The boy had minor injuries.
Windsor is about 30 miles west of Concord, the state capital, and the boulders are located near the Camp Wediko, a therapeutic and academic program for boys and girls ages 8-18 struggling with ADHD, anxiety, Asperger’s and mood disorders.
The fire departments haven't said what led to the child being stuck.
