Can you believe that Maine has more than 100 summer camps?

"Maine Summer Camps" is the public face of the Maine Youth Camping Foundation (MYCF), a nonprofit organization representing 100+ Maine summer camps and adventure programs.

Kids from all over the country have been coming to camp in Maine since the late nineteenth century. While Victorian parents may not have been desperate to unglue their children’s eyes from a tiny, all-compelling screen, there has always been a sense of the green world away, a place lost to us in our civilized state (which we of course do not want to give up entirely). Sending your child to Maine is like sending them into the best parts of the wilderness!
