Camp Akeela

Transporting you to the heart of the picturesque Green Mountains, we present Camp Akeela, a hidden gem radiating with vibrancy and camaraderie. Nesting on the shores of a crystal-clear lake, Akeela's campus seizes your breath with its stunning natural beauty. Akeela is more than an overnight camp. It's a haven of joy, immersed in traditional activities that promote growth beyond sporty pursuits, like baseball, swimming, or mountain biking. The list is almost as vast as the surrounding wilderness. However, the camp's heart pulses in rhythm with the social growth it fosters, especially tailored to support children diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome or non-verbal learning disabilities. Delightfully supportive, Akeela lives and breathes intentionality. Marking each child and staff member with importance, it emphasizes the richness of diversity and respect. Akeela thrives on connection, always looking to sprinkle the seeds of warmth that grow into deep-rooted friendships. It's a place where confidence isn't just nurtured; it soars. Independence isn't just encouraged; it blossoms. A glimpse into Akeela welcomes a rhythm of predictability and structure, an environment proven beneficial to its campers. But don't think that means monotony. Here, choice is always on the table, and specialization takes center stage. The space for exploration is as vast as the sprawling skies above Akeela's grounds. And as the sun sets in the Vermont sky, campers return to their cozy cabins, hearts bustling with excitement, and minds bursting with unforgettable memories. At Camp Akeela, each day awakens new adventures, each night blankets peaceful rest, and every memory forged dances with laughter and spirit. Akeela doesn't just provide a summer — it scripts the tales of lifetime friendships and everlasting self-discoveries.
