Camp Quinebaug is an unique summer camp experience for school age children with developmental disabilities in northeastern Connecticut. The camp is located on Wauregan Reservoir in Killingly on 11 acres and its waterfront is the only beach on this beautiful waterway. Approximately 90-100 campers per season enjoy the benefits of this 6 week fully accessible camp environment.

The Summer Camp at Camp Quinebaug is operated by the State of Connecticut Department of Developmental Services (DDS). Each year the camp is licensed through the Department of Public Health—Division of Youth Camps. Licensed Youth Camps in CT require strict adherence to rules, regulations and requirements ensuring the health and safety of all campers, at all times, with a high emphasis on the training and certification of staff employed by the camp and a safe camping environment.

If you are interested in sending your child, consider signing up with DDS for membership OR contact the special education department.

Registration Dates are limited and are in April to early May.
