At Maine Camps, kids can water ski and sail on crystal clear lakes, play ball on pine-tree lined fields, get creative in the arts and much more. Maine Camp Experience (MCE) is a community of 40 overnight summer camps throughout Maine and a camp-planning resource with a Campcierge® who helps families choose their best camp.
With unparalleled natural beauty and top-notch land and water sports, arts, special events, trips and traditions, Maine Camps are the natural choice. “Maine Camps are set on stunning lakes and have incredible directors, facilities, activities, instruction, trips and more,” says MCE Director Laurie Kaiden.
Steeped in tradition, many of the camps have run for over 100 years. With a focus on Maine’s natural beauty, camps blend arts, sports and nature activities with trips to places like Boothbay Harbor and Acadia National Park. Campers ages 7-17 can attend full- or half-summer or shorter sessions.
Every summer, 65,000 campers come to Maine Camps “to unplug, connect with nature, have fun, make lifelong friendships and le arn new skills—all while gaining confidence, independence and resilience,” says Kaiden, a New Jersey mom whose children attended an MCE Camp. “Campers look forward to returning each summer to build on those experiences.”
Maine Camps impart values of cooperation, respect, teamwork, integrity and loyalty, and engage campers in social action initiatives to learn about helping others. Campers feel connected to their camp and the greater Maine Camp community.
“Kids benefit immensely from summers spent at Maine Camps, where they have fun, enjoy nature, expand their horizons, realize their potential and become who they are,” Kaiden says.
