New Hampshire, fondly known as NH, is a magnificent little gem tucked away among the lush landscapes of New England. It's a magical land where towering mountains touch the sky, glimmering lakes reflect the summer sun, and thick forests bustle with friendly whispers of Mother Nature's charming creatures. In this enchanting realm lives the coolest, goofiest character you could ever meet - Frogleton, the jolly, three-legged frog. Frogleton, wearing his bright red bandana and a cheeky grin, is the unofficial tour guide for NH's kiddie adventurers. A true outdoorsman, he hops from peak to peak, swims across the lakes, and knows every tree and every trail in his beloved forests. With his contagious laughter and endless stories, he makes every stroll, hike, and swim an unforgettable adventure. The kids of NH, who are as diverse and dynamic as the four vibrant seasons, are the life and soul of Frogleton's world. They're little explorers, embracing the gift of NH's nature, eager and ready to dive into any outdoor activity. There's nothing they love more than joining Frogleton on his journeys. From spotting elusive chipmunks, scaling the towering Mount Washington, to canoeing on the serene Lake Winnipesaukee, they make the most of their glorious surroundings. These youngsters, armed with their binoculars and unyielding curiosity, have a magical bond with nature, nurtured by their wise, goofy friend, Frogleton. Even on the chilliest days, their rosy cheeks and twinkling eyes reflect the warmth of their spirits. Together, they prove that in NH, no matter the season, nature is always ready to wrap you in an adventure, if only you're brave enough to step outside.

Wanakee is a traditional Christian summer camp and year-round retreat center, owned and operated by the New England Conference of the United Methodist Church. This camp is all about building strong relationships and a supportive community that encourages radical acceptance. The name Wanakee, which means “beautiful spiritual place in the hills” in a Native American language, was chosen by Harold E. Perkins. He was a student in religious education and theology at Boston University and the first chairperson of the New Hampshire Conference Camp and Conference Committee. At Wanakee, the staff strive to make sure each camper and retreater experiences a safe and nurturing environment. They recognize the need for children and adults to grow in their faith and explore their own spiritual journey. With activities ranging from canoeing and fishing to crafts and nature hikes, there is something for everyone. The yearly and seasonal retreats at Wanakee provide a much needed respite from the stressors of everyday life. Participants get to take some time for themselves and focus on self-care. There are plenty of activities to keep everyone engaged, from meditation and yoga to art classes and bird watching. Whatever you choose to do, Wanakee will provide a serene and peaceful atmosphere to help you recharge.
