Half Moon... Memories That Last a Lifetime!

Camp Half Moon located in the Berkshire Hills of Western Massachusetts offers a Traditional Sleepover Camp experience as well as a day camp program for younger campers. Our camp is a delightful and rewarding experience for children of all ages. The essence of this experience enhances a child's self esteem, independence and social values in addition to providing wonderful memories which often last a life time.

 

The Half Moon Philosophy is based on six principles: Structure, Social Values, Sound Learning Skills, Spirit, Guidance and Individuality.

 

Half Moon is proud to offer a diversified program in sports, arts and enrichment areas. We wish to involve the camper in a variety of the many activities offered therefore activities are chosen by the camper on a weekly basis. The Camp's program emphasizes instruction rather than high competition. Campers are given time to practice and are encouraged to recognize all improvements as a measurement of success.

 

Half Moon's facilities include a waterfront equipped with sail boats, row boats, canoes and speed boats as well as a sliding board, and kayaks. Tennis and basketball courts, skatepark, excellent playing fields, a theater and other indoor areas for rainy day activities are interspersed throughout the grounds.
