In a not-so-ordinary corner of the United States, where the sun smiles warmly and the nights twinkle with fireflies, sits the pizza-shaped state of New Jersey. A place filled with sandy beaches, bustling boardwalks, and towns where everyone knows your name, it's a paradise for kids who love to explore! But there's one thing that truly sets New Jersey apart from everywhere else. It’s a secret society of children known as the "Kayak Kids Club" (KKC). They are a nifty bunch of kids who find joy in paddling their colorful kayaks across the Garden State's sun-kissed lakes, rivers and the mighty Atlantic. Leading these daring aquatic adventurers is their fearless leader, Captain Noodle Arms. Don't let his name fool you! Though his arms may appear as bendy as cooked spaghetti, he can paddle faster than a duck on a water slide! With his bright red kayak, Captain Noodle Arms leads the KKC through the sparkling waters of NJ like a pizza delivery boy on roller skates. These kids may look like your average Jersey kids, but they've got water in their veins and adventure in their hearts. They can tell the difference between a paddle and a pizza paddle, and they're the only kids in New Jersey who wear life vests to school. Not because they have to, but because they're always ready for the next unforgettable kayaking escapade. They've got the bravery of a lion, the agility of a catfish, and the appetite for fun bigger than the largest pizza in Jersey!

In 1924, a group of teachers, social workers, and businessmen noticed a need in New York City’s Lower East Side. Girls from working poor families needed a break from the hustle and bustle of city life and fresh air, sun, exercise, and community living in a lakeside mountain environment. To answer this need, East Side Vacation Camp Association was formed and began providing summer camping opportunities for girls. Seeing that boys could benefit from the same experience, the organization later expanded to serve them as well. In 1948 and again in 1955, Camp Vacamas expanded its service area to include both New York City and New Jersey and changed its name from East Side Vacation Camp Association to its current name. It also moved from Kingston, NY to its present location in the foothills of the Ramapo Mountains in West Milford, NJ. Today, Camp Vacamas continues to provide a safe, nurturing, and fun summer camp experience for young people from both New York and New Jersey. With a focus on developing social skills, building confidence, and fostering an appreciation for nature, Camp Vacamas is a place where kids can explore, learn, and grow.
