Thank you to contributor Laura Davis, 8-year counselor and group leader. Day to day, we are so used to seeing everyone attached to screens, with kids and teenagers preferring to communicate with snaps, likes and comments rather than with actual spoken words. Camp Vega is a place where girls feel comfortable enough to speak their […]
We are always looking for ways to give back to our communities with the Camp Vega family and live by the Vega Values. During the summer girls have performed at a local senior living facility and shared letters from campers with the residents. Throughout the year we have come together for the MS Walk in NYC, various charity […]
We are happy to announce some of the larger projects the buildings and grounds department will be working on leading up to the 2020 summer camp session! This year’s buildings and grounds team consists of Tiger, Scott, Chris, and Alex. They are currently working on: Equestrian Center Roof & Solar Panels. The Equestrian Center is […]
Now that all of the campers and many of the staff are safely at home, we can take a deep breath and begin to reflect. Our hearts are bursting with pride and gratitude, our eyes still teary from saying “see you later” to so many people we love, and our ears still ringing with […]

Dear Vega Families, Summer 2019 has begun! The thrill, pride, and whirlwind of emotions of Opening Day cease to amaze us, especially since we are fortunate to experience it from both sides. As camp parents, dropping our nine-year-old son at camp last Saturday, we understand the trust you place in us and the hopes […]
Keeping the beautiful buildings and grounds at Vega in tip-top shape is a year-round job. We are so fortunate to have incredibly dedicated staff who maintain and expand our facilities throughout the off-season. Thank you to our outstanding year-round Maintenance Crew, Tiger Hewitt, Scott Bilodeau and Chris Firlotte for taking care of our summer home; and […]
It is funny how our lives as camp directors are lived entirely in relation to camp. Leaves falling from the trees means it is time to start hiring staff, snow on the ground means it is time to finalize our summer calendar, NBA and NHL playoffs means camp is right around the corner and we […]
The weekend of April 27th & 28th, 2019, we had two wonderful opportunities to fulfill our mission of living by the Vega Values of Unity, Integrity, Gratitude, Empathy and Believing in Ourselves. On Saturday we welcomed new members of the Vega family at the new camper get together, and Sunday walked in support of finding a […]
