Update May 12, 2020 | Camp During the Coronavirus Pandemic
As of now, our plan is to host camp, assuming we deem it safe and New York City allows for such activities to take place. Our programming is will be adjusted to meet the needs of the times and following social distancing guidelines. There are currently 4 spots available.
In the instance Camp is not held – in person or virtual – all paid families will have the option to receive a refund or a credit for another ACBX program/service. We appreciate your understanding and look forward to the possibility of keeping the camp experience for the children this summer!
With gratitude,
