Camp Agawam,

54 Agawam Road, Raymond, ME 04071

"I have spent 12 summers at Agawam beginning as a 9 year old camper and most recently as a 23 year old counselor. Agawam has been the most formative experience of my life and I am forever grateful. The mentors I have gained from my time as a camper have been so instrumental in shaping me into the person I am today."

"I attended Camp Agawam as a camper and decided that I wanted to come back and work there as a staff member shortly after my camper career was over. I can definitively say that whether sending your child, or as a place of employment, Agawam is an easy choice for a parent or an aspiring counselor."

"Went her for the "Maine Idea" week long camp for several years and always had an amazing time. I don't think I can quite describe just how great the experience is! The camp truly offers expernices that you don't get every day with well trained consumers to guide and help the cmapers."

"Surely it can't be that good, you say. Surely other camps compare? It really is that good. Agawam is one of the last places on Earth where a genuinely good community exists. And it exists for the sole purpose of creating a whole summer world for boys to enjoy themselves, build friendships, and grow. It's owned & run by a bunch of its alumni who all treasure their memories of Agawam so highly that they regularly donate time out of their impressive lives to keep it going since 1919. The camp itself is a cycle, of boys guided and cared for by staff, becoming the next staff members themselves when they become young adults. That guidance and culture drove immense personal growth as a child and forged a path for my adult life for which I will always be deeply thankful. If you've never experienced any of that yourself and it all sounds alien, then it's still hard to argue with easily the best physical property of any camp of its type, some best-in-industry sports programs, nationally accredited safety, the most invested, dedicated staff you'll find anywhere, an immediately welcoming and positive culture, a stellar selection of activities for a boy to learn, outstanding natural setting and location, and an unending effort to improve the camp for decades into the future. If my parents had chosen some other camp, or had not sent me to Agawam, I would never forgive them! Unparalleled in the lives it touches, the Agawam experience is the single best choice a parent can make for their son's summers. My lifelong friends, who were campers with me and whom I still talk to every day, all agree that we will make that same choice when the time comes. If you're a parent, you can make that choice now! 4 summers camper, 5 summers staff"

"I was a camper for 6 years and loved every minute of it. The staff are incredibly supportive and help to make every camper feel welcomed and successful. The traditions are endless and each day is filled with fun and varying activities. I’ve enjoyed working a few summers as staff and look forward to being a part of the Agawam family for the rest of my life."
