 Summer is right around the corner! That means it’s time to start planning for fun-filled ac- tivities to be doing in the warm weather. Summer camps are al- ways a hot ticket for something to do to enrich kids’ minds and spirits. Eager children love to spend their days around friends and with fun counselors at sum- mer camp to create new memo- ries and have the times of their lives as they take a well-needed break from school. Luckily for us, the Newfound area offers many excellent camps where kids can spend their summer of fun.
THE MAYHEW PRO- GRAM - Mayhew’s mission: “Mayhew challenges and helps at-risk New Hampshire boys to believe in themselves, work well with others, and find their best.”
Summers 1-2
The Island Challenge - During the first two years, the boys (ages 10-12) participate in a rigorous and vibrant 25-day resi- dential summer program. From the first day to the last, the boys work together in small, tight-knit groups, tackling steep physical, social, and emotional challenges. For many of the boys, Mayhew is their first opportunity to find out who they can be and how much they can do in a setting away from outside influences.
Summers 3-6
Link-Up Expeditions -
Beginning in the third year, boys can participate in a five-day, adventure-based summer pro- gram. Trips include canoeing, backpacking, biking, and nature and wilderness skills training. In addition, boys who are 14 or older may apply to work for Mayhew, earning a salary and a dollar-for-dollar matching schol- arship for post-secondary educa- tional pursuits.
Summers 7-8
Program Extension - In the final two years of the pro- gram, Mayhew focuses on sup- porting the boys through high school graduation, assisting them in establishing goals for their lives beyond high school, brainstorm- ing ways to overcome barriers to success, and emphasizing the im- portance of giving back to May- hew and the broader community.
