2021 Morning Program
The Morning Program is back for 2021!
The Morning Program will be back this summer!
Registration is now open for all families.
The Morning Program runs 9 am-12 noon, weekdays from
July 5-August 13. This year we are adding new outdoor programming in addition to many of our favorite activities, (Tie dye! Obstacle Courses!) and plenty of opportunities for Fishers Island families to reconnect.
IPP COVID protocols are still being developed and will be based on current guidelines from CDC and state/local authorities in consultation with IHP. They will be published prior to the start of each week, and clearly communicated to all families.
Questions about the Morning Program should be directed
to Bonnie Benkard, Morning Program Director at morningprogram@islandpeoplesproject.com.
Best,
Bonnie

About IPP
With Community, For Community
Island Peoples Project creates opportunities and fosters connections for everyone on Fishers Island by providing cultural events, educational programs, and natural spaces throughout the year.
The Island Peoples Project was founded in 1967 as an educational day camp that met on the baseball field. Its principal mission was to unite year-round residents with the summer community.
Today, 54 years later, thanks to your ongoing support IPP continues to run The Morning Program, the island’s only summer day program for all our children. Furthermore, thanks to your generosity, over the years we have been able to broaden our work.
With your help, today IPP is responsible for the care and oversight of Dock Beach and the baseball field, family-friendly holiday events such as the Fishers Island’s Fife & Drum July 4th Parade, the Halloween parade, and Easter celebration as well as the July and August Craft Fair, F.I. seniors’ dinner & cultural outings, and the House & Garden Tour.
