the Maine Teen Camp difference
Maine Teen Camp offers over 35 different activities in a fully elective format - rock music, tennis, waterskiing, cooking, community service and so much more. Make the choices that interest you, that make you happy. At MTC, you're respected as the individual you are.
Most campers coming to MTC for the first time do not know any other campers. Unlike other camps, our campers haven't known each other since they were 8 years old. Only a teen camp can promise - No cliques. Just new friends.
Because MTC only caters to 13 – 17 year old campers, we are free to create activities, events and schedules that are developmentally appropriate for teens only! We don’t have to cater to “little kids” and teenagers in one program, so all our classes are challenging and fun for teens.
Diversity and inclusion are core values at MTC. By creating a space that celebrates the individual, in which every individual feels safe, all our campers are free to be their best selves. MTC provides a space for adolescents to tell their own stories, and learn more about who they are and what interests them.
Competition is by choice at Maine Teen Camp. For campers who want to play competitive team or individual sports, they will find plenty of competition. For those who wish to play for love of the game, fitness and socialization, there is plenty of opportunity to do so. And because our program is elective, those who want to concentrate on the arts, or music, or water sports are free to do so.
MTC provides a welcome respite for teens from the stresses of the school year. In addition to being device free, campers enjoy access to nature, plenty of activity, good food, an appropriate sleep schedule, ample free time, the friendship of great teens and guidance of caring staff.
Summer should be about fun & friends, learning skills school doesn't teach, and recharging emotional & creative energies. MTC is a healthy alternative to college or academic prep programs, competitive sports, or internships. Teenagers NEED a break from the school year, not more of the same.
We provide the supervision, 3:1 staffing ratio, and stability that only summer camp can provide. Teen tours or campus based programs simply can't offer the same levels of support, adult instruction and supervision.
