Belleayre Sleepaway Camp
Belleayre Mountain Sleep-Away Camp
Introduction
Belleayre Mountain Camp is in a beautiful Catskill wonderland 125 miles north of NYC. Children enjoy fresh air, magnificent landscapes, clean lakes and rivers, and an emphasis on environmental education. Belleayre Camp gets your child out of the city and into nature for an experience that lasts a lifetime. The program is limited to 50 campers and is intended to be the first sleep-away experience for some, and a departure from larger groups for others. The relationships built at Belleayre are warm and genuine.
Sleep-Away at Day Camp Prices
Manhattan Youth has managed to offer very affordable tuition rates for Belleayre Camp - well below other sleep-away camp rates. The camp also offers tuition assistance for qualifying families. Please see our registration form or contact us for more information.
Camp Leadership
Manhattan Youth Executive Director Bob Townley has been operating youth programs in Lower Manhattan for over 25 years, and he will be leading Belleayre Camp personally. The fun-filled, flexible program is staffed by experienced camping professionals.
Facilities
Belleayre Camp includes newly constructed lodge-style cabins, a large recreation hall, game room, dining room, outdoor fire pit, and mountain hiking trails. Four campers and one supervising counselor share each cabin with private bathrooms and showers. Hundreds of trail miles, Belleayre Lake Beach, basketball and tennis courts are all just a short walk away.
Nature Education
Outdoor activities at Belleayre teach our children about the environment and contribute to healthy physical development. Campers learn about conservation while exploring our beautiful mountains. The Catskills Watershed and its extensive habitat for birds, fish and mammals provide unique opportunities to enjoy and learn about nature.
Activities
Swimming, hiking, biking, art, woodworking, team-building, evening camp fire programs, tennis and basketball are all on the menu to provide a range of fun and healthy experiences at Belleayre.
Supervision, Meals and Transportation
24 hour supervision is an important part of our safety plan. Our engaging and friendly spirit is supported by a very high counselor-to-camper ratio at all times. Daily Bar-B-Ques and healthy meals are provided, complementing fresh air with health-conscious cooking. Full-size buses provide safety traveling between Manhattan and Belleayre.
