Located on the west side of Seneca Lake just south of Dresden, Camp Whitman is an overnight camp for third grade through high school and for youth and adults with developmental disabilities. Camps are scheduled for one-week periods from July 1 - August 17. A number of camps are themed and include Family Camp, Music & Drama Arts Camp, Creative Arts & Photography Camp, Kayak Camp, Sailing Camps, Sports & Games Camp, Moonlight Madness Camp, Extreme Whitman Camp, Mission Possible Camp, Nature Explorations Camp, Nite Owl Camp and Wilderness Survival Camp as well as Leadership Training Camp. Activities such as swimming in the pool, boating on the lake, banana boating, camp fires and cook outs, arts and crafts and nature hikes in the woods, ravines, meadows, Punnett’s Pond and the beautiful Seneca lakefront are a part of the camper experience. A shorter 3 night camp provides a great first camp experience for children going into 3rd grade. Fees range from $235-$415. The registration fee is ½ the camp cost with the remaining balance due four weeks prior to the chosen camp week. Limited scholarships are available.
