A Note From Sheryl, Richie, and Adam:
To Our Equinunk and Blue Ridge Family,
Thank you. We believe strongly that the character of our camp is a reflection of the character of our people; campers, parents, staff and alumni. It is because of who you are, who your children are and how you are raising them that makes Equinunk and Blue Ridge the unique and extraordinary environment that it is. Thank you for entrusting the care of your children to us and for choosing to become part of our camp family.
Above all, the greatest impact of the EBR Experience will be the lifelong friendships your children form and our community’s opportunity to help develop their character—fostering integrity, empathy, inclusivity, independence, and resilience. Guided by our values of Family, Childcare, and Tradition, these principles shape every decision we make and the community we lead.
We are deeply grateful to our Equinunk and Blue Ridge families for everything you contribute to our camp family. The positive impact our campers and staff have on each other is what makes the EBR experience truly extraordinary. We look forward to walking this path together as we help raise the next generation of thoughtful, caring, and confident leaders.
Love,
Growing Up At, And Now Directing, CECBR:
In the summer of 1991, as a shy and sweet 9-year-old boy, I took my first steps into the world of Camps Equinunk & Blue Ridge. Never could I or my parents, Sheryl and Richie, imagine that this would begin a journey so incredible and transformative that it would help shape my core values and career choices. For generations, parents have sent their sons and daughters to a community that is more than a summer camp, but rather into an enduring culture that has preserved the values of family, compassion, tradition, and childcare since 1920. It quickly became clear to me that returning to EBR each summer was really coming home, leaving the ordinary to step into the extraordinary.
Decades later, as an Owner-Director of Equinunk and Blue Ridge it is with tremendous dedication and passion that my family, leadership team and I ensure your sons and daughters are guided through experiences that will lead them to become better sons and daughters, sisters and brothers, husbands and wives, and one day better mothers and fathers. The work we do has the potential not just to change lives, but to transform them. As one camper who became a counselor and color war chief describes it, “Equinunk and Blue Ridge is a place where your best friends become your brothers and sisters, and your brothers and sisters become your best friends. For it is not just the traditions that define us, but rather the people who pass them down.”
Thank you for your trust and valuing the timeless experience that is Equinunk & Blue Ridge. We are dedicated to the success of your children and take our role in their lives with great care and responsibility. We look forward to the many years that your family will be a part of ours.
All my best,
