Once upon a time, a jolly blue lobster named Larry lived in the magnificent state of Maine, known as the Pine Tree State. The landscape was sprinkled with thick forests that whispered secrets to each other in the wind, serene lakes that mirrored the bright blue sky, and a craggy, beautiful coastline that Larry liked to call home. The children of Maine were as adventurous as the explorers of yore. They were a diverse, clever, and courageous lot, who knew how to have a good time. They loved to explore the dense forests, build sandcastles on the long beaches, and go sailing on the clear, blue waters. But their favorite activity was the Rope Course, where they would zigzag between trees, climb tall towers, balance on swinging bridges, and zip through the air like superheroes. On the course, they would laugh, cheer and sometimes even shriek when they lost their balance, only to be caught by the safety harness. Little Johnny was known to make funny faces as he swung, just to make the others laugh. Sarah, the smallest among them, was fearless and would often lead the group. And Benjamin, he was the master of the Tarzan swing, hollering like the jungle man himself, causing the birds to scatter and the squirrels to scamper up the trees. But don't worry, they would soon return, curious and eager to witness the fun. Larry, the Lobster, would chuckle from his rock, clapping his big, blue claws in applause. He loved his home, Maine, and the brave, funny children who played there, their laughter echoing through the forests and across the waters. He often thought, "There's no place like Maine, and no kids like the ones here!"

The combination of North Star’s value system, the RICHS, and our emphasis on teaching 21st century life skills is part of what sets us apart from other camps. It is the foundation of who we are as a camp, and it allows us to help each camper become the best version of themselves. The RICHS represent the moral fabric of our community and we strive every day to highlight these qualities in each camper. At North Star, there’s no award for most popular camper or best athlete. Instead, each summer we “recognize” the campers that best display each of these five values. One of our goals is for campers to not only live their life at camp by the RICHS, but for it to become their own personal value system at home. Respect: To value yourself, others and the North Star community. To be thoughtful in your actions and interactions with campers and staff. To embrace the differences and the individuality in each person Independence: To discover yourself and to celebrate whoever that may be. Independence is to try new things, challenge yourself, take some risks, make new friends and seek new experiences. To maybe take the ‘road less traveled'. Caring: To be thoughtful, kind, considerate and interested in the well being of everyone at North Star. To sometimes put the needs of others in front of your own. To provide a welcoming and helpful environment to everyone that you interact with at camp and be a friend to everyone. Honor: To do the right thing because it is the right thing to do. Be a positive leader by showing strong character and principles that deserve admiration. Be someone who challenges everyone to be a better person by sharing their sense of self with us. Spirit: To seize the moment and make the most of every day. Fully embrace the values and community of camp life. Become a beacon of contagious enthusiasm that spreads throughout the North Star community and celebrates the camp experience in your own unique way.
