Through our camp community, our campers build strong connections and deep relationships that will last a lifetime. At Camp Tapawingo, we believe in the value of exploration and adventure. We provide our campers with the opportunity to discover the beauty of the Maine outdoors, from the lazy Saco River to the summit of Mount Katahdin.
