Whether this is your camper’s first experience at camp or your camper is an “old pro,” sending your child to camp for the summer can stir up many emotions. You want to know that your child will be well taken care of and in a safe and fun environment. At Camp Lindenmere, we have developed a reputation of providing a nurturing environment led by our directors and Senior Staff who take a personal interest in each individual camper. We put an important emphasis on maintaining a high staff-to-camper ratio to ensure proper supervision. Our staff is mature and is hired based on their teaching ability (within their specialty area) and their experience of working with children. When you choose to send your camper to Lindenmere, you are choosing more than a camp with a great program and facilities. You are choosing a second home where your child will make life-long friends and will develop important life skills including independence and self-esteem.

Our Mission Statement
Camp Lindenmere is a warm, welcoming community that gathers together year after year to experience the joy of summer camping. Here, campers grow and ...
... branch out in an environment filled with compassion and respect. They learn how to be a true friend, and the immeasurable treasure it is to have a true friend. The relationships formed and the memories made are everlasting; campers cherish and honor them long after their sweet childhood summers have passed. Camp Lindenmere and all that it stands for becomes etched into the hearts and souls of its campers and will have an enormous impact on the adults they grow to be. The qualities embraced and nurtured here will be passed from parent to child, forever renewing the Lindenmere tradition of kindness and integrity, from one generation of campers to the next.

Lindenmere is…CHOICE!
It’s all about choice. Your choice! TOTAL CHOICE! Lindenmere’s program is on the cutting edge of summer camping. Campers work with their counselors and specialty staff to select the activities they want and love. This makes each and every day challenging, unique
and fun.

Lindenmere is…ELECTIVES!
Lindenmere campers choose both majors and minors to construct their perfect day. With over fifty electives to choose from and a team of dedicated specialty staff, we ensure the success and growth of all of our campers.

Majors
Majors are selected before the beginning of each session. They are instructional and goal oriented. Major programs often culminate in a performance or production. Athletic Majors participate in competitive events.

Minors
Minors are chosen daily. They are instructional or recreational. Minors allow campers to experience a diverse array of activities.

Our Youngest Campers
General counselors are hired to help guide our youngest campers throughout each day.

Leadership Training
Campers entering the 11th and 12th grade are eligible to participate in a LT program. This program is designed to develop skills and responsibilities associated with their future role as a camp counselor.
