Camp Thoreau, Neighbor

Camp Thoreau is the foundation for all that is now The Thoreau Club in Massachusetts. Founded in 1951 by the Pulis family makes 2016 our 65th Anniversary! While Camp has evolved tremendously, the traditions and philosophies that Dot and Click instilled have remained constant and are a sacred piece of Thoreau's programming.

65 years later Camp Thoreau's mission is still relevant...

•To empower campers and help them identify their individual strengths and to celebrate the unique personality each camper brings to our camp community.

•To provide the nurturing, support and encouragement campers need to be happy and successful.

•To develop a program in which every lesson, activity and camp event relates to our Character Constellation (friendship, responsibility, teamwork, respect, risk taking) and where each camper can strive to acheive his or her personal best.
