About Funny Farm Day Camp - "NEW ANIMALS IN 2011"
Summer is a time for all kids to make memories. It's the best time of the year full of exploration, adventure and opportunities. Our camps are inclusive serving children from all walks of life, developmental, social and behavioural abilities, income levels and family makeup together. This non-stigmatizing, integrative approach sends the message that all kids are special, able and welcome on the farm. EIEIO!

We believe every child deserves a chance to come to camp. However, many children and families don't have the means or financial resources to provide the opportunity of a lifetime so their child can gain the awesome life experiences that our camp provides. We ask for all attending to pay what they can, and those supporting to dig deep and help make camp happen for every camper. Summer more than any other time of the year has the potential to be that life changing time, where memories are made that could last an eternity.
“Every kid 2 camp” is an initiative to provide all kids that want to come to the Farm an opportunity to explore animals, life skills and choice making that will change them forever. When you register your child, please consider checking off and including $10, $20, $50 or full camp fee to help others send their kids to camp. If you would like more information about becoming a donor or business partner please look for "How to Help" on the left side of the screen or at our home page and click on the appropriate page.
Thank you!
