We know from our years of experience that Deer Hill is a special opportunity for young people, but sometimes we have difficulty describing what “Deer Hill is”. So, we asked our staff and alumni to sum it up for us. This is the final list we came up with.

Deer Hill provides outdoor adventures and community service opportunities for young people. Find out about our summer programs, custom group trips, and our Foundation, or read our blog, by clicking on the links above. You can learn more about Deer Hill by using the links in the right sidebar.

“Thank you and your family for an AMAZING experience last summer. I constantly think back on all the memories and how truly grateful I am for the whole experience. You run a wonderful program, and it is such a great thing for young people. I encourage all my friends to give it a shot because it really is such a good thing emotionally, physically and mentally. I cannot wait to return this summer. I can’t wait to learn so many new things and meet new and amazing people as I did last summer. I am grateful for everything Deer Hill has taught me and I will carry it with me for my entire life. Much love to you and your family and everyone at Deer Hill!” Marisa, Pelham, NY
