About Camp Walden
At Camp Walden, we place a high value on the Honor System, with its principles of honesty, respect, trust, consideration, and cooperation. We emphasize trying one's best in all activities, and each day campers are scheduled to try all five of them. In addition, our trip program, team sports, special events, and cherished traditions give campers the opportunity to develop their skills, build independence, and cultivate integrity.
Finally, Waldenites are encouraged to enjoy the fun, friendships, and new experiences that each summer brings. Through it all, we strive to make Camp Walden a special place to spend the summer.
Programs
The classes, camps and experiences this business offers.
Bunk Shows
The whole camp eagerly anticipates our Saturday night bunk shows. Each age group spends a week rehearsing their lines, songs, and dances with our drama crew. Performances during 2021 included High School Musical, The Addams Family, Spamalot and Annie Get Your Gun. Bunk shows foster teamwork and provide campers with a great sense of pride and accomplishment.
Intensive Riding
Walden has a strong riding program, with two riding rings and a stable on the property. Any camper can ride, but some have a greater interest and wish to be scheduled for it more often. If your daughter participates in intensive riding, she will receive a minimum of 25 hours of riding during the summer, learn to care for the horse and the barn.
Wilderness Trips
Every camper goes on three overnight trips that are tailored to meet the abilities of her age group. Younger girls take one-night camping trips and older girls go on mountain climbing and canoeing excursions that take them out of camp for three or four days at a time.
There are many beautiful sights in Maine and New Hampshire where campers learn to appreciate a mountain view, a moose sighting, or a starlit sky on a cool summer night. The girls experience the fun and challenges of pitching a tent, cooking over a fire, and cooperating in a group. At the end of the summer, each age group takes a “pleasure trip,” designed for enjoyment and adventure.
