Nestled on 320 scenic acres on the shore of beautiful Thompson Lake in Poland Maine, our summer camp provides a unique opportunity for children to develop and practice leadership and life skills that will positively impact their future. We aim to invest in the future of all children, especially those who may need more support, by offering them the chance to explore new experiences and reach their full potential. At Agassiz Village, our mission is to create a safe, joyful, and welcoming environment that gives all children a chance to thrive. We strive to foster a diverse and collaborative community, where children can feel free to express themselves and engage with their peers. Our core values of having fun, collaborating, exploring, and thriving are integral to the camp experience. We hope that through the camp experience, children will come away with a newfound sense of self-confidence, problem-solving skills, and an appreciation for the natural beauty of Maine.
