It is located in Westport, NY, although the first summers of the camp were spent in New Jersey.

Alumni and Reunions One of the unique characteristics of Dudley is the loyalty and support of its alumni. For most campers, their relationship with Dudley does not end with the close of the camping season but continues throughout their lives. Many former campers return as Leaders, and alumni and parents contribute to Dudley through their financial support. All friends of Dudley are invited to attend the alumni gatherings, as well as the August CDA Reunion at Camp. Between 35 and 40 alumni gatherings are held during the year throughout the country and around the world on the Dudley "Reunion Trail".This summer will be Camp Dudley's 123 summer. Campers are assigned camp numbers in ascending order based on when they first attended Camp. Alumni who attend Hymn Sing on a visit to Camp compete to see who has the lowest camp number. Camp Dudley has a newly founded sister camp in Colchester, Vermont called Camp Dudley at Kiniya. The Current Camp Dudley's Director Andy Bisselle largely made the purchasing of this camp possible so the that the daughters of Camp Dudley alumni have place to send their daughters where they can learn the same ethics and values that Camp Dudley teaches.
