Aryn Barer

Aryn graduated from Tufts University with a Bachelor of Arts in Child Development and received her Master’s Degree in Social Work from Columbia University. Prior to becoming the Director of Round Lake Camp, Aryn worked as a school social worker, allowing her to spend 6 summers as Head of Sports in the day camp setting and 5 seasons as the Athletic Director at Camp Nah-Jee-Wah at NJY Camps. Additionally, Aryn was part of the Round Lake team as she met campers and their families to assess camper’s needs and to complete intakes during the school year. This summer will be her fourth as Director of Round Lake Camp and she feels privileged to guide the innovative inclusion model RLC offers, as it provides a program unique to the camping world. Aryn resides in Westchester, NY with her husband Ken and her three children—all of whom have grown up at NJY Camps.
