Review for Chewonki Foundation Inc, Wiscasset, ME, USA
I have sent my son to Camp Chewonki the last two years and I am amazed at the quality of his camp experience. Chewonki ties together the values and activities of a traditional New England camp, dovetailing in education on, environmental and energy responsibility. This is all done using, fun, experiential learning. Chewonki doesn't only preach, "they walk the talk". Much of the camp runs on photovoltaics, solar heated water, composting, foods grown organically right on site and they even have a solar generated hydrogen fuel cell for emergency power. In todays world this type of camp experience should almost be mandatory.
More Feedback
I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...
the way my child tries to help save energy around the house.
What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...
How well they treat the kids at camp and help them to grow and learn.
The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were...
very responsible but able to have fun and direct the childrens activities with pushing.
If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could...
educate many more kids who could not afford to attend and maybe open more camps.
