Camp Fairlee Work Days
(May 13, 2023) On May 12 and 13, Rotartians from around District 7630 (DelMarVa region) gathered to prepair the grounds of Easterseals Camp Fairlee in Chestertown, Maryland for the summer season. This year, members of the Snow Hill High School Interact Club participated in the event.
Camp Fairlee has been providing recreation and respite for individuals age 6 and up since 1954. Camp Fairlee provides a safe and accessible camp experience where campers are challenged to discover their full potential, acquire new skills, and make new and lasting friendships while under the guidance of trained and qualified staff. While campers enjoy their time at Camp Fairlee, their families are able to take a much needed break from caregiving.
