David Billingham, Camp Director
David Billingham, our Camp Director, has worked at the Southampton Fresh Air Home since 1994, first as a counselor, then assistant director, and camp director since 2000. For David the Southampton Fresh Air Home is more than a camp. He and his wife Kara met at the camp as counselors, and worked together for years to create the Home’s unique atmosphere. During the summer David and Kara and their children live at the Home with the campers and other staff. There is a sense of family in David’s work, as there is throughout the camp. Many counselors return year after year, as do more than half the campers. David’s philosophy as well as the camp’s unique environment, are steeped in principles and practices promoting safety, fun and caring.

Kiara Esteves, Assistant Camp Director
Kiara s a recent graduate with a Bachelor’s degree in Genetics. As Camp Coordinator, she helps to facilitate the enrollment of all campers each summer. An eight year SFAH alumna, Kiara joined the staff to develop and embolden SFAH programs for older campers and alumni to gather all of the tools they need for life after an amazing summer camp. Kiara’s goal for her programs is to ensure that every camper that comes to camp gets empowerment and motivation they need to thrive outside of camp. She has already helped to create and grow a mentorship program for young women in the STEM field at John Jay College of Criminal Justice while also mentoring a number of students from her alma mater, the Henry Viscardi School. Kiara is very excited to use all of this experience with the campers at the Southampton Fresh Air Home.
