Tabor Summer History
Since 1917, Tabor Summer Camp takes advantage of its unique seaside setting. The program was for boys only until the winter school went coeducational in 1977. Academics (now enrichment courses) have always played a part in the program, but activities are the major component of the program.
Campers attend the program for a variety of reasons, but the main goal is creating a joyful, safe, and productive summer experience away from home for both our day and residential campers. Our staff are role models and teach campers how to make new friends, learn new skills, and gain independence.
