Esopus Runners 2023 For our 2023 event Esopus Runners returned again to Queens for the 5K and 10K. We were super excited to get back to our pre pandemic numbers with over 20 runners joining us. The money raised went towards the remodeling of both camper dorms. This included brand new showers, sinks and retiling of the bathrooms. These projects were completed before the beginning of the 2023 camp season.

Esopus Runners 2022 Esopus Runners 2022 was our first in person event back post pandemic. We had a small but mighty crew for the first event back and it was our first event held in Queens. Money raised in 2022 went toward a new roof on the camper dorms, reframing and sheet-rocking the entire dorm area and the addition of split air conditioning and heating units! These units now allow the space to be used all year round for various events held during the colder months.

Esopus Runners 2020/2021 For Esopus Runners 2020 our team was gearing up to run again in Long Island, until covid hit. Runners kept the spirit alive by setting out to run on their own and shared via social media. Later in the year Esopus Runners put on a virtual run in memory of Brother Bob Andrews. Money raised during this time went toward keeping the property running during the challenging times and toward the remodeling of the hallway bathrooms.

Esopus Runners 2019 For Esopus Runners 2019 our team set out to raise money to go towards our brand new pool and the pool deck furniture. The pool has been on the map to be redone for a few years now and it finally happened! This past summer more campers than ever were in the pool thanks to the brand new ramp which has made getting in and out of the pool much easier for everyone! Thanks to everyone for making 2019 such a success! Check out the slideshow for pictures of our beautiful new pool!

Esopus Runners 2018 For Esopus Runners 2018 our team set out to raise money for new golf carts. Golf carts are an essential part of the property, especially during the summer months. During camp weeks the golf carts are utilized to transport those who may have some challenges getting around the property. The golf carts ensure that all our campers are able to get to as many activities as possible during the day. With the funds raises last year we were able to purchase 3 brand new golf carts! Thanks to all who made 2018 such an amazing success!

Esopus Runners 2017 The money that was raised in 2017 was used to buy all new safety equipment for the pool, including a bunch of new lifejackets. Money was also put toward the new pool, construction is set to begin after the last day of camp. Although we will be sad to say goodbye to our 60 year old pool, we look forward to a much needed update. Picture updates to come! Thank you to all those who made our 2017 run such a success!
