Camp Rotary

Camp Rotary Residential summer camp for children, youth, and adults with disabilities in New Brunswick, Canada. Our camp offers several camp sessions, all separated by age.

Easter Seals New Brunswick owns, hosts and operates Camp Rotary in Sunnyside Beach on Grand Lake. Camp Rotary is the only fully accessible overnight summer camp for New Brunswick children, youth, and adults with disabilities. Camp Rotary has provided top-quality programs for over 70 years. Each year, we host hundreds of campers from across New Brunswick. Our programs are framed to ensure campers a

re surrounded with a judgement-free environment designed with an independence, relationship building and the personal development of our campers in mind. Our dedicated staff provides exceptional care and leadership. Our counsellor to camper ratio is 2-to-1, and our team is trained to meet the diverse medical, mobility, personal care, and nutritional needs of our campers. It is a lot of our campers' first experience being away from family and we pride ourselves on providing the necessary support and comfort for them to stay all week long! Camp Rotary thrives on interactive and fun overnight camp experiences, including archery, art activities, swimming in our pool and the lake, canoeing, sustainability, and of course many camp songs and themed days!

Hello to our Camp Family! We currently have two salon sinks at camp that we would like to utilize more efficiently. We are in search of two salon chairs to place at the sinks to better serve our camp community.

We could potentially pick them up if they are in the Fredericton Area. We appreciate all of the donations of furniture that we’ve been receiving over the past week.

We’re so honoured to have everyone rally around this place we love so much.

It is with heavy hearts that we share the passing of Randy Dickinson, a lifelong champion of Camp Rotary and of the disability community across New Brunswick.

Randy’s connection to Camp Rotary began as a camper, later becoming a staff member, Camp Director, and eventually Executive Director of Easter Seals New Brunswick. His impact on our camp is woven into its history. His vision helped shape Camp Rotary into the magical and accessible place so many know and love today.

But Randy’s legacy was never just about buildings or projects. It was about people. He believed deeply in inclusion, dignity, and opportunity for everyone. Year after year, Randy and his wife Karen continued to support Camp Rotary through visits, donations, advocacy, encouragement, and unwavering belief in the importance of camp. His generosity and care touched generations of campers and staff alike.

Beyond camp, Randy was a remarkable advocate for accessibility and human rights throughout New Brunswick. His leadership helped shape organizations, initiatives, and conversations that made our province more inclusive for countless individuals and families.

To many, Randy was a mentor, a friend, a storyteller, and a steady supporter. To Camp Rotary, he was truly a legend in every sense of the word.

We are incredibly grateful for everything Randy gave to this camp and to the wider community. His legacy will continue to live on around every campfire, in every friendship formed at camp, and in the countless lives made better because he cared so deeply.

Our thoughts are with Karen, his family, friends, and all who had the privilege of knowing him. 💙

✨ Counsellor in Training applications now open! ✨

Counsellor in Training (CIT) is a fourteen day program designed for youth that are interested in and have the capacity to become Camp Rotary staff. The program focuses on communication skills, counselling skills, programming, disability awareness, and various other skills. 🌲

For the first portion of the program, CIT’s will participate in sessions that focus on Camp Rotary staff skills, as well as sessions highlighting the fun and enjoyment that can be had at camp! We will then go on a 3-day camping trip somewhere in the province, focusing on learning, growing, and making lifelong memories with Camp Rotary. ☀️

After the camping trip, CIT campers will have the opportunity to be in cabins for the remainder of the session, experiencing first hand the magic of being with campers and in cabins! 🌊

Proud is an understatement! Campers will recognize Micro's familiar face from around camp. She is the daughter of our Assistant Director and spends her summers on the lake.

She chose to do her project on Camp Rotary because she believes that each person adds value to our communities and should be treated with respect and dignity. Her passion for camp and the campers shone through as she presented her project at the ASD-W District Heritage Fair.

We are so honoured that she chose Camp Rotary as her topic and it was such a privilege to hear about camp from her unique perspective!

We are so proud of Grace as she presented at the anglophone West School District Heritage Fair! Congratulations on a fantastic presentation! 👏

Our CEO Mike Mazerolle was able to show support as her Camp Rotary Project was on display!

Well done Grace! 🎉
