Camp Seagull-Camp Seafarer

Ferree Trailer has been involved in the last couple of years with a YMCA camp located in eastern North Carolina. In additional to our philanthropic support our grandchildren have enjoyed their summers there making new friends and preparing themselves for the future

Children ages 6 - 16 come to Camp Sea Gull for boys and Camp Seafarer for girls from all over the world to experience a resident camping program featuring seamanship. Wide coastal waters with steady winds provide an ideal setting for a unique seafaring program. The camps also offer a wide variety of traditional camp activities such as archery, canoeing, tennis, golf, and creative arts. With strong leadership, campers develop independence, consideration and cooperation while having fun.

The Camp mission can only be achieved with the philanthropic support of people who believe that it is important. At Sea Gull and Seafarer campers develop confidence to pursue higher skill levels but, most importantly, they learn to value and respect friends from many places and backgrounds. Inspired by Camp founders, Wyatt and Lil Taylor, Camp Sea Gull since 1948, and Camp Seafarer since 1961, have achieved excellence through the support of a dedicated community of parents, volunteers and alumni.
