Special Needs
Summer Camp
Explore the outdoors and create memories during our
weeklong camps. Campers will create and rekindle
lifelong friendships that develop in their time at Camp
Albrecht Acres.
Our staff encourages all campers to try new things
and be as active as they like. Opportunities offered
include swimming, fishing, hiking, arts and crafts, weekly
dances, and parades.
Respite Weekends
Four respite weekends are offered during the fall, winter
and spring and give caregivers a much deserved
break from caring for their loved ones. Each weekend
has it’s own theme and all are uniquely different.
