Annual Report 2012
“Dragonfly Forest was truly an incredible experience for my son. I knew from the minute we arrived at Dragonfly he was in wonderful hands! I wasn't sure I’d be able to get him to leave! He had the time of his life!!” - Camper Parent
Dragonfly Forest is a year round camp experience for children with Autism and other Medical Needs.
“Dragonfly Forest is (and I quote my 11 year old son), "The best week of the year!“ - Camper Parent
An entire world is often kept from our campers with Autism, 22q Deletion, Sickle Cell Disease, Bleeding Disorders and Persistent Asthma. Campers who are used to hearing ‘No,’ from parents, teachers, coaches, and doctors , have the world opened up to them as they hear ‘Yes!’ to experiences they have never tried before at Dragonfly Forest.
After School Program The Spectrum
Summer Camp Program
The foundation of what we do is to use FUN to motivate our campers about self-achievement. Summer camp and our Year Round After-School Programs don’t formally teach, yet our campers learn.
“My daughter LOVES Dragonfly Forest. She talks about it every day. She enjoys the afterschool program, but summer camp is something she “works” for every day. Because big girls that can follow directions and do things for themselves get to go to camp with their friends in the summer!” - Camper Parent
“Dragonfly Forest was a great experience for my son. It helped his leadership qualities blossom. He was able to be himself without criticism.�
- Camper Parent
Dragonfly Forest strives to foster skills for campers from age seven to adulthood. Campers can move from our regular camp program to our Teen Leader program to becoming full counselors on staff. This timeline lets them build skills that help them today and in the future as they move into the workforce.
Adults come to volunteer and work at Dragonfly Forest for many reasons. Last year counselors came from 22 states around the US … were ages 18 to 80 … were students, doctors, nurses, adults with autism, teachers, business people, and people who just wanted to make a difference in our campers’ lives.
“There are no words to describe the sheer terror of dropping your child off at camp, and no words to describe the sheer joy of seeing who they have become after 1 short week at Dragonfly.”
- Camper Parent
“Dragonfly Forest is a place where children can be themselves and not be judged by their disability. It is a place where parents know that their children are appreciated for who they are!� - Camper Parent
62.5% of our campers experience bullying in their lives. Dragonfly Forest is a bully free environment, designed to be safe and fun. A safe environment promotes growth and a desire to try new experiences.
“My kids said that Dragonfly Forest made them better people.” - Camper Parent
The result of a seven year study provides scientific evidence that Dragonfly Forest – a unique educational institution – is a positive force in youth development. Our campers become more confident, increase self-esteem, develop social skills, make new friends, grow more independent, develop leadership qualities, become better at working in peer groups, and learn new ways to live with their disease/disorder to maintain a healthy life style. Not bad for a few days at camp!
“Please never let this camp go without donations. My 9 year old son has been going two years now and has never been so excited about a group activity like Dragonfly Forest! He truly enjoys every aspect of camp, and comes home with better transitioning skills, patience, confidence, and independence, the things I think every parent strives for their child with autism.� - Camper Parent
In 2012, we were only able to accept 1 in 3 camper applications that we received. We need your help to be able to accept more kids at Dragonfly Forest

FUNdraising at Dragonfly Forest In 2012, Dragonfly was blessed to have wonderful Friends who created and hosted incredible events to benefit The Forest. Events currently account for 42% of our annual operating budget. We cherish our now ‘traditional’ events and we welcome, encourage, cheer on, and hope that new Friends will add to our support by championing new events. Here are highlights of our 2012 Fundraisers. CAMPtail PARTY In honor of the Summer Olympics we “Let the Games Begin” in June. We ignited our Olympic caldron as our guests created their own teams and battled it out at six Olympic style events. Shelly and Larry Brown provided our very own Olympic Village at their beautiful home. Co-hosts Anne and Matt Hamilton and Marsha and Jeffrey Perelman joined our guests for an evening in support of Dragonfly Forest. 1st ANNUAL 5K RUN/WALK On a beautiful weekend in May, over 100 walkers and runners turned out at Malvern Prep to run/walk on behalf of Dragonfly campers. This event is set to become a new annual tradition on the Dragonfly fundraising calendar.
DRAGONFLY GOLF Thank you to all of our golfing friends who donated golf experiences to Dragonfly Forest. MARTINIS and MAKEOVERS On Thursday, April 26th, Bloomingdales and Dragonfly Forest held the fourth annual MARTINIS & MAKEOVERS event. Our guests enjoyed shopping, makeovers, tasty martinis and a fashion show with volunteer Dragonfly models. YOUNG FRIENDS OF THE FOREST Kids helping Kids. The Young Friends of the Forest program is designed for school age kids (elementary through college) to adopt a Dragonfly camper and help raise the money necessary to send them to camp. This year the highlight of the program was our college friends who GOT PIGGY WITH IT. They helped to fill up Piggy banks with spare change to fund sending kids to camp. 2012 VOLUNTEERS Adults come to volunteer and work at Dragonfly Forest for many reasons – some want a summer of fun and some want to give back to their community. This year Dragonfly Forest had over 151 volunteers who gave over 11,957 hours that were valued at $ 267,640.* * Value of Hours is based on Bureau of Labor and Statistics Occupational Employment Statistic and Wages, May 2011.
