In the cool, crisp air of the Pine Tree State, also known as Maine, a group of lively kids huddle together in a small town called Soccerland. Clad in their colorful soccer kits, these kids are the dynamic dribblers of Soccerland, always ready to chase the soccer ball with their nimble feet. Their sun-kissed faces beam with joy, their eyes sparkle with determination, and their laughter echoes through the lush landscapes of Soccerland. The leader of this merry tribe of soccer fanatics is a cool, imaginary character named Bounce. With a soccer ball for a head and spring-like legs, Bounce could dribble, pass, and score goals like no one else. He was a dynamo on the soccer field, moving with the agility of a squirrel and the grace of a gazelle. With Bounce leading the charge, the kids of Soccerland had transformed into the most formidable soccer team in all of Maine. But Bounce had one peculiar quirk, whenever he laughed, he'd bounce high up in the air and somersault back down, resulting in roars of laughter from his teammates. And sometimes, during a heated match, he would bounce up so high that he'd disappear into the clouds, leaving the kids gaping in awe, and their opponents bewildered. Then, just as the other team would start celebrating, Bounce would come spiraling down, landing the ball right into the goalpost, winning the game for Soccerland! These kids, along with their amusing friend Bounce, spent their days engrossed in the game they loved. It wasn't just about winning or losing for them, but about the joy they found together in Soccerland, under the vast blue skies of Maine. Above all, they knew one thing for sure - life was always fun and games when they had their soccer balls and laughter to share.

Abe and Gertrude Krasker's dream of owning a summer camp came true in 1924 when they opened Indian Acres Camp for Boys in Fryeburg, ME. The couple had fallen in love with a property they purchased from Abe's student at Essex College. Two years later, they opened Forest Acres Camp for Girls two miles down the road. When Abe passed away in 1962, his son Richard took over the management of both camps, with his mother teaching him the ropes of camp ownership. He and his wife Sandy fully took over in 1969. In 1998, the camps were purchased by Lisa and Geoff Newman who were determined to keep the tradition the Kraskers had established alive. Between 2005 and 2010, Neal and Julie Waldman co-directed camp with Lisa and Geoff. Now, almost 100 years after its founding, Indian and Forest Acres thrive under the Newman’s leadership with tradition at the heart of what makes the camp so special.
