Family Camp on the lake at Club Getaway - Registration is now OPEN!
PARTNER

 

 

Start planning your trip to Family Camp at Club Getaway – 2018 Dates Released!

 
Get out and play with your kids (and a little without them!) The Club Getaway Family Camps are created for the entire family to enjoy time together AND time apart. Kids get the sense that they are independent and are encouraged to enjoy time with their peers and the grownups get to enjoy activities that range from hiking, biking, painting, and wine-tasting, to swimming, sailing, and napping on the veranda. There is something for everyone and kids are paired with same-aged kids for the weekend or week. 
 
Getaway Family Weekends and Midweeks are where families stay together in private (air-conditioned bunks) and have the chance to do activities together and explore camp on their own. Your kids can spend the day at the supervised Kids Club and Teen Club while you enjoy over 40+ activities: water-sports, relaxing by the lake, hiking, yoga, cooking classes, ropes course, zip line, mountain biking, BBQs and more! Kids are able to be in the kid’s program but also have the option of hanging out with Mom and Dad or Grandma and Grandpa. The entire family is invited to enjoy this great camp. 
 
At night enjoy magic shows, carnival, dance party and plenty of family entertainment from parent/kid game shows and karaoke to wacky family Olympics and of course – what’s camp without a campfire and s’mores?
 
Things to Know:
  • Family camp pricing includes: Housing, All Meals, Entertainment and Activities.
  • The camp is a 2-hour drive by car or Metro North train* ride from NYC Grand Central Station. *Club Getaway provides complimentary transportation from the train station in Connecticut. 
  • Extended family is invited so invite the grandparents, aunts, and uncles, etc. It’s a family affair!
  • FiDi Families is hosting the weekend of August 24th – 26th. 
  • Last summer the Family Camp sold out so start planning your summer getaway now!
