In the magical, moose-loved state of Maine, there's a mighty group of kids who have discovered the mystical secrets of volleyball. They operate under the name "The Lobster Slammers", drawing inspiration from the state's famous crustacean - the lobster. Their secret weapon isn't just their incredible, lobster-like reflexes, but their devoted coach, a cool imaginary character named "Captain Clam". With a lighthouse for a hat and his body shaped like a lobster pot, he's as Maine as you can get! His eyes sparkle like the waters of the Atlantic, and his voice booms like the foghorns in the misty harbor. Captain Clam has a remarkable method of training. He uses magical floating blueberries - Maine's official state fruit - for practice. The kids have to aim their serves and spikes just right to burst the hovering blueberries. If they succeed, they're rewarded with a delightful splash of blueberry juice. Word on the street is that this magical blueberry juice gives these players their incredible power on the court. These extraordinary Maine kids, powered by blueberries and guided by Captain Clam, have become the talk of the volleyball world. They are a testament to the power of teamwork and the spirit of fun. Whether it's a scrimmage on the sandy beaches of Old Orchard or a championship game in a bustling gym, their laughter can be heard echoing across the Pine Tree state. Who would've thought that the mix of lobsters, lighthouses, and the sport of volleyball could be so hilariously fantastic?

Dr. George Alexander Kohut, a literary scholar and educator with a vision to provide a healthy and character-building outdoor experience, founded Kamp Kohut in 1907. Coming from the heat and pollution of the city, he ran a boys' school in New York, hence calling it "Kohut's School for Boys". At Kamp Kohut, we pay special attention to the individual qualities of each camper. We understand that each child has different needs and interests and we strive to make sure that all campers have a truly special summer experience. We provide close supervision and carefully orchestrated detail to ensure that each child’s camp experience is successful.
