Camp Snowflake
Saddle River County Park
(Wild Duck Pond Area)
1133 E. Ridgewood Avenue
Ridgewood, NJ 07450
Camp Snowflake, opened in 1970, is a fall/spring program held on Saturdays to provide a needed social outlet for many of the campers who attend Camp Sunshine in the summer.
The Camp is open Saturday afternoons from 1:00 P.M. to 4:00 P.M., from September through May. Camp Snowflake strives to maintain the friendships forged during the summers through the sometimes long and difficult academic year. Camp Snowflake has expanded its services over the years to campers not also attending the Sunshine program and has added many exciting activities to its calendar each year. Camp Snowflake also provides one-to-one care for its campers with its corps of dedicated volunteers.
Please reach out to Camp Snowflake directly if you are interested in volunteering with them this year. Please see the contact information below.
