Thank you for choosing Fair Acres! We have been working all winter preparing for the biggest and best summer camp season ever and we are so excited to have you as a part of our 2024 family! Our goal is to create a positive experience that will last a lifetime for our campers and ensure a summer of “good ol’ camp fun”. Fair Acres Summer Camp is open to all children ages 4 – 12 and will run for four 2 week sessions. Summer camp officially opens on July 1st, which is the start of Session 1!
The program for the summer months has been designed to maximize the eight-plus acres that encompass Fair Acres. Our campus offers large green fields, fully equipped playgrounds, pickleball courts, basketball court, putting green, ball field, and plenty of woods for nature. We are also excited to bring back our popular GaGa pit this year. Our campers will enjoy teaming up with fellow campers for some friendly competition. Gross motor skills, strategy, and sportsmanship are a key part of this new camp favorite.
Throughout the summer, emphasis will be on friendships, memories, and also physical development through motor skills, arts & crafts, swimming, nature, music, and plenty of outside fun. Fair Acres camp buildings are spacious facilities that are utilized on rainy days and special activities.
Our campus also features spring-fed Shubael’s Pond. Its sandy bottom and gradual depth are the perfect place to cool off on hot summer days. Our Red Cross certified lifeguards offer important swim safety instruction to ensure children are learning essential safety guidelines when down by the shores.
Fair Acres Summer Camp counselors are hand-selected, talented, and meet our high standards of excellence. Our staff is rigorously trained and thoroughly work to meet the individual needs of each camper. Most of all, they are enthusiastic, energetic, and excited to play with your child to ensure they have the best summer ever!

Fair Acres is so excited to be able to offer our Learn-to-Skate program again this year!
This program will take place on Tuesdays beginning on February 27th at the Hyannis Youth and Community Center. The Pre-K and Kindergarten students will travel by bus to the rink (the bus ride is always a huge highlight for the children!), and after lacing up, they will take to the ice to embark on the adventure of developing their ice skating skills together.
Our Learn-to-Skate program provides for a whole lot of fun, and also supports our goal of encouraging the development of important fine motor skills, while inspiring a love of physical activity. Preparing to ice skate requires many fine motor skills, including zipping jackets, tying skates and putting on gloves, and skating improves posture, balance, flexibility and coordination, while enhancing muscle strength and endurance.
Fair Acres is very proud of the long list of alumni, who have gone on to become hockey players and figure skaters, and we are very grateful to our staff, parents, and grandparents, who share their time and talents with us each year, to help make this program a huge success!

Curious to hear what current and former families are sharing about their Fair Acres experiences? Here are a few testimonials that we’ve collected recently…
“It was the best experience for both of my daughters! They learned how to be respectful to others, made lifelong friends and learned to read and write! They miss everyone there. Fair Acres absolutely exceeded my expectations. The experience was amazing, like a big family, I am so happy my girls went there!” ~Shelley Cenzalli
“We originally heard about Fair Acres through word of mouth and through several friends who have had their children attend Fair Acres. Our experience has been amazing. We’ve been an active Fair Acres family for many years now. My son started in the Pre-K for 1.5 years, then attended Kindergarten. We also did the summer camp program for many years for both my son and daughter. My daughter stared last year in the 3’s building and is now in the 5-day Pre-K class. Quintin learned how to ride his bike without training wheels, while in the 5-day Pre-K, thanks to Miss Tracey! Quintin also learned how to swim thanks to the amazing summer camp staff and the beautiful pond. When the pandemic started, Quintin was in Kindergarten with Miss Linda. Miss Linda, Miss Shannon, Jodi and Curt went above and beyond to make sure the children could still have a somewhat normal learning experience. That Kindergarten class was so memorable, I don’t think we will ever forget it. Quintin went into first grade so far ahead of the other kids, because of all the hard work and dedication we received from all of the Fair Acres staff.” ~Brittany Burt
“I had heard wonderful things about the teachers and the experiences my friends’ kids had. My oldest, Cole, had a wonderful teacher, Miss Judy, last year who exceeded my expectations. She was caring, nurturing, and warm to my child and got him interested in learning. We love all the outside time the children get, as well…it is a beautiful campus, and they utilize it very well! I love that my youngest, Beckett, has Miss Jen and Miss Erika. They are fabulous with him! They have such a fun curriculum and are so caring and kind.” ~Erin Anderson
“We love Fair Acres! I can’t say it enough. The three-year-old program was the first time our son attended a school away from us. Not only was he learning amazing things, he was also cared for greatly by the teachers and staff. He had some anxiety issues that the teachers and staff worked with us in a variety of ways to overcome his fears. This year he attends the 5-day pre-K program now and has blossomed! He comes home teaching us all kinds of new things- about other cultures, science, nature, art, etc. He has really taken ownership of his learning. It is especially great to have him learning in an environment where the teachers value outdoor play and learning. He goes outside every day, even if there is snow on the ground. The teachers go out of their way to teach about the environment we live in so that the children get an appreciation for nature and being outside. One of the first days of pickup this year in pre-K the students were outside having a dance party on the field. The kids were having such a great time! And really, that is what every day is like! There is learning in every activity they do, but the kids don’t know it- they think they are playing. What I love the most though, is he is learning to be a good friend, citizen and person as well. The social skills development is a huge piece that we cannot teach alone as parents. Fair Acres has been incredible with teaching good values, interpersonal skills and kindness. He refers to all his classmates as his friends, not as kids in his class. All this wouldn’t be possible without the guidance and support of the owners, Curt and Jodi. They are always welcoming and open. My son loves going in to say good morning to Miss Jodi and gives her a hug every time. These are the relationships I want my son to develop with his classmates and teachers/administrators. He LOVES going to school. I really can’t say enough wonderful things!” ~Beth Anderson
