Camp Kiwi was founded in 1952 by Lou and H. Bellotto and remains family owned and operated today. Campers are grouped by grade. Age 2 are coed groups of 10 with 3 staff members. Ages 3-5 are coed groups of 12 with 3 staff members. Starting at age 6, boys are separated from the girls. Ages 6-7 have 15-18 in a group with 3 staff members. Ages 8-13 are still boys separated from girls with 12 in a group and 1 staff member. CIT's are 14 & 15 year olds and have a training program part of the day and follow a fun-filled schedule for the other part of the day. In addition to group leaders, Kiwi also has activity specialists. Thus, making the ratio 4:1. Kiwi staff is comprised of college students, teachers, parents, coaches and artists.

The American Camp Association is a community of camp professionals dedicated to enriching the lives of children and adults through the camp experience. A cornerstone of the ACA's efforts is its Accreditation process - a way of grading how camps are doing. The Standards against which camps are measured ensure that each camp complies with approximately 300 distinct health, safety, and program-quality benchmarks. Beyond a state’s basic licensing requirements, ACA Standards address specific areas of programming, personnel, health care, emergency response, management practices, and youth development. Standards are applied to all activities in camp including aquatics, adventure and challenge activities, and travel and trip programs.
