Since 1922, Camp Cosby has helped set the standard of excellence in resident camping through programs that match the interests and abilities of each camper. At Camp Cosby, boys and girls have the opportunity to build self esteem, grow, learn, and challenge themselves. Campers also learn to develop values such as caring, honesty, respect and responsibility. Through meeting international staff and campers, children develop both an appreciation of international relationships and cultural understanding. Camp Cosby's beautiful location provides campers with an excellent opportunity to appreciate the natural environment and have FUN.

When Camp Cosby was last accredited, the two experienced American Camp Association visitors said we had passed every item. But, more than that, they wanted to let us know how clearly they felt a “spirit” in the community…something special that told them that this was a positive place where kids were highly respected. They pointed out how safe, socially and emotionally, as well as physically, the camp felt … and how everyone on the staff was so supportive and fun with the kids.



Alumni, campers, and parents have often felt the same “Camp Cosby spirit,” when at the camp. That spirit is hard to put into words, but very present, whether spoken or just felt.
