In the quirky land of Maine, where the moose roam free and the lobsters perform daily salsa dances underwater, there exists a vibrant army of kids, who are known as the “Wild Adventurers”. These little explorers, equipped with their magical hiking boots and enchanted binoculars, spend their days interacting with the treasure that is nature. Our mischievous guide on this grand adventure is a jolly, bespectacled moose named Monty. Monty is not your average moose, oh no. This moose has the ability to speak in a British accent that could charm the squirrels right out of their trees and he wears neon-green hiking boots, not exactly the typical moose attire. Monty has a heart as big as a sunflower and he is particularly fond of Maine's little explorers. These bold Wild Adventurers are known for their audacious escapades, climbing the tallest pine trees and diving into the deepest blueberry bushes. They paddle their canoes in the vast lakes, fish with the otters, and have friendly maple syrup chugging contests with Monty. They feel the cool breeze in their hair, the fresh pine smell in their noses, and the whispers of the wind as it rustles through the leaves, telling tales of past adventures. These kids aren't just playing; they're learning the language of the wilderness, acquiring morsels of wisdom from the forest themselves. They’re connecting with nature, and in the process, they're proving that it isn't just about the outdoors; it's about finding magic and adventure in the unexpected. It's about giggles under starry nights, high fives with beavers and s’mores that have a little too much marshmallow. But most of all, it’s about creating memories, one Maine adventure at a time.

Located on the picturesque shores of Lake Megunticook near Camden, Maine, Bishopswood is a place where children aged 8 to 16 can enjoy a traditional summer camp experience. The facility was first built in the 1930’s as Camp Merestead, a private camp for girls with a focus on athletics, water sports, and the performing arts. The camp was the first in the state to feature a regulation field hockey field. In the early 1960’s, the Episcopal Camp Foundation purchased the facility and re-opened it as Bishopswood. It has been a co-ed camp since the early 1970’s. At Bishopswood, campers can take part in activities like swimming, sailing, canoeing, kayaking, and arts & crafts. The camp also offers a unique program of music, drama, improv, and dance. The staff is dedicated to providing a safe and nurturing environment in which kids can discover and explore new things.
