ABOUT CAMP

The University of Maine’s Cooperative Extension outreach program and its 4-H activities are designed to get youth and adults outside, connecting to the natural world. The 2013 marks the 100th anniversary of 4-H in Maine!

Tanglewood and Blueberry Cove’s camp adventures and school programs are based on “Earth Connections,” nature discovery that helps youth become creative stewards of an interconnected world.Our mission is to teach Maine youth and adults to be effective and caring citizens of the earth through affordable environmental education and nature-based experiences. Reaching over 3,500 youth and adults each year, our programming is year-round, providing affordable nature-based experiences for all ages from two locations.

The CIT program is a new two-week program at Blueberry Cove for teens looking for a leadership experience. Participants practice leadership development, build valuable outdoor skills, and discover all the ins and outs of being a camp counselor. The first week focuses on building practical skills essential to team leadership. A weekend overnight trip across the harbor to High Island features continued skill building and an opportunity to work with Maine Coast Heritage Trust on island stewardship. After returning to camp for the second week, CITs will plan lessons, shadow counselors, and lead activities for younger campers.  Upon successful completion of the program CITs may be invited to volunteer for one or two of the remaining summer camp weeks.

Leadership Adventure camps don’t just teach teenagers to appreciate nature, they show them how to thrive in it. These programs provide lessons in ecology and hard outdoor skills, while also allowing teenagers to gain an understanding of communication, decision making, group dynamics, problem solving, world diversity and sustainable living.
