Welcome to the quirky, fun-filled state of New Hampshire - a magical place where the tree-covered mountains love to play hide and seek with the early morning fog, and the crystal clear lakes are as blue as a Smurf's birthday suit. Now, imagine a character named Finny the Fisherman Frogleap. He's not your ordinary fisherman, oh no! Finny is a jolly giant with a fishing rod as tall as a pine tree and a laugh as loud as a honking goose. In New Hampshire, you'll encounter kids just as unique as Finny! They're not your run-of-the-mill, video-game obsessed younglings. They're adventure-seeking, worm-digging, fish-catching whiz kids. You'll see them in their colorful rain boots, with fishing hats that look like they've been borrowed from a gnome's wardrobe, casting their lines into the sparkling waters. These New Hampshire kiddos approach fishing with the zeal of a pirate hunting treasure. They've got tackle boxes bursting with all kinds of bait - squiggly worms, shiny lures, and sometimes, cheese! Yes, cheese! They believe that the fish in New Hampshire have a secret love affair with cheddar. They're probably right because the fish here are as quirky as everything else. When these kids aren't fishing, they're sharing fishy tales about the ‘whopper’ that got away, or how they once caught a fish that belched bubbles. Finny loves to hear these peculiar tales, chuckling and saying, "That's New Hampshire for ya!" So, grab your fishing cap, find the wiggle-wormiest worm, and join Finny and the kids in the fish-tastic adventure that is New Hampshire!

For nearly a century, the William Lawrence Camp has been providing youth with healthy outdoor recreational opportunities. Founded in the early 1900s, the camp was named after William Lawrence, an early advocate of camping. For many years, the camp had a strong relationship with the Episcopal Church. Families often learned of the camp through their local parishes, and during the summer, visiting clergy offered Sunday services in the outdoor chapel. Through the years, the camp has continued to promote the importance of shared values and ideals. In the late sixties, the camp ended its association with the church, but has continued to embrace this same core philosophy. Today, the William Lawrence Camp offers a variety of activities and is a place for youth to have fun and form lasting memories. It is a testament to William Lawrence’s commitment to providing healthy opportunities for young people and his belief in the importance of commonly shared values and ideals.
