What a beautiful day at the Blue Hill Fair! Stop by and visit us at the Old Beano Building. Plenty of goodies, and friendly faces to chat about the history of camp. What a wonderful way to close out summer!

Hey friends ~ We are going to be at the Blue Hill Fair this year!
Stop by our booth to enter our raffle, with the chance to win two weeks at camp. We also will be selling classic Nichols merch by donations, such as soaps, chapsticks, and T-Shirts. We also will be conducting some surveys with a chance to win a thank you bag. So come join us at the Blue Hill Fair, this week's donations will go support new roofs on our camp buildings.
We can't wait to see you there!

Hello all! I hope everyone’s summer is going well so far. Just yesterday we wrapped up our first session of the season.
We’ve been combating this heat with some fun activities such as our “plug” swim, sailing, archery, gardening, and Gaga ball.

While our fist session has sadly come to an end, we have many exciting weeks ahead!

Stay hydrated, stay positive, and we hope to see you soon! ☀️🍉
