summer should feel like summer
We are a no-pressure, non-competitive overnight camp located in Washington, Maine.
No screens. All heart. Ages 7-16.
During the school year, many children experience:
Academic pressure
Social comparison
Competitive sports
High expectations
Families often tell us they are looking for a no-pressure summer camp where their child can simply be themselves.
At Med-o-lark, campers experience a calm, supportive sleepaway camp without competition. They explore arts, waterfront activities, nature, and community living in a setting that prioritizes emotional safety and connection.
A no-pressure overnight camp offers something many children deeply need: space to grow without stress.
