From Camp Pegasus Office
Camp Pegasus is a source of hope & inspiration for families who support a child with ADHD, Autism, & learning differences. Camp Pegasus is a place where children who struggle with social skills CAN interact successfully. It's a place where children who feel like they don't fit in CAN belong. It's a place where children who have trouble controlling themselves CAN handle frustration. But mostly, Camp Pegasus is a place where children who grapple with friendships CAN have great friends! Camp Pegasus is an intensive social skills training and therapy program embedded in a co-ed day camp for children ages 4-16 run by Mike Fogel, who brought you the Art of Friendship Social-Coping Curriculum & Program.

Tools for your toolbox. This is our 5th year. We keep coming back. There is no better feeling than knowing your child is safe and sound with ALL counselors and staff that understand. Play, learn, socialize in a low stress environment.
As an educator and a parent, I can whole-heartedly say that Camp Pegasus is a magical place. Camp is organized, safe, and runs like a well oiled machine. Counselors and staff are patient, compassionate, well-trained, and so positive. My son comes home each day emotionally regulated (which is difficult for him!) and most importantly…happy! The activities are high-interest and run by staff who truly know how to work with kids like my son. Social skills lessons were engaging and my son latched on to the program right away. I can’t say enough positive things about Camp Pegasus! We traveled from Chicago to attend this summer and look forward to returning again next year!
The staff and counselors at Camp Pegasus are wonderful!! They do a great job of catering to all abilities. They do not make a child do anything he or she doesn't want to do. Plenty of feedback from the counselors, as well as pictures. I highly recommend this.
