It’s in the Details
How is the Maine Camp experience different?
MCE owners and directors focus on child development, skill development and community building by:
- Creating bonds between older and younger campers
- Establishing appropriate anti-bullying policies
- Hiring top health and medical professionals
- Providing a tech-free environment
- Careful selection of delicious, healthy and nutritious meals and snacks
- Providing staff training that is relevant to today’s child
- Establishing open lines of communication with parents
- Maintaining year-round connections to the camp community
Parents as Partners
Every child is unique. All children listen, learn, and process things differently. Like teachers in a classroom, it is critical for camp staff to understand each child’s individual personality and learning style. Success lies in good staff selection and excellent training. Success also comes by partnering with parents, something Maine camps do exceptionally well. MCE Camp directors build a connection with each family, ensuring that every child grows, thrives and forms a lifetime connection to their camp community.
