Hi! I’m Abby Bartley, Camp Director here at Happy Hollow Children’s Camp. I started back in November 2023 and have loved every part of being here. My favorite part of camp is the overall scenery and how beautiful the property is. My first summer at Happy Hollow was a memorable one. I witnessed our campers leave with the impact our staff made, a new friend, memories of their week at camp (archery, horseback riding, swimming in the lake, and so much more) and most importantly, more confidence and self-esteem in themselves. I was born and raised in Jasper, Indiana.

While growing up I played softball and basketball. I attended IUPUI, majoring in sports management. After college I started my career working with kids in a before & after school setting for the YMCA of Greater Indianapolis. While at the Y, I grew professionally where I held a program director title over summer day camp and regional director over 31 before & after school programs.

I am excited to be under the leadership of Sara Noyed, our executive director, and continue to learn and grow professionally. In my free time, I continue to enjoy watching sports and reading. I love to spend time with my two nephews and family that still reside in Jasper. Laughing and spending time with my friends is what I like the most! Hope your camper is ready to laugh and spend time with friends at camp this summer! Hope to see you there!
