tackling problems and finding solutions by working them out for themselves.
- Resilience—Campers are encouraged to believe in themselves, to respond to failure as an opportunity to learn, to bounce back from disappointment, to approach life with enthusiasm.
