_Annual Rpt 2012 - Southampton Fresh Air Home
A Camp for Physically Challenged Children 2 0 1 2 A N N U A L R E P O R T PRESIDENTS LETTER 2012 Thank you all so much for your generous support of the 111th season of the Southampton Fresh Air Home. Your donations to our camp gave over 150 physically challenged children the opportunity to enjoy all of the things their able-bodied peers enjoy: swimming, sailing, sports, dancing, trips to the beach, arts, crafts, computers and so much more. Each and every day at the Fresh Air Home is a magical time for our children, many of whom come from urban settings and apartment living, where the things they do here daily would otherwise be considered impossible. Participating in the camp, in our beautiful natural setting, is an opportunity for our children to gain self-confidence, physical strength, increased agility and the recognition that they can become a contributing and special member of their communities. I am continually inspired by their courage, spirit and love of life! Enjoying time with the campers at the Holiday Reunion Party. 2012 proved to be another wonderful summer for the children. They enjoyed many special activities at the camp and around town, including a wonderful fishing trip on the Peconic Bay, tennis lessons by friends from the Meadow Club, a day at the North Sea Carnival, outings to Cooper’s Beach, excursions to the Riverhead Raceway and visits from the Southampton Animal Shelter. Other favorite activities include The Rotary Club Luncheon; our Fourth of July Party with face painter Rainbow Rosie and a video arcade by Game Street Party; floral design by the Bridgehampton Florist; and fire juggler Keith Leaf. We continue to grow our Alumni Program, offering on-line resources to campers that focus on opportunities for independent living, college and employment for people with physical disabilities. Our hope is to mentor, inspire, encourage and provide tools and information to help prepare them for life after SFAH. This program is run by several former campers who have gone on to success in college and beyond, and who have credited their time at the Fresh Air Home as the driving force in preparing them for the many challenges ahead. A special thanks to our Alumni Program Directors Kathleen Downes, Cara Liebowitz and Yomi Wrong. We held our second annual Alumni Day at the camp in July and a Holiday Reunion party in December. Over 100 guests - campers and their families -- came to Southampton for a memorable day of friends, fun, food and a visit from Santa. We continue to have our retreat weekends where campers get to enjoy autumn and spring with friends in Southampton. All of these new programs allow the wonderful friendships that begin at camp during the summer to continue to flourish as they become young adults, and beyond. As I complete my first year as President, I want to take a moment to say a special “Thank You” from the entire Board of Directors to my predecessor, Kim White, who served as President for three years. Kim’s love for the children, and her dedication to the Home and its mission helped to guide us through several difficult years with great success! Next spring, we look forward to unveiling the School House, now under restoration thanks to the generous support of Pam and Bill Michaelcheck, the Knapp/Swezey Foundation and RBC Wealth Management. Southampton continues to be a welcoming home away from home for our children. Our local businesses, neighbors and our cherished volunteers are vital to our success. I cannot thank you enough for all of your crucial, generous support that allows us to continue our mission of providing this much needed retreat and respite to so many deserving children and their families.

If we have incorrectly listed or omitted your name, we sincerely apologize. Please alert us of any errors so that we may list you correctly in our next annual report. If you have changed your name, or that of your affiliation, please call or write to us so that we may change our records and acknowledge you appropriately in the future. 12 This year, Ellen L’Esperance celebrates her silver anniversary on the Board of Directors of the Southampton Fresh Air Home. Ellen joined the board in 1987, and has served as a dedicated director for the past 25 years. Ellen first came to the Home as a volunteer, helping with one of the Home’s fundraisers. She recently recalled her first experience – a meeting at the home of Millie Brinn. There were many ladies in the room, so many that some were sitting on the floor. They were all there to get their job assignments. Back in her early days the Tea Dance at the Meadow Club was the big fundraiser, but the event became difficult, so they had to devise something to change the fundraising events. Barbara McEntee and Ellen were charged with finding a new venue. They went to the Omni, and there was a big room at the Jitney station that is now a gym. "We held a dance with an auction," Ellen recalled fondly, "that was really a lot of fun." There was also the rummage sale that raised a lot of money for the Home. It was held in the Southampton High School Gym and Auditorium. "We sold shoes, coats, and clothes. Everyone worked at these events." The rummage sale then went on to become the D-D-D. "The McEntee Picnic was very popular. I found myself one year running the Picnic. That was so great. We had very elaborate food, a big raw bar that was extremely popular. We all sat out on the beach and watched the fireworks from there. Then, as it grew bigger and bigger, and we found out about the piping plover, we moved it onto the front lawn." Ellen commented that over the years, the Home "just kept getting bigger and better. We added so many talented people to the Board who donated their expertise. They all commit to these children, in so many ways. It is a common goal that we all have.” Supporting the fundraising events and Photos by Owen Hoffmann/Patrickmcmullan.com WE SALUTE ELLEN L’ESPERANCE Ellen and Fran L’Esperance at the 2012 American Picnic having the chance to be hands on with the children has been such an important part of Ellen's long term dedication. "Everyone I bring up to the Home is awestruck. That our children who have not been blessed with great health can have such a wonderful time and enjoy each other and be so happy makes all the hard work worthwhile. And the counselors are so outstanding. I marvel at how they help our children enjoy their time here." Ellen studied political science at Columbia University, and went on to become a teacher of mentally challenged children in the New York City school system. “I love children, which probably explains my connection to the camp.” Ellen has also worked as an interior designer and has owned a contemporary art gallery and design firm, The Saxon Gallery. In 1991, then President Claire Mulholland asked Ellen to be Treasurer. "It was at this time we decided to put everything on computers. Prior to this, everything was hand written, and we 13 relied on whatever help we could get. But as the fundraising events grew, we were getting into bigger numbers. It wasn't just a rummage sale anymore. We were getting good funding, and we ultimately hired an outside accountant to help set up this new computerized accounting system. No one ever expected the success of the D-D-D. It was such a big surprise!" In 2000, Ellen became vice president under Barbara Smith. "Barbara was an amazing President. She brought a great business sense to everything the Home did. She had the right energy to move to many of the Board members together." It was during this time that the Home started the Men’s Committee. Her husband, Dr. Francis L'Esperance Jr, gave advice during the construction of the pool. "Fran had been a lifeguard for many years and he was able to help out. He also helped to raise funds for this and other special projects over the years." Ellen often would bring her children up to the Home because it was so important to her. Now, she says it is such a thrill to bring her grandchildren. This past summer her granddaughter Winston enjoyed helping and working with the children, preparing for the prom and giving tennis lessons. "She just loves it." Ellen's daughter-in-law, Ros, also serves on the Board. Ellen believes "it is the future of the home getting new people interested all the time, passing it down from generation to generation." Ellen added: "I just hope the home continues to be very successful. We are going to have financial challenges. I think that with the quality of our Board who can direct the Home, we will be able to skirt those issues and we can continue on. I’d like to see the home used more than just the summer. All the additions we made with Bricks and Mortar will hopefully allow us to be able to have children at the Home year round."
