I went there for 8 years in the 70s. I cried as my mom left me there at 8 years old. When she picked me up 8 weeks later (it was 8 weeks back then)...I cried not to leave. The experiences you get at this camp with the wide range of activities will give you lifelong skills that are rarely taught anywhere else. There is a reason it is called "The School of the Open." The traditions remain. My 12 year old has been there the last 3 summers and my daughter is at the sister camp, Onaway, just down the road for the last 2 summers. The experiences are priceless. 6 STARS!

The best decision we ever made. Our son loved Mowglis as a camper and last summer joined the staff as a counselor. Mowglis is truly a magical place.

I attended Camp Mowglis as a camper from 1949 – 1951, and have been on the staff off and on since then. Some of us old campers, and staff members still maintain contact, and we all have benefitted, and rely on the examples we experienced, and lessons gained as we learned how to make reasonable decisions for ourselves in pursuit of our own goals, and respecting our fellow Mowglis. We are raising generations of nature deprived people who would gain so much if they had the experience of spending summers with nature on Newfound Lake, and in the White mountains of New Hampshire. Both my sons, and step son attended Mowglis, and continually speak of how much the camp did for them.

Great summer camp memories! One of my favorite places on earth.

I went to Mowglis in the 80's and 90's, and I often think about those summers with fondness. The memories, experiences, and relationships helped me become the person I am today. If you can, I highly recommend you send your son; you won't regret it.

I spent 9 consecutive summers at Camp Mowglis, and rate the experience as one of the foundations for my growth as a person. I not only had a series of amazing summers, but I was taught important life skills that I could not, and did not receive anywhere else in my life. I have seen immense change and growth in the young boys and men who choose to take that terrifying 7 week leap, so much so that I can't wait until I am lucky enough to send my son. If Mowglis is even a remote consideration for your family, I urge you to take that leap and see for yourself the impact of this place.
