What is the Akron Rotary Camp?
Founded in 1924, the Akron Rotary Camp was founded by members of the Rotary Club of Akron. At that point, the camp was dedicated to helping children with polio and other physical disabilities. Today, children and adults with developmental disabilities make up more than half of the campers served. The largest disability represented falls under Autism Spectrum Disorders.
The camp is funded through the Akron Rotary Foundation, private donations, and proceeds from the Wayne Homes Chili Open. These funds have helped the camp to expand facilities, open two other day camp sites, and provide thousands of dollars in financial aid to families who cannot afford to send their children to camp. This ensures that all eligible campers can attend, regardless of an inability to pay.
