ROME — Pine Tree Camp is now offering year-round, fully accessible programming to keep Maine people with disabilities engaged, active and outdoors at its barrier-free campus on North Pond, or from the comfort of the camper’s home.
“COVID-19 has given us a chance to continue innovating and designing new, safe opportunities for our community to experience in all four seasons,” said Camp Director Dawn Willard-Robinson in a camp news release. “We are Maine’s only ACA-accredited camp exclusively serving people with disabilities, and no camper, or family, is ever turned away due to their inability to pay.”
