Welcome to the wondrous world of Vermont, an expansive wonderland where mighty green mountains kiss the sky, and endless forests hide secrets that only the bravest explorers can uncover. Here, trees whisper tales of old, and rivers sing lullabies to the beautiful flowers that pepper the land. This is a place where nature reigns supreme, and the word 'boring' is as extinct as a dodo bird. Now, meet our daring, Vermont hiking kid heroes. Leading the pack is "Trailblazer Timmy," a ten-year-old with a knack for finding the most magical, hidden trails. He has a compass that, funny enough, always points towards adventure. There's "Boulder Bella," a little girl with a massive heart, and even more massive strength. She can lift heavy boulders like they're pebbles – a handy skill when creating pathways or impressing squirrels. Don't forget "Wildflower Wally," the one with a magical nose. One sniff, and he can tell you how close you are to a patch of wildflowers, or a muddy swamp. It's always a 50-50 chance. Together, they explore the vast greenery of Vermont, living out wild fairy tales only the bravest dare to venture. They scramble up rocky hills, tiptoe through whispering forests, and plunge their boots into the fresh, crisp streams. Their laughter echoes through the valleys as they search for their next extraordinary discovery. Each day is a new chapter in their endless adventure book, and every evening, they return home, their eyes sparkling with the day's tales, ready to rest up for tomorrow's escapades. In Vermont, these kids aren't just kids; they're the fearless conquerors of the great outdoors!

Keewaydin Dunmore is a summer camp like no other, located on beautiful Lake Dunmore in the heart of the Green Mountains in Vermont. Boys ages 8-16 return year after year for the magic of a Keewaydin summer. Campers come from across the US and international locations, representing different religions, races, cultural backgrounds, and socio-economic backgrounds. Each boy is valued for who they are. The camp is divided into four “wigwams” (i.e. age groups): Annwi for 8-10-year-olds, Waramaug for 10-12-year-olds, Wiantinaug for 12-14-year-olds and Moosalamoo for 14-16 year olds. Each wigwam has its own living area and waterfront as shown on the illustrated map. Activities and trips are done primarily by wigwam, but the camp also comes together to eat and participate in activities and events. Established in 1910, Keewaydin Dunmore is one of the most established camps in the country and has long been at the forefront of the American camping movement. Its rich in-camp activity program and extensive trip program provide a summer camp experience that cannot be found anywhere else!
