Press release<\/p>\n\n\n\n

LYNDONVILLE \u2014 The 2024 Camp Rainbow season ended with a splash, and thanks to The Children\u2019s Guild Foundation, the 2025 season is looking to be even better!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thanks to a $27,172.65 grant for splish, splash, and rock and roll awarded in July, Camp Rainbow will be installing outdoor musical equipment to help with sensory processing needs. Music provides a therapeutic outlet for sensory and behavioral needs, and musical playground equipment will provide an opportunity for creative expression outdoors. With The Children\u2019s Guild Foundation\u2019s generous support, Camp Rainbow will be able to install a percussion play conga trio, a percussion play alto diatonic free chimes and a flower drum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The grant also provided support for the salaries for kitchen and pool staff and allowed Camp Rainbow to comply with Legislation S.7424\/A.366A which requires \u201ccamps and youth sports programs to establish an automated external defibrillator (AED) implementation plan; requires camps and youth sports programs to have at least one person trained to use such defibrillators at camps, games and practices.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An AED was present during the 2024 season and will be available at Camp Rainbow going forward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe are so grateful to The Children\u2019s Guild Foundation for their support of Camp Rainbow this summer,\u201d said Jen Batt, director of community services for the northern region. \u201cTheir generosity allowed us to provide a robust swimming program, provide freshly made breakfast and lunch to all campers and expand our playground with long wished for sensory items.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n

Camp Rainbow, founded in 1970, is a summer day camp available to all children ages 5 to 21. While Camp Rainbow was originally designed to meet the needs of children with developmental and\/or physical disabilities, it was opened to all children ages 5 to 21 in 1992. Since that time, Camp Rainbow has encouraged friendships and understanding among children with and without disabilities as well as promoting integration and inclusion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Camp Rainbow relies on the generous support of our community, and in addition to The Children\u2019s Guild Foundation, the 2024 season was supported by grants from the Kenlou Foundation, the Medina Sandstone Society, the Lyndonville Foundation, Orleans County Youth Bureau, the United Way of Orleans County, the Curtis Foundation, and the Rochester Community Foundation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
