Meet the 2026 A-TEAM

Executive Director

Jim Kelly, 48 Years

By day, he runs the show—by the weekend, he’s chasing birdies on the golf course. Around here, he’s our commander-in-chief and the proud holder of the most coveted nametag at camp!

Assistant Director

Frank Dellaripa, 19 Years

Frank is always in the action! While he keeps the ball rolling at camp mangaging logistics, he also runs our afterschool program. Even though he's on the go, he's never too busy to be a Dad.

Program Administrator & Special Events

Kat Berkowitz, 26 Years

Keeping us up and running – quite literally! Kat makes sure everything is signed, sealed, and delivered, including coordinating the annual Hatchet Hunt (which is possibly already hidden!).

Mini Camp & Jr. Camp Coordintor

Senior Camp 2nd-5th Grade Coordinator

Pam Kelly, 34 Years

This is Jim’s wife, Pam! She’s a pro at handling big personalities, big opinions, and all that camper "fun." When she’s not on the blacktop, she’s coordinating Photo Day—which is no small feat!

IT & Accounting Supervisor

Thomas Havard, 45 Years

If you’ve ever called the main office, chances are you’ve talked to Tom! He makes sure the parent portal is running smoothly—but did you know he’s also a mandolin player in a local band?

Buildings & Grounds Supervisor

Danny DeJesus-Wilson, 12 Years

Danny started at PDC as a Frog, worked the snack bar as a teen, and came back as an adult. Now that he’s outgrown his troublemaker days, we like to say… "everyone needs a Danny!"

Working for Our Families

We are a group of administrators who collaborate through our individual backgrounds in leadership, special events, early childhood development, elementary education, and preteen & teen education. Many of us are parents and just like you, we want to deliver a safe environment where our campers are encouraged to be their best selves. Feel free to ask us anything! We've seen it all.
