Our camp is located on small but beautiful Half Moon Pond with a private beach just for campers. We also have modern dining facilities, two outdoor amphitheaters, and miles of hiking trails throughout our campus. We even have a great blue heron nesting rookery!
CAMP PROGRAM INFO: Sargent Camp was established in 1912 as one of the first women's outdoor camps in the country, a revolutionary idea at the time. Since then we have become co-ed, but still uphold the founding ideals of providing outdoor experiences for campers from all walks of life.
CAMP LEADERSHIP CIT/LIT PROGRAMS: Our 15-17 year old campers take part in the LIT program, which includes an off site campout, the opportunity to lead activities from younger campers, and group service projects to help out the camp. LITs live in the Yurt Village and have dedicated LIT counselors who help them become leaders within the camp community.
CAMP SCHOLARSHIPS OR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE: Please contact us if full camp tuition is a financial hardship.
