And when we think of activities, our minds, of course, jump to summer, and the amazing variety of activities available at Maine Camp Experience camps! Amongst our MCE camps, the options for activity are extensive and incredible. Part of what makes Maine camps so special is the sheer breadth of opportunity— from enjoying daily waterfront activities on big, beautiful natural lakes, to hiking in Maine’s mountains, or spending time learning crafts from experienced counselors, our campers are never bored.
