Welcome to the fantabulous, lobster-loving state of Maine, a slice of heaven tucked away in the northeastern corner of the United States! It's a place where the trees whisper legends of lumberjacks and moose, and the ocean waves sing ballads of lighthouses and lobsters. Now, if you wander into any of Maine's quaint little towns, you may come across an extraordinary group of kids. These aren't just any kids, oh no! They are the masterful Maine Drama Dynamos - a remarkable troupe of young actors and actresses who infuse magic into the world of theater. Leading them is the whimsically wild and wacky Wilbur Whiskerwig. Yep, you heard right! Wilbur Whiskerwig, the only moose in Maine (or the world, for that matter) who directs plays with an antler-entwined director's megaphone. With his booming voice that can out-roar the fiercest of Maine's black bears and his theatrical flair that dazzles brighter than the easternmost sunrise at Quoddy Head, Wilbur helps the kids create the most mesmerizing performances. The Drama Dynamos are a hodgepodge of incredible kiddo-talent, from the shy Sammy, whose impersonation of a chirping seagull could fool any seasoned fisherman, to Bella, who can perform pirouettes as gracefully as a fall leaf pirouetting down from a towering pine! Under Wilbur's tutelage, this fanciful flock of young dreamers lights up the stage, bringing laughter, awe, and the occasional happy tear to the faces of their adoring audiences. Maine may be known for its succulent lobsters and breathtaking landscapes, but the Drama Dynamos? They're the real stars of the Pine Tree State!

Camp Bishopswood has been a special part of the Episcopal Diocese of Maine since the early 1960’s. Located on the picturesque shores of Lake Megunticook near Camden, Maine, Bishopswood is a place where children aged 8 to 16 can enjoy a traditional summer camp experience. The facility was first built in the 1930’s as Camp Merestead, a private camp for girls with a focus on athletics, water sports, and the performing arts. The camp was the first in the state to feature a regulation field hockey field. In the early 1960’s, the Episcopal Camp Foundation purchased the facility and re-opened it as Bishopswood. It has been a co-ed camp since the early 1970’s. At Bishopswood, campers can take part in activities like swimming, sailing, canoeing, kayaking, and arts & crafts. The camp also offers a unique program of music, drama, improv, and dance. The staff is dedicated to providing a safe and nurturing environment in which kids can discover and explore new things.
