Nature Day Camp

Nature Day Camp is the Friends of the Cobbossee Watershed’s camp with a focus on providing campers the opportunity to make connections to the natural world.

Summer Nature Day Camp

For children entering Grades 4 through 6

The quintessential summer camp experience! We are lucky to partner with the YMCA Camp of Maine to call this beautiful place our “base camp” for the week! Swimming, fishing, exploring water and forest habitats, arts & crafts, you name it we do it! All activities are geared towards connecting to nature in a nurturing and supportive environment.

This Monday – Friday camp day runs from 8:30 am to 4:30 pm. Registration includes lunch, afternoon snack, equipment and materials, and professionally trained counselors and waterfront staff.

Two sessions to choose from:

Session 1: Monday, July 22 through Friday, July 26, 2024 – 8:30 am to 4:30 pm

Session 2: Monday, August 5 through Friday, August 9, 2024 – 8:30 am to 4:30 pm

Cost is $250 per 5 -day session – includes lunch, all instruction and equipment, plus a special camp session of Tadpole Patrol aboard the Friends’ 22’ pontoon boat, the OTTER III.
