Explorer Camp will look a little different this summer to keep the program safe and accessible to all families. However, our goal of giving our campers the best possible summer hasn't changed.
Explorer Camp - Entering Grades 6-9 - 8am-3:30pm - The camp schedule will be posted on this page on May 30, in the forms section.
8 week registration will be available to Kennebunk residents immediately and then to non-residents on April 1 at 8:00am.
Explorer Camp is designed to introduce campers to many different experiences such as; sports, beach days, hiking, arts, field trips, indoor and outdoor games, team work challenges, community projects and much more. Campers will be encouraged to explore new ideas, opportunities, and work together as a group.
On Mondays we will stay at the school to participate in fun activities. The other 4 days of the week, we will be on the road. Campers will need to bring lunch, snacks, drinks, sunscreen, bug spray and sneakers each day (spending money is optional). With a low budget for trips, we will be having more beach days, hiking days, exploring towns/city days and less high cost amusement park trips.
