NEW THIS YEAR!  PLEASE READ CAREFULLY!

WE HAVE 3 SEPARATE CAMPS, YES 3!
AND HERE’S GOOD NEWS, WE HAVE MORE OFFERINGS AND WILL BE ABLE TO ACCOMMODATE MORE CAMPERS !

CHIPMUNK CAMP - for campers ages 5-8
This camp will have three tent groups. Children will stay with their tent groups for all workshops and activities. Children will select their preferences for the morning workshops and 6 & 7 year olds will have the opportunity to participate in the afternoon “Backyard Camp” activities.

BOBCAT CAMP - for campers ages 7-13
This is camp as most of you remember. Campers will select their morning and afternoon activities for both weeks. Round wood tables, journalism, and Walk a Watershed are a few of the returning favorites. Scrapbooking, needle-felting, and “Life beyond the eye”, a microscopic exploration of pond organisms, are some of the exciting new workshops being offered.

OTTER ADVENTURE CAMP - for campers ages 9-13
This Camp will focus on all day outdoor adventures and overnight trips, such as backpacking the Long Trail, paddling in Acadia National Park, and climbing at Eagle Hollow Ledges!

With all these great offerings, it will be hard to decide. As long as, s/he meets the age guidelines, a child may sign up for one camp the 1st week and a different camp the 2nd week.

Lottery System-Campers will be assigned workshops based on the order they are selected in the registration lottery. The first round of the lottery is for Vershire residents and the children of workshop leaders. All other applicants will be assigned in the second round. As long as your registration forms are in by the deadline of April 28, you will be included in the lottery.
