★★★★★John WalshCamp Rotary is everything a summer camp should be — fun, safe, and full of lifelong memories. The staff is incredible, and Director Dr. Rich Cowdell brought so much heart and experience to every session. You can truly feel the tradition and care that’s gone into this camp since 1921!
★★★★★Lewis DalvenI went to Rotary for 3 years in the mid-late 60s while in middle and high school. At that time the camp ran an Outward Bound type program called the Rangers. We did 3-4 day overnight backpacking or canoe trips, mostly in the White Mts. The experiences I had were formative and the friends I made are lifelong. I am delighted to see the tradition continues!
