FAQs

Our campers range in age from 8-15 and are from all over the world. A Bridgton Sports camper wants a full camp experience packed into a shorter session. All of our campers have different ability levels, but they all love sports and want to play and improve their game!

We give our parents & campers some choice in developing their schedule. Our campers “major” in the sport of their choice and at the same time experience everything else that camp has to offer.

All of our counselors are college age students & college coaches from all over the country. Our staff members have strong morals and values and experience working with children. Most of the staff play or have played and/or coached sports at the college level.

We live in dorm rooms at Bridgton Sports Camp. Each dorm floor is age appropriate and we make sure that each camper is paired with a boy of similar likes and personality. This is what makes camp so much fun. You can also room with a friend if you want. We have common areas in the dorms where all campers can hang out together.

The food is awesome. We think that choice is important at all meals. In addition to your typical camp food like pancakes, pizza, chicken fingers and meatball subs, we always have cereal and fruit at breakfast and a full salad bar and homemade soups at lunch/dinner.

Sports are obviously a big part of camp but we have so much other stuff going on too! Campfires, Color War and trips to amusement parks, water parks, and minor league baseball games are all part of a summer at Bridgton. We also have laser tag at camp!

We always have an Evening Activity that is followed by down time in our Wolverine Den. This is a brand new building where you can get snacks and watch the Yankees and Red Sox play at the same time on our five big screen TV’s!

Campers call home once a week and we encourage parents to call camp anytime for a progress report. Campers also have mandatory letter writing once a week.

We have a resident nurse who is with us the entire summer and a Doctor on call. Bridgton Hospital is located 5 minutes away from camp.

Only electronics that aren’t WIFI capable are allowed. They must be kept in the dorms and are only used at rest hour or at night.

We encourage families to meet our director and enroll early in the year while space is available. You can also request info and we will send you a brochure/DVD. Please contact us anytime with questions or to make an appointment for a home visit.
