Welcome

A Message from Discover Camp's Founder & Director

Dear Families,

Since 1994 my wife and I have been creating exciting enrichment programs for children in both the camp setting and as public school educators. Discover Camp was born out of our love of teaching science, technology, math and utilizing hobbies in education. Discover Camp originally started as a hands-on hobby camp but since has expanded to provide a wide variety of enriching activities for boys and girls. Our philosophies are on the importance of hands-on activities in education have never wavered. As a matter of fact we think it is more important than ever to introduce children to interactive, stimulating, hands-on experiences as our schools have been forced to focus on state tests and district rankings.

Holy Rosary School continues to embrace our program and welcomes us back to their school. We utilize the entire facility, 17 classrooms, a gymnasium, cafeteria and all the athletic fields. The school is centrally located in Hawthorne, NY, less than a minute from the Sprain, Taconic and Bronx River Parkways and just 5 minutes north of White Plains. The grounds are perfect for our programs and the air conditioned facilities
offers an escape from the summer heat.

Discover Camp was built upon our love of hobbies and we have built close relationships with the biggest names in the industry. These relationships allow us to research new products throughout the year and to develop new classes. We are the only camp in the United States that works directly with hobby manufacturers and distributors. Our hobby programs have been an integral part of our success; and have helped establish us as leaders in this unique field and it is what sets us apart from other camps. We're always one step ahead

Back in 2007 Discover Camp was recognized by SMART Technologies as a "promising, innovative program" and granted us SMART Boards for our classrooms. Besides the majority of our instructors being NYS certified teachers six of them are recognized as SMART Exemplary Educators.

Discover Camp promises to provide a new experience for your child that will begin a lifelong love of discovery.

Truly yours,
Anthony & Sabrina Rich
and Family
