<strong>Maine</strong> - There’s More to <strong>Maine</strong><br />

Dear Parents:<br />

The great outdoors is a way of life in <strong>Maine</strong> and<br />

recreational activities on our lakes, rivers and in our<br />

forests and trails are wonderful ways to experience our<br />

beautiful state. Every child should have <strong>the</strong> opportunity<br />

to see what <strong>Maine</strong> has to offer, and a great way to<br />

experience it is through camping.<br />

Thank you for taking <strong>the</strong> time to review <strong>the</strong> many<br />

children’s summer camps listed in <strong>the</strong> <strong>Directory</strong> of<br />

<strong>Maine</strong> <strong>Summer</strong> <strong>Camps</strong>. We want children to have <strong>the</strong><br />

best possible camp outing so we encourage you to take<br />

a look at <strong>the</strong> directory which offers useful information<br />

to help you choose <strong>the</strong> camp that’s most suitable for<br />

your youth.<br />

Camping can be an adventure to remember, and I<br />

hope you will encourage your child to try new things our camps have to offer like<br />

canoeing, kayaking, biking, or hiking. We want <strong>the</strong>ir experience to be as meaningful<br />

as it can be, because, not only is it about trying new things, it’s about meeting new<br />

people and making memories that will last a lifetime.<br />

Sincerely,<br />

Paul R. LePage<br />

Governor<br />

WHY A MAINE SUMMER CAMP<br />

There’s no place quite like <strong>Maine</strong><br />

For more than 100 years, families have come to appreciate <strong>Maine</strong>’s summer camps<br />

as a haven for kids to experience natural beauty and old-fashioned values.<br />

<strong>Maine</strong> is more than a place—it’s a feeling you get as soon as you arrive. Suddenly,<br />

<strong>the</strong> air’s a little fresher, <strong>the</strong> pines taller, <strong>the</strong> lakes clearer. You can hear <strong>the</strong> essence of<br />

<strong>Maine</strong> in <strong>the</strong> cry of a loon, taste it in a fresh-caught trout, and watch <strong>the</strong> sun rise a little<br />

earlier in <strong>Maine</strong> than anywhere else in America. Fact is, <strong>the</strong>re’s more of <strong>Maine</strong>, and<br />

more to <strong>Maine</strong> than <strong>the</strong> rest of New England combined: deeper forests, bigger lakes,<br />

more rugged mountains, longer rivers and more than 200 miles of coastline.<br />

Taking fun seriously<br />

<strong>Maine</strong> <strong>Summer</strong> <strong>Camps</strong> reflect all <strong>the</strong> possibilities of<br />

<strong>Maine</strong>. They can be as traditional as a canoe trip and as<br />

futuristic as rocketry. Among our more than 100 member<br />

camps, many help develop skill in sports and outdoor<br />

adventure; some teach a musical instrument; o<strong>the</strong>rs may<br />

inspire kids to plant <strong>the</strong> seeds of <strong>the</strong> next forest.<br />

Whe<strong>the</strong>r public or private, all <strong>Maine</strong> camp directors<br />

take a highly professional approach to <strong>the</strong>ir job. They<br />

work to foster growth and instill <strong>the</strong> timeless values<br />

of teamwork, responsibility and mutual respect, while<br />

always putting your child’s well-being first. That means<br />

carefully screening and training counselors, inspecting<br />

and repairing facilities, and accommodating <strong>the</strong> varying<br />

needs of children. You’ll be glad to learn that <strong>Maine</strong><br />

was <strong>the</strong> first state to inspect youth camps for health and<br />

safety, and <strong>the</strong> first to certify Trip Leaders.<br />

Helping kids reach <strong>the</strong>ir full potential<br />

Our high-tech lifestyle gives kids today opportunities never dreamed of before. But<br />

many kids miss out on some of <strong>the</strong> most important ingredients in becoming healthy<br />

adults: connection to nature; exercise and play; meaningful friendships and positive<br />

adult role models.<br />

Time spent at a <strong>Maine</strong> <strong>Summer</strong> Camp can restore balance to your children’s overscheduled<br />

days, teach life-long skills and allow friendships to flourish. It can help<br />

build a foundation for a successful and happy life. Here are <strong>the</strong> key benefits to kids<br />

of summer camp:<br />

• Community & Friendship<br />

Facebook friends are nice but <strong>the</strong>y’re no substitute for real friends and mentors.<br />

At <strong>Maine</strong> <strong>Summer</strong> <strong>Camps</strong>, kids make lifetime friends grounded in <strong>the</strong> experience of<br />

living toge<strong>the</strong>r and caring for each o<strong>the</strong>r in many ways. They learn social rules, acceptable<br />

behavior and leadership. And <strong>the</strong> positive role models kids find in <strong>the</strong>ir adult<br />

counselors can have a lasting impact on <strong>the</strong>ir lives.<br />

• Nature<br />

Kids have fewer and fewer opportunities to be outdoors.<br />

As Richard Louv makes clear in his bestseller, Last Child<br />

in <strong>the</strong> Woods: Saving our Children from Nature Deficit<br />

Disorder, nature must be experienced to be fully appreciated.<br />

Living in a natural setting is a defining experience of<br />

summer camp—especially in <strong>Maine</strong>.<br />

• Exercise<br />

<strong>Maine</strong> <strong>Summer</strong> <strong>Camps</strong> offer a range of activities that<br />

foster enjoyment of physical activity and counteract <strong>the</strong><br />

effects of too much sitting and eating in our society today.<br />

It’s a lot easier to get motivated to be active when exciting,<br />

new activities available in <strong>Maine</strong>’s beautiful outdoors are<br />

right at your doorstep…!<br />

• Activities & Play<br />

www.mainecamps.org<br />

“...a few weeks<br />

spent in a well<br />

organized<br />

summer camp<br />

may be of more<br />

value<br />

educationally<br />

than a whole<br />

year of formal<br />

school work.”<br />

Charles Eliot,<br />

former President of<br />

Harvard<br />

University<br />

<strong>Maine</strong> <strong>Summer</strong> <strong>Camps</strong> offer wonderful structured activities to meet your child’s<br />

individual interests, with ample time for kids to just be kids—to engage spontaneously<br />

in games, free play, discussions and plain old hanging out with each o<strong>the</strong>r.<br />

• Learning<br />

<strong>Maine</strong> camps provide kids with different kinds of learning from schools: <strong>the</strong>y’re<br />

more actively involved and more experientially engaged. Recent research has shown<br />

that 95% of science is learned outside <strong>the</strong> classroom.<br />

• Developing Initiative, Confidence & Leadership Skills<br />

<strong>Summer</strong> camps are a microcosm of <strong>the</strong> larger world. They are highly participatory<br />

communities where children can safely gain confidence and stretch <strong>the</strong>ir evolving<br />

capacities for leadership and initiative. Often for <strong>the</strong> first time, kids experience caring<br />

adults outside <strong>the</strong>ir family and meet peers from outside <strong>the</strong>ir circle of friends. In<br />

short, a <strong>Maine</strong> <strong>Summer</strong> Camp experience can be <strong>the</strong> opportunity of a lifetime for your<br />

children: a concentrated period of growing and learning, personal development and<br />

new friendships—along with <strong>the</strong> priceless gift of discovering of <strong>Maine</strong>’s unparalleled<br />

natural beauty.<br />
