Mass Audubon’s Moose Hill welcomes New Summer Camp Director

“The summer is a magical time of the year because it is a time for re-charging, playing and growth” as quoted by Shawn Moriarty, the new Mass Audubon Moose Hill Camp Director and Education Coordinator. He is excited about working at Moose Hill and continuing the history of strong camp leadership. Shawn thinks that Moose Hill Camp gives kids a great opportunity to be outside with other children EXPLORING, with a hands on nature experience. It is an interactive process which generates a sense of creativity and fun.

Growing up on 120 acres of rural land in Connecticut, Shawn has always been a strong proponent of being outdoors. He has a Masters in Environmental Education and an extensive background in camp management. As a new parent, he and his wife Jennifer are the proud parents of three year old Aiden, he feels he has new perspectives for working with children.

Shawn knows that the Moose Hill camp counselors are passionate about nature and they create a sense of community to share with the kids. The goal he and his staff strive for is “no matter your background, everyone comes together, treats each other with respect and care while developing an appreciation of nature that they can take home and share with their family and friends”.

Shawn and his staff are gearing up for an active summer filled with energy and activities for all ages. To meet Shawn and find out more about Mass Audubon’s Moose Hill Nature Day Camp, please call 781-784-5691 or visit massaudubon.org/moosehillcamp or join him and his staff at the next camp open house on Wednesday, June 21 at 6pm.
