Thank you for a great summer! Information regarding Summer Camp 2020 will be available at the end of December.
What makes Montshire Summer Camp the best science and nature camp in the Upper Valley? The highly-trained staff, terrific programs, great facilities, and the low camper-to-staff ratio.
The majority of Montshire Summer Camps are based outdoors at Montshire’s 100-acre campus in Norwich, Vermont. We also offer programs at the Ray School and Storrs Pond in Hanover, N.H., and at Crossroads Academy in Lyme, N.H.
Montshire Summer Camp Staff
Montshire Summer Camps maintain a low camper-to-instructor ratio (ranging from 4:1 for our preschool program to 6:1 in our camps for older children) ensuring individual attention is given to each camper.
The college-aged or older staff members are well-trained and knowledgeable. They have a variety of interests and experiences, and a love of working with children. Each staff member undergoes extensive training by Montshire’s full-time science educators, and is proficient in safety and first-aid procedures.
