Friends Camp South China, Maine

Many of our Young Friends have enjoyed their summer experiences at Friends Camp. One of them, (no longer young) is Burney who was also a counselor there.

Tuition for camp can be very expensive. Allen’s Neck Meeting will provide up to 50% of the Friends Camp tuition for children of the Meeting Community. Any one interested should talk to Burney; on the internet: www.friendscamp.org; or see the Friends Camp Newsletter posted on the Bulletin board in the front entry way.
